“But the people that do know their God shall be strong, and do exploits.” - (Daniel 11:32b)
- Knowing Jesus empowers us to walk in victory every day and to be bold in the face of trials (Proverbs 28:1). God has not given you the spirit of fear, but of power, love and a sound mind (2 Timothy 1:7).
- Knowing God and understanding His perfect love for us enables us to live above fear. The Bible says in (1 John 4:18): "There is no fear in love; but perfect love casteth out fear: because fear hath torment. He that feareth is not made perfect in love.
- Knowing Jesus increases our faith in Him, and as we increase in faith, we please God more. The Bible says in Hebrews 11:6 that without faith, it is impossible to please God.
- The joy of having eternal life is drawn from knowing Jesus. John 17:3 says: "And this is life eternal, that they might know thee the only true God, and Jesus Christ, whom thou hast sent."
- knowing Jesus is to know peace because He is the Prince of peace (Isaiah 9:6)
- Knowing Jesus is knowing prosperity and abundance (Matthew 14:14-21), (2 Corinthians 8:9)
- Knowing Him is knowing divine healing and, better still, divine health (1 Peter 2:24)
- All these and more are the benefits of knowing our Saviour.
- Beloved, do you truly know Jesus?
LET’S PRAY:
Father, please reveal more of Your Son to me daily
God bless You
