Why know Jesus more?

Why must I know Jesus more? Many people think that it is enough just to be saved and go to church. On the contrary, life in Christ is more than that. It is a relationship that must be nurtured and developed both for earthly and eternal benefits.

Take My yoke upon you and learn of Me, for I am gentle (meek) and humble (lowly) in heart, and you will find rest (relief and ease and refreshment and recreation and blessed quiet) for your souls – Matthew 11:29 (AMP)

The thief cometh not, but for to steal, and to kill, and to destroy: I am come that they might have life, and that they might have it more abundantly – John 10:10 (KJV)

To Know Jesus is to know God and your heritance in Christ. A life without Christ is a life full of crisis. Therefore a better knowledge of Jesus keeps you farther away from crisis. In Him you live, and move and have your being. 

A close relationship with the Lord is sweet! There is so much joy and peace, contentment and liberty in Christ. You will not trade your relationship with Jesus for anything else, including money if you know Him more. You would want to be with Him all the time. When you know how much He loves you, you would want to love Him back. Taste and see that the Lord is good.

Every day with Jesus is sweeter than the day before. You would love Him more and more as you abide with Him daily. The Lord reveals more of Himself to you as you walk with Him. You will go beyond seeing Him as your saviour only, to seeing Him as your best friend, a comforter, a present help in time of need, etc. Read more...
