We have some straightforward ideas to share if you want to know God personally! The beauty of discovering how to know God lies in the simplicity of prayer and heartfelt conversations with a Christian pastor or a trusted friend. Together, let’s embark on this incredible journey by immersing ourselves in the wisdom held within the sacred pages of the Bible. As you begin reading God’s word, allow yourself to be captivated by its timeless tales and profound teachings. The Scripture tells us God is love (1 John 4:8), the first fruit of the Spirit is love (Galatians 5:22), and love is the greatest (1 Corinthians 13:13).

Remember that your pursuit isn’t measured solely by knowledge about God, Jesus, or even the scriptures. Rather, your ability to understand and connect with God will flourish like never before through forging an intimate bond – one nurtured through daily prayer, devoted Bible study sessions, and engaging fellowship with fellow believers. Let these invaluable practices become pillars in your life as they guide you toward finding where God wants you to be, for His love knows no bounds, and His divine presence awaits those who seek Him earnestly. When you are interested in anything in your life, don’t we tend to want to know as much as we can about it? I believe that analogy applies to God, too, don’t you agree? ~ Bill Greguska

1 John 4:6  We are from God, and whoever knows God listens to us, but whoever is not from God does not listen to us. This is how we recognize the Spirit of truth and falsehood.

 

 

I Have Tried To Know God ~ But Why Don’t I Get It?

 

The Basic Principles Of How To Know God?

How to know God? It would be wrong to say there is a cookie-cutter formula for knowing God. I say that because each of our lives is different, with different circumstances and people, all with different personalities. There are some common denominators that most Christians experience in various degrees. Do not worry because God wants to be known and is not hiding from you. He wants you to know Him. What I can do to help is point you to finding God through this website. On this page, you will find some simple principles to understand God.

 

 

How To Know That God Is The Good News?

 

Reading The Bible Daily Is Preparing Yourself To Be Used By God.

It’s the beginning of a life-long relationship with God. Another great reason to read and understand the Bible is that Jesus Christ modeled such understanding for us. Jesus often said, “It is written…” because he knew the scriptures. And so, we should know the scriptures too. Knowing scripture can also help us defend ourselves from being deceived by Satan.

How Can I Inherit Eternal Life?

(Read Matthew 4:4-10,  Mark 7:6, Read Luke 10:25-28)
“On one occasion an expert in the law stood up to test Jesus. “Teacher,” he asked, “what must I do to inherit eternal life?” “What is written in the Law?” he replied. “How do you read it?” He answered: “‘Love the Lord your God with all your heart and with all your soul and with all your strength and with all your mind’; and, ‘Love your neighbor as yourself.’” “You have answered correctly,” Jesus replied. “Do this, and you will live.”
Notice that Jesus Christ says, “Do this.” It’s not enough to merely read God’s word. It’s not even enough to understand it. We must also live it. But we can’t live with what we don’t know or don’t understand. So, an essential, lifelong spiritual discipline is reading and studying the Bible for understanding. Then, seek to DO or apply what you are learning.

So, Your Job And Privilege Is To Read The Bible Every Day.

No matter how busy you get, read at least some Bible each day…even if that means you only read two verses. If you are already following a reading plan, keep going. If you and your mentor agree on a different chapter to read, then do that.
Otherwise, read James 1 and James 2 this week. Both chapters are concise and doable. Don’t feel like you have to read both sections in one sitting. Just make sure you are reading God’s word each day. If you finish skimming these chapters, go back and re-read them. Continue reading and re-reading these chapters this week.

Remember, The Bible Is Unlike Any Other Book.

It’s not a book you read, put down, and then move on to another book. You never “finish” reading it. So, please don’t feel pressured to finish reading it. Just CONTINUE to read it.
Read the chapters above and keep reading them several times. As you read, think about how you are DOING what it says. Ask yourself, “How do I need to LIVE these verses?”
  1. What did you learn about God or yourself?
  2. How you can apply the verses to your life.

 

What Is A Fundamental Way On How To Know God?

  1. Start by praying to gain wisdom and knowledge about God and His word. If you are new to prayer, consider it talking to God as if you were talking to a friend.
  2. Humbly ask God to reveal Himself through prayer, reading the Bible, and fellowship with others.
  3. Get a Bible and start by reading Proverbs or 1 John 1-5. (think of questions while you are reading)
  4. Visit GotQuestions.org, ask questions, and get Biblical answers based on the scriptures.
  5. If you know a Christian, ask them if you could sit down and talk to them about their faith, ask questions, and start to get the answers you need.
  6. Do not restrict your questions. God tells us to come to Him like little children.
  7. You could also talk with a pastor to collect more information on your quest to find God. These things can be done in person, on the phone, email.
  8. God doesn’t want us to find facts about Him merely; He wants us to find Him with our whole being. He wants you to know Him personally and have a relationship with him, which involves intellect and heart.
  9. At some point, develop your testimony and share it with others you know and even strangers.
  10. Make a list of qualities of God and your Christian faith that you are learning about. Starting a journal is also a great idea.

The Secret Of How To Know God?

 

Some Specific Scriptures To Encourage You:

Ephesians 2:8-9 ESV

For by grace, you have been saved through faith. And this is not your own doing; it is the gift of God, not a result of works, so that no one may boast.

Galatians 5:19-21 ESV 

Now the works of the flesh are evident: sexual immorality, impurity, sensuality, idolatry, sorcery, enmity, strife, jealousy, fits of anger, rivalries, dissensions, divisions, envy, drunkenness, orgies, and things like these. I warn you, as I warned you before, that those who do such things will not inherit the kingdom of God.

James 4:7 ESV 

Submit yourselves, therefore, to God. Resist the devil, and he will flee from you.

James 2:24 ESV 

You see that a person is justified by works and not by faith alone.

James 2:14 ESV 

What good is it, my brothers, if someone says he has faith but does not have works? Can that faith save him?

Hebrews 4:12 ESV 

For the word of God is living and active, sharper than any two-edged sword, piercing to the division of soul and of spirit, of joints and of marrow, and discerning the thoughts and intentions of the heart.
