To Know Him.

John 15:7 ...and My words abide in you...
Jesus said, if we abide in Him, and His words abide in us, we will ask whatever we desire, and it will be done. Jesus is no genie, let's get that straight, HE IS GOD. So He won't give us just anything, knowing the consequences will harm us tremendously. Instead, by abiding in Jesus (who is the word John 1:1-5) His words will soon abide in our hearts. Which means our own will, will line up with God's will. 1 John 2:4 "He who says, “I know Him,” and does not keep His commandments, is a liar, and the truth is not in him."

Delight yourself in the LORD and He'll give you the desires of your heart (Psalm 37:4). Take delight in getting to know Him, in spirit and in truth. John 18:34 "Jesus answered him, Are you speaking for yourself about this, or did others tell you this concerning Me?” Don't determine your relationship with God, based on what other people have said about Him. Know God for yourself, just like you would get to know a coworker, a parent, a friend etc.! Get to know who God is in His very essence... Beautiful, merciful, graceful, savior, provider, father, friend, and so much more!

John 17:3 "And this is eternal life, that they may know You, the only true God, and Jesus Christ whom You have sent.
