Knowing someone has a connection in worship. When you're trusting men, you are cursed. When you're trusting GOD, you are blessed.
Jeremiah 17:5 (King James Version)
17:5 Thus saith the LORD; Cursed be the man that trusteth in man, and maketh flesh his arm, and whose heart departeth from the LORD.
Illustration: When we are first in love, we want to know the person inside and out but forgot that we can't really do that and after years we are frustrated we can't figure out the other person. Because only GOD is worth knowing, if you know Him personally, you will learn that GOD never changes and He is much, much worth knowing. We are not frustrated in knowing GOD because what is said in the bible is always true of Him and He never fails, or changes in any of them, as it is written about GOD, so is He.
Hebrews 13:8 (Amplified Bible)
13:8 Jesus Christ (the Messiah) is [always] the same, yesterday, today, [yes] and forever (to the ages).
Here are some things worth knowing about GOD:
1. The LORD listens to us when we call to Him and He makes distinction between the godly and the ungodly.
Psalms 4:3 (Amplified Bible)
4:3 But know that the Lord has set apart for Himself [and given distinction to] him who is godly [the man of loving-kindness]. The Lord listens and heeds when I call to Him.
2.The LORD will never forsake the people who seek Him out.
Psalms 9:10 (Amplified Bible)
9:10 And they who know Your name [who have experience and acquaintance with Your mercy] will lean on and confidently put their trust in You, for You, Lord, have not forsaken those who seek (inquire of and for) You [on the authority of God’s Word and the right of their necessity].
3. The LORD always saves His anointed.
Psalms 20:6 (Amplified Bible)
20:6 Now I know that the Lord saves His anointed; He will answer him from His holy heaven with the saving strength of His right hand.
4. GOD continues His loving-kindness and His righteousness to those who want to know Him more.
Psalms 36:10 (Amplified Bible)
36:10 O continue Your loving-kindness to those who know You, Your righteousness (salvation) to the upright in heart.
5. GOD favors people who wants to know Him more. GOD will not let his enemies triumph over him.
Psalms 41:11 (Amplified Bible)
41:11 By this I know that You favor and delight in me, because my enemy does not triumph over me.
6. GOD is Faithful from generation to generation
Psalms 89:1 (Amplified Bible)
89:1 A skillful song, or a didactic or reflective poem, of Ethan the Ezrahite. I WILL sing of the mercy and loving-kindness of the Lord forever; with my mouth will I make known Your faithfulness from generation to generation.
7. GOD will give us deliverance.
Psalms 91:14 (Amplified Bible)
91:14 Because he has set his love upon Me, therefore will I deliver him; I will set him on high, because he knows and understands My name [has a personal knowledge of My mercy, love, and kindness—trusts and relies on Me, knowing I will never forsake him, no, never].
Our bodies are not designed to worry, distress, burden, concern or care but our bodies are designed to worship GOD.
B. GOD will be exalted among the people.
"I will be exalted among the nations! I will be exalted in the earth!"
Exalted or "rum" in Hebrew which means:
1. to be high
2. rise or raise
3. bring up, exalt, extol, lift up, set up on high, mount up, set up
Heathen or "goy goy" in Hebrew which means:
1. foreign nation
2. Gentile
3. troop of animals
4. flight of locusts
5. Gentile, heathen, nation, people
GOD wants to be exalted not only in the gatherings of the believers but also in the gathering of the unbelievers. This will happen because we gave our worship to GOD. Unbelievers around us or people of this world are silent about it, but everytime we go to church every Sundays, midweeks and Dawn watches, they see it and believe. Others chose to mock and persecute us but in reality they are affected by it, that's why they respond with retaliation.
Ezekiel 38:23 (Amplified Bible)
38:23 Thus will I demonstrate My greatness and My holiness, and I will be recognized, understood, and known in the eyes of many nations; yes, they shall know that I am the Lord [the Sovereign Ruler, Who calls forth loyalty and obedient service].
Ezekiel 38:23 (King James Version)
38:23 Thus will I magnify myself, and sanctify myself; and I will be known in the eyes of many nations, and they shall know that I am the LORD.
Isaiah 2:11 (King James Version)
2:11 The lofty looks of man shall be humbled, and the haughtiness of men shall be bowed down, and the LORD alone shall be exalted in that day.
Isaiah 2:17 (King James Version)
2:17 And the loftiness of man shall be bowed down, and the haughtiness of men shall be made low: and the LORD alone shall be exalted in that day.
Psalms 57:5 (King James Version)
57:5 Be thou exalted, O God, above the heavens; let thy glory be above all the earth.
GOD wants the unbelievers to exalt Him, so as believers let's exalt Him first in front of the unbelievers, so they will see and do the same.
IX. CONCLUSION:
Know GOD more through His WORDS the more You know Him, the more He reveals Himself to you and the more you are at peace with Him. Let go and let GOD. Knowing GOD in the worship services especially during Sundays reveals Himself to you more and you are more at peace.
Praise, worship and thank You very much LORD JESUS for You are my GOD and it's worth knowing You more in my worship, and this will lead people around me to exalt You in their hearts.
