That I May Know Him
Text: Philippians 3:1-21
Friendship starts from meeting someone, but it developed one way or the other and blossomed into a relationship of friendship. At a point, there was a decision to get to know one another better than just meeting. It takes time, commitment, deliberate steps aimed at knowing more about the other person. But there is also the part of opening up for the other person to know you. All these is also involved in our relationship with Christ. The only difference is that Jesus already knows us very well. Paul seeks to know Jesus the more, and even the power of His resurrection. He also explained to us that the power resides in us as Children of God (Ephesians 1:18 -). There is a reason to know the depth, the width, the length, height of the love of Jesus (Ephesians 3:17-19). There is a lot to be desired to be known of God. Do all diligence to seek and know Him. Whatever you are unable to give up for Him, it is an idol.
