Jesus the knowledge bank
Ever wondered if you were making the right decision? Ask God
Ever wondered if you were in the right relationship? Ask God
Ever had issues on the job? Guess who you can ask about it....God
Ever had a hard essay to compose? Guess who can inspire you....you got it...God!!!
Yea I'm struggling with an essay right now. Look how easy it is to write this blog, I don't even have to pause to think!! Grrr. I think its time for me to tap into God for a few, seek him and ask for Him to lift up a standard in my life right now. I need an influx of understanding and wisdom right about now!!! After all this is the really the only way I see that can help me now.
Lord I need you right now to touch my mind, Lord give me the words to put in that essay, I trust you, and I know that you CANNOT fail because you are the one true God that holds the power of the world in your hand. And since I have you in me, I can't fail with you now can I? I also need an influx of faith at this time, because without faith its impossible to please you. You don't make mistakes, you are absolutely perfect Lord and so I put my trust in you because I know you have the power to see me through. Whatever is preventing me from doing this essay, I pray that you'll remove it, even temporarily. Remove doubt from my mind and help me to complete this and get a spectacular grade too. I love you Lord and I bless your holy name.

Known
Search me, O God, and know my heart: try me, and know my thoughts: And see if [there be any] wicked way in me, and lead me in the way everlasting. Psa 139:23-24
Friends, David wrote a very profound thing in this scripture. In here I see a man crying out to his creator "Search me, O God, and make love (unify yourself, become intimate with) my heart: try me (test me, push me) and become intimate with my mind." The word "know" often indicated an intimate act in marriage, consummating a couple into the one flesh of a married couple.
David was wanting God to expose his very soul, make him naked if you will, and learn everything about him. We as Christians are to follow after the Spirit and not after the flesh. The knowledge God wants us to have and wants to have of us is found in our hearts and minds. Yet, in this world so many couples struggle because they "shack up", having sexual relationships before the heart and mind are known. But GOD wants the body to follow AFTER the heart and mind. He wants to get to know you, and to develop the life-long relationship that can only happen after each member of the union studies and learns of the other.
Today we urge you to consider your relationship with God. Have you truly become ONE with him? Are you just flirting with God, holding back the most intimate part of yourself from him, while hoping he comes through for you? Go deep, as David has, and ask God to KNOW you. Ask him to make love (to unify and become ONE) with your mind and heart. When you do, we promise that a new level of awareness will take place and you will no longer "play house", you will become a HOUSEHOLD of God.
