Benifit #1 of God: To know
God and believe Him
Have you ever considered having an intimate relationship with God?
The level of trust we have can often be marred by heartbreak, betrayal,
or a
painful loss and can often challenge our ability to trust someone
with our
heart. God is anxious to help us overcome our unbelief, our inability
to
trust and our past. God is patient, loving and will wait for you
to open
your heart, the only thing he asks is for you to believe. The closer
you
walk with God the closer you are to freedom in Him.
Benifit #2 of God - To Glorify
God
Have you ever been in church on Sunday morning and watched
the congregation standing during a song and some lift their hands
in the
air, and tears stream down their face? Some people wonder why that
is.
Why there is such a movement of emotion in people that truly love
the Lord. One of the best things about an intimate relationship
with
God is knowing that you will change. The person you are will be
transformed to glorify God, and the closer you walk the more his
will can be revealed through you.
Benifit #3 of God - To Find
Satisfaction in God.
"Ho, every one that thirsteth come ye to the waters, and he
that hath
no money; come ye, buy and eat, yea come buy wine and milk with
out money
and with out price." Isaiah 55:1
"Wherefore do ye spend money for that which is not bread? and
your labor
for that which satisfieth not? hearken diligently unto me, and eat
ye that
which is good, and let your soul delight itself in fatness."
Isaiah 55:2
God's word is truth, and to find true satisfaction in Him all he
asks you to do is follow Him. God asked his people in the above
verses in
essence, "why do you work so hard for things that are never
enough,
can never fill you up and are endlessly insufficient?". Follow
Him and you will be fulfilled.
Benifit #4 of God - To Experience
God's Peace
Extreme grief can bring us to a place mentally where we feel like
breaking, like nothing can soothe the pain and we will never see
the light
at the end of the tunnel. Difficult circumstances leaves us asking
"why me".
Learning to trust our sovereign God will allow unexpected peace
to
wash over you like a summer rain. Reading the book of Job will show
you just what this means. Even in the worst circumstances Job believed
God and trusted His will and was rewarded for his faithfulness.
God will give
you peace, He will wrap you up in grace and hold you until the pain
stops.
Believe in Him and He will give you peace that no one else can.
Benifit #5 of God - To Enjoy
God's Presence
Christian believers that are close in their walk with God can express
the true enjoyment of God's presence. Most have quiet time, or prayer
time, that basically consists of simply spending time alone with
God. Having
quiet time with God only requires your attention and a silent room.
Even
during the worst raging storm we can smile and look to the heavens
because
He is there. God's presence brings peace, understanding, and an
unchanging
and unconditional love that no other can provide.

""Whosoever therefore shall humble himself as this little
child, the same is greatest in the kingdom of heaven. And whoso
shall receive one such little child in my name receiveth me. But
whoso shall offend one of these little ones which believe in me
it were better for him that a millstone were hanged about his neck
and that he were drowned in the depth of the sea." Matthew
18:4-6
