Your ways, O God, are holy. What god is so great as our God? You are the God who performs miracles; you display your power among the peoples. With your mighty arm you redeemed your people, the descendants of Jacob and Joseph. —Psalm 77:13-15
As you focus on His heart toward you and encounter His passionate affection for you, then you will become more equipped to overcome temptation. Focus on four key elements of the gospel in your journey to understanding the fullness of God:
1. Who God is
2. What He has done
3. What you can receive
4. What you should do
We often place most of the emphasis on the last three: what God has done for us in Christ, the forgiveness and inheritance we receive as adopted children, and what we should do in our walk with God. The foundational element—who God is—is often tragically absent in our messages.
{ PRAYER STARTER }
Father, more than anything I want to know who You are—to me. Thank You for the things You have done for me and the blessings You have given to me. Now reveal Yourself to me for exactly who You are in my life, right now. Amen.
The great need of this hour is to make
known the personality of God.
