The Knowledge of God
The knowledge of God obtains the wisdom of God, which is found in the word of God. Jesus is the Word, so when we see Him, we see our Savior and God. Jesus became flesh and walked among us, so He could, among other things, teach us the knowledge of God. So read the four Gospels. You will observe the knowledge of God lived out in your Lord.
He will learn obedience by understanding and applying His teachings. Obtaining the knowledge of God and integrating it into your life are not passive exercises. Transformation occurs through passionate prayer as you earnestly seek to understand Jesus’ words and actions. Knowledge of God is food that satisfies the soul. It is a divine diet of grace and truth.
You read and receive God's Word so God's knowledge can transform you. Wisdom is the way to knowing God. It is discovered through toil and trust, industry and intimacy, hard work, and heaven’s illumination. Just as if you were mining the precious metals of silver and gold, you will find the knowledge of God in the discipline and determination of digging out truths that the rubble of unbelief may cover.
You rise up early to meditate in the mineshaft with your Master Jesus, and He shows you the way. As you humbly receive the knowledge of God, let others benefit from the richness of your discovery. Invest wisdom in others for the sake of God’s kingdom. You can begin by being a spiritual leader at work and home. (Nehemiah 8:13)
How can I use my knowledge of God to bless and encourage others?
