INSIGHTS INTO AN INTIMATE RELATIONSHIP
WITH GOD
Psalm 63:1-4O God, you are my God, earnestly I seek you;
my soul thirsts for you, my body longs for you, in a dry and weary land where there is no water.
I have seen you in the sanctuary and beheld your
power and your glory.Because your love is better than life, my lips will glorify
you.
So I will praise you as long as I live, and in your name
I will lift up my hands.
O God, you are my God,
earnestly I seek you;
my soul thirsts for you,
my body longs for you,
in a dry and weary land
where there is no water.
I have seen you in the sanctuary
and beheld your power and your glory.
Because your love is better than life,
my lips will glorify you.
So I will praise you
as long as I live,
and in your name
I will lift up my hands.
DRAW NEAR TO GOD TO LISTEN
Ecclesiastes 5:1Guard your steps when you go to the house of God. Go near to listen rather than
to offer the sacrifice of fools, who do not know that
they do wrong.
Psalm 46:10Be still and know that I am
God
DRAW NEAR TO GOD TO LEARN
Exodus 33:13Teach me Your ways, so
that I may know you, and continue to find favor with
You.
Psalm 119:12 Praise be to you, O LORD; teach me your decrees.
Psalm 119:27 Let me understand the
teaching of your precepts; then I will meditate on your
wonders.
Psalm 119:64 The earth is filled with your
love, O LORD; teach me your decrees.
Psalm 119:171 May my lips overflow with praise, for you teach me
your decrees.
DRAW NEAR TO GOD TO RESPOND
Isaiah 30:18-21Yet the LORD longs to be
gracious to you; he rises to show you compassion. For
the LORD is a God of justice. Blessed are all who
wait for him!
O people of Zion, who live in Jerusalem, you will weep no more. How gracious he will be when you cry for
help! As soon as he hears, he will answer you.
Although the Lord gives you the bread of adversity and the water of affliction,
your teachers will be hidden no more; with your
own eyes you will see them.
Whether you turn to the right or to the left, your
ears will hear a voice behind you, saying, "This is
the way; walk in it.”
Luke 11:27-28As Jesus was saying these
things, a woman in the crowd called out, "Blessed
is the mother who gave you birth and nursed you."
He replied, "Blessed rather are those who hear the
word of God and obey it.”
