How Can I Know God

There are many ways that we can know God/understand God/walk with God.  God has not left us in the dark regarding these matters.  In Romans 1:20, God explains to us through his word, “since the creation of world, His invisible qualities, both his eternal power and divine nature have been clearly seen”

God also warns us in this verse, they are without excuse.

So how can we know God?  We will see when reading and meditating on the following, we can know God through many ways.

We can know God through:

  • Scripture:  (2 Timothy 3:16; Deuteronomy 17:18-19; Luke 4:16; Exodus 17:14; Proverbs 7:3; Revelation 1:11)
  • Jesus:  Reading the Gospels. Matthew, Mark, Luke & John – (Hebrews 5:7 In his life on earth Jesus made his prayers and requests with loud cries and tears to God, who could save him from death. Because he was humble and devoted, God heard him).
