All Knowledge

…God is greater than our hearts, and he knows everything. (I Jn 3:20) Who has understood the mind of the Lord, or instructed him as his counselor? Whom did the Lord consult to enlighten him, and who taught him the right way? Who was it that taught him knowledge or showed him the path of understanding? (Is 40:13-14) Lord, what do I know that You haven’t known from eternity? What You know surpasses me infinitely, for You know Yourself and You are infinite. Bless You. And You are intimately acquainted with the deepest thoughts of my heart. Yet You love…

And they were calling one to another:  “Holy, holy, holy is the Lord Almighty; the whole earth is full of his glory.”…

Glory

I will have mercy on whom I will have mercy, and I will have compassion on whom I will have compassion. But,” he said, “you cannot see my face, for no one may see me and live.” Then the Lord said, “There is a place near me where you may stand on a rock. When my glory passes by, I will put you in a…

How We View God Matters

Lord, I want to know You.  I want to know what You are like.  I want to live in You, but I can’t live in You if I know nothing about You.  Reveal to me the glory of Yourself.  Then will I be able to live  right. A man wanted to talk to me about a book he had read. In the book, the author, a well-known lawyer, claims that God has learned over time how to handle the human race. This lawyer apparently states that in the early days of Genesis, God did not know how to deal well…
