The relationship you have with a person determines the level you know him. If you were asked to describe your husband or your friend, I believe you would say much about them because these are people you spend much time with. We find it easy to confide in people that mean much to us because we know them, and we know them because we spend time with them. Yet these people we claim we trust in, do fail us, and let us down at the time we need them most. You will agree with me that at one time or the other you have been disappointed by the very person you claim you trusted. This may not be intentional, but due to the fallen nature of man. As Christians, we believe that the only Person who will never fail us is God, but we hardly trust Him. What a contradiction! Don’t you think we need to dig deeper into the scriptures so that we know more about Him?
COCIN ( our Church ), in the year 2014 focused on the theme ‘knowing God’. The resource materials for that year centred on revealing who God is. The teachings changed my perception of God, increased my faith, my intimacy with God and reverence to Him.
The daily devotional of that year revealed some awesome attributes of God which I am delighted to share with you in this post.The amazing revelations from the holy scriptures:
