Intimacy With God #3: The God Who Knits Our DNA Together





Psalm 139: 13-16
13. "For you created my inmost being; you knit me together in my mother's womb.
14. I praise you because I am awesomely and wonderfully made; your works are wonderful. I know that full well.
15.  My frame was  not hidden from you when I was made in the secret place, when I was woven together in the depths of the earth.
16. Your eyes saw my unformed body; all the days ordained for me were written in you book before one of them came to be.


The Ultimate Intimacy

The ultimate intimacy of all intimacy, where it's clear that God really knew, knows and will know us,  begins with God doing the miraculous! He actually started creating you and me with the first perfect description of DNA, and He wound all our intricate body parts together. As one of the above verses says, God knit us together in our mother's womb. He was fully aware, as we were on purpose "woven together in the secret place ..."  God saw each one of our "unformed" bodies as they were being formed in our mother's wombs This is "awesome" intimacy! This is "wonderful" intimacy. Truly, such intimacy is indeed wonder filled! As God did this fabulous creation of knowing (experiencing) us, it is clear God knew us before we knew us. God knew us before Mom and Dad knew us.

The Great Big Eternal Now

But the intimacy is greater yet: Every single day of our lives were written in God's "book." before one of them came to be. I -- for one -- do NOT think of this as talking about settled predestination, but it is speaking about God's Sovereign and loving awareness. It is where God is not surprised by anything that happens to us. He knows,  all that we have talked about in the other two IWG (Intimacy with God) blogs. It's all bathed in The Divine Parental love God has for His children, as we grow up in Him.  That is why it is so important to choose Him through Jesus.  He is indeed Sovereign, as He allows us to choose freely. 

You see, God views everything from the perspective of what my mentor, Pastor George Creel, calls "the great big eternal now." He can view the past, present and future all at the same time. Or He can view each separately, at the same time. He can do so right now; meanwhile, He has designed you and me perfectly to walk with Him because of His intimate intimacy by which He knit us together ... or put us together.

The Security Of Such An Intimate Relationship

Therefore, no matter what life may hand us. No matter how good things may seem, or how bad they may seem, the ONE who truly knows our entire lives (to the core of our DNA) is not surprised by anything that may happen. And if we are smart enough to choose to walk with Him, daily, through faith in Jesus, the Christ, we have moment by moment opportunities to turn to our Wonderful Counselor, and Almighty God, to see us through. If we would only "Trust in the Lord with ALL our hearts, and lean not on our own understanding, and if we acknowledge Him (Seek His Guidance,) He WILL direct our paths." He Will "Make our paths straight." There is no way to be more intimate, and no way to be more secure.

Be Blessed Today, Especially Today:

American & "Pride"

Image
 THE MEGA PROBLEM OF "PRIDE" Our country, and especially our leaders, have stolen a God Covenant Symbol-- THE RAINBOW-- which declares God's judgment for unholy living will never be accomplished through flood waters; however,  this doesn't mean God will NOT judge a nation,  or planet that is sin filled and full of pride.  We are living in a time that Jesus describes, in the Bible,  as "The Days of Noah." He prophesied of our day being like the generation that caused God to regret HE had ever made human beings.  Why? The answer is simple: HE had this regret because of "PRIDE." How 🤔 is pride demonstrated? 1. Pride shows itself when people worship the creature rather than THE Creator. 2 . Pride is exemplified when people become the idols, and mere human pseudo truth & rules for life are contrary to Almighty God's Law, which human beings use to govern life. 3. Pride is seen in our irreverence for God's name via the confession of our mouth

We Can Be So Much More.

Image
   We Can Be So Much More:  Let us learn about the powerful identity God the Father gives us, through our being IN Christ Jesus by the power of The Holy Spirit. Let us embrace our God given Eternal Inheritance.  ( Ephesians 1:3-14)  Let us get up, each morning and give ourselves up to God. (Romans 12:1-2.)  Let us wake up! And practice Gods practice of putting off the deeds of darkness, of being empowered to behave decently, like people who live in the day time. (Romans 13:11-14) Let us cloth our selves, in Jesus, by putting on the full armor of God each day! This will make us strong in the Lord and in His mighty power, and it will give us all we need to stand against the Devil's schemes. (Ephesians 6:10-20) Let us submit to God, and resist the Devil so he will have to flee from us. (James 4:7) Learn all we can about the enemy and know he has no authority over us. But in Christ we have God's resurrection power flowing in us and through us. In Jesus Name 🙏  SoJourner

W A T C H O U T ! ! ! JESUS TEACHING ON LEADERS

  Jesus Rock Solid Teaching Regarding Picking Leaders Matthew 7:15-23      "Watch out for false prophets! They come to you in sheep's clothing, but inwardly they are ferocious wolves!  By their fruits you shall recognize them!  Do people pick grapes from thorn bushes or figs from thistles? Likewise, every good tree bears good fruit, and every bad tree bears bad fruit. A good tree cannot bear bad fruit, and a bad tree cannot bear good fruit. Every tree that does NOT bear good fruit is cut down and thrown into the fire. Thus by their fruit you will recognize them. Not everyone who says to me 'Lord, Lord' will enter the Kingdom of Heaven, but ONLY those who do the will of my Father in Heaven. Many will say to me on the day they give account of their lives, 'Lord, Lord' did we not prophesy in your name, and in you name drive out demons, and in your name perform many miracles?  Then I will tell them plainly, ' I never knew you! Away from me, you evil doers!'
