There is a dilemma that many Christians face, and that is, receiving answers from God or understanding the ways of God. Some things will never be perceived until one gets alone with God. God does not share his intimate secrets with just anyone! Only those who choose to take time to be alone with him will tap into the transforming power and beauty of his presence! And, this is where his glorious secrets will be made known. 

Mark 4:34 He did not say anything to them without using a parable. But when he was alone with his own disciples, he explained everything. 

When you are ready to go deeper with God, God will be more than ready to go deeper with you! Experiencing another level with God requires surrendering to, and the receiving of his love and grace! The more a person surrenders to the truth of God’s undeserved kindness, love and compassion towards them, the more they step into a life with God that that opens them up to the glorious ways of God! Psalm 103:7 He made known his ways to Moses, his deeds to the people of Israel. 

Experiencing the deeds of God is important, but knowing the ways of God is paramount! God yearns for us to know how deeply passionate and in love he is with us! God has amazing things in store for us and is longing to reveal them to us by his Spirit. Apostle Paul penned it like this, “No eye has seen, no ear has heard, no mind has conceived what God has prepared for those who love him”– but God has revealed it to us by his Spirit. 1Cor 2:9-10 

Let a new depth of surrender to the Good News of God that came through Jesus overcome you today! Let go of any preconceived ideas, and with complete vulnerability accept God’s grace and love for you! With complete trust in the blood of Jesus, refuse to live another moment in condemnation and fear. Let all anxiety and worry be replaced with the knowing that God loves you and is for you and can do beyond what you can ask or even imagine. 

As you go about your day today, please keep the following in mind. Becoming privy to the ways of God and being transformed into the beautiful image of Jesus is only possible in one special place. It is the secret and wondrous place where you are… 

ALONE WITH GOD
