Knowing God

We serve a great and powerful God. Awed by His greatness some say that we can’t know Him. How can we know a God as Revelations 1:9 says, who is The Alpha and the Omega, the Beginning and the End, the Almighty? God wants us to know Him as much as is possible considering our limitations. We know His presence but he wants us to cognitively know Him too.  He did not give you a brain and then encourage you not to use it in regards to Him. He has revealed Himself in scripture by what and who He says He is.

We should not view this as an overwhelming list, but each as a door into which we can look to know Him better.

He is…

Savior Is. 53:5, Judge Is. 11:3, Lawgiver Is. 42:4, Sin Bearer Is. 53:6, Prince of Peace Is. 9:6, The Soul Winner John 4, the Bread of Life John 6, The Great Physician John 5, The True Vine John 15, The Good Shepherd John 10, The King John 12, The Servant John 13, the Lion of the Tribe of Judah Rev. 5:5, The Lamb Rev. 17:14….and so much more in scripture.

There are the covenant names of God. There are more of the I Am sayings of Christ. In Isaiah there are more names describing Him. Look at these as facets of a many faceted One. As you look into each one prayerfully you will get to know our  Great and Almighty God more and more. And as you get to know Him you will be transformed.
