The Great I AM!

Posted by William Wall on Monday, February 23, 2009

I'd like to publicly worship the Lord by rejoicing in the fact that He loves us so much to personally take time and interest in our lives. I was half-reading, half-sleeping through reading the Psalms one early morning this week and suddenly was very deeply convicted. I was convicted that despite how incredibly the Lord has revolutionized my life, I could skim through Psalms describing and praising the Lord for the indescrible things He has done and that He IS. I realized that I had just been on my knees (with my feet trying to stay under a blanket as a partial focus.. it's cold on the floor after all.... ) to THE God who parted the Red Sea. SAME God. And I... was trying to keep my feet warm before I skimmed the Psalms. I KNOW there is a God. yet my life was showing my own box and picture of God and not looking at the God who we cannot help but fall to our knees in awe-struck water at the thought of. This same God... cared enough to correct me, to convict me, and to still speak to me. He began to open up His word and show me that in the Psalms... the constant stream of giving thanks is the same as claiming what we know. And it is so pleasing to God. Psalm 118 says that thanks is the "gateway" to righteousness... it is the gate that opens our lives to the Lord! We are claiming what we know of who He is.. and who we are. But we have to take our words on with action in order to understand Him in a more full, rich, and wonderful way.
I am literally overwhelmed that this same God is working among us. I am amazed at how many times today the Lord brought people into my life who needed to also be encouraged by the same verses I had needed that morning and that without being humbled, disciplined, and corrected I would never have broken through my half-hearted skimming to the overwhelming joy of really knowing the Lord was speaking to me and asking me to share with others. I am humbled now to realize that yes... HE IS who HE IS. So much bigger than we can comprehend. I know that He is ready and willing to open the floodgates of revealing Himself in a far bigger way than we've ever seen.. but He's waiting for us to express our genuine, through and through desire and devotion and willingness to really, really know Him. And I CAN'T WAIT to see more :) Mary Wall

Rejoice With Us!

Please send your e-mailed testimony of God’s daily reality in your life so that we may all see more of Him, rejoice in Him, and know Him more together! You may post as often as you like! Simply send your e-mail to the 5.2project@gmail.com or drop it in the box below, and we’ll post your testimony the same day. [You may sign your name, your initials, or leave it as anonymous.] Please check back often to see more of God’s hand at work among His people!

Know. Live. Share.

NOTE:

How do we know Him? By reading the Bible. Because it is the Word of God.

This website is not for us to be… or to assume the word of God. Knowing God requires seeking Him through His word. Is has already been established and is complete.

Jesus said… the work is to believe. To act on what He says. To read with prayer. To read while bringing your life into obedience to what you are reading.

As people created by God, we cannot expect more of God until we are striving to live our lives as He has already shown us… and we cannot do that without going into His word. DAILY – and DOING something about it. That is why we must go back to our foundation – to God – through His word - and on our knees – and Know what we know, then live what we know, and share what we know. Do NOT share more than you know. This site is exclusively for a back to the basics study and acknowledgement of our Great God.

Then our part… our responsibility… and our privilege is to share what we know and to thank Him for it.

Praise the Lord!

In a hurry? Drop your thanks, praise, or what you KNOW in the box below. One line… or a paragraph… whatever you’d like – and as often as you’d like. We'll post it very quickly. Please don’t miss this opportunity to share what you know about God!
