Two questions asked by people of every nationality and culture for centuries are:

Does God exist?

Can I know him?

The Bible teaches that “ No one has ever seen God……..” (John 1:18) and ” God is spirit” (John 4-24). If no one has ever seen God and he is a spirit, then how can we know that he exists and how can we know him?

The Bible says: ” The heavens declare the glory of God and the skies proclaim the work of his hands. Day after day they pour forth speech; night after night they display knowledge. There is no speech or language where their voice is not heard. Their voice goes out into all the earth, their words to the end of the world” [Psalm 19:1-4].

The world around us speaks to us every day and tells us that God does exist.

No intelligent person would look at an expensive Swiss watch and then deny that that watch had a maker. Rather, one would acknowledge that someone somewhere had designed and put that watch together.

Furthermore, the Bible says that: ” He {Jesus} is the image of the invisible God, the first-born over-all creation. For by him all things were created; things in heaven and on earth, visible and invisible…..”[Colossians 1 :15,16]

How do we know that God exists and that we can know him?

1. The creation declares him

2. In the person of Jesus, God became a man

However, we know that God exists, and we can know him only by faith.

” And without faith it is impossible to please God, because anyone who comes to him must believe that he exists and that he rewards those who earnestly seek him” [Hebrews 11:6 ]

When by an act of faith, we put our trust in God and his son Jesus Christ, we then have that faith affirmed in our hearts, and we know without doubt that God is, that he loves us and that we can know him.

Dear reader, if you do believe that God does exist, but you do not know Him personally, please pray this simple prayer: ” God I have known about you all my life, but I do not know you personally. Please send someone into my life that can show me how to know you.”

This question has been asked by children and adults alike for centuries. The Bible speaks of the hand of God “…. I will stretch out my hand….”{Exodus 3: 20}

The face of God ” The face of the Lord is against them that do evil” {Psalm 34: 16}

The arm of God ” Surely the arm of the Lord is not too short to save…….{Isaiah 59: 1}

The ear of God “…… nor his ear to dull to hear” {Isaiah 59: 1}

However, the Bible also declares that: “… no man has ever seen God. …” {John 1: 18}

So how do we know what God looks like? “…… God himself entered mankind in the person of Jesus Christ and as we see Jesus, we see God. ” For in Christ all the fullness of the deity lives in bodily form” [Colossians 2: 9}

The first four books of the New Testament, Matthew, Mark, Luke, and John, tell us about Jesus and Jesus has revealed God the Father to us.

Jesus told the disciple Philip: ” Anyone who has seen me has seen the father” {John 14: 9}.

The writer of the book of Hebrews “ …. the Son is the radiance of God’s glory and the exact representation of his being……{Hebrews 1: 3}

The question is, what does God look like? If you want to know what God looks like, you must study the life of Jesus.

How do we know God? We know God through Jesus, for he is the revelation of God the Father who loves you and has a plan for your life.

My prayer Is that you will do this today! If you do not know how, pray this simple prayer: (God I want to know Jesus, please send someone into my life that can help me.”
