Knowing the Creator of all things including our souls is possible! But how? God revealed to King David that to know him and to be close to him requires a personal endeavor of seeking his face...
When a person begins to 'let go' of their ideas of who God is and starts to accept the truth of who he is their heart begins to shift into the condition necessary that develops 'ears that will hear' and 'eyes that will see' all truth including spiritual truth. This heart condition cries, "I just want to know my Creator. Give me the truth about who he is!" The awesome reality is that the Spirit of God is wanting to reveal to each one of us individually about himself that he is personable, reachable and can be known intimately when we decide to accept the Truth about how he has made himself known to us. The daily discovery of the death of our 'self' is what all of this hinges on, and the questions to be answered are:
- Am I willing to die to my 'self' completely and in absolute surrender receive the truth of God that he has given to me in the bible?
- Am I willing to read the bible for myself and accept the truth about how God has made himself known to me?
When the Creator says to David, "Seek My Face" he has a very specific meaning in that. This call from our loving God is to hunger and thirst for the lifestyle that is a perfect reflection of his image and an exact representation of his likeness. In other words God is saying to all of us, "If you want to know me hunger and thirst for the One who's lifestyle exactly represents who I am."
- Are you willing to say that your lifestyle or the lifestyle of anyone you know is a perfect reflection of the likeness of God?
- Is there a person, in all of history, whose lifestyle reflected the likeness of God perfectly?
