Title: At the centre of the will of Almighty God in Jesus Christ for you is that you may know Him intimately.

“Thy kingdom come. Thy will be done in earth, as it is in heaven.”
‭‭Matthew‬ ‭6:10‬ ‭KJV‬‬

“That I may know him, and the power of his resurrection, and the fellowship of his sufferings, being made conformable unto his death;”
‭‭Philippians‬ ‭3:10‬ ‭KJV‬‬

At the centre of the will of Almighty God in Jesus Christ is that you may know Him intimately. A lot of times people ask "What do you mean?" The question really is who do you know very closely? Parent, spouse, friend, colleague? You know them to the point where you can predict how they would react to a given situation- Almighty God desires you to know Him much more intimately than that. That is why the Lord Jesus Christ prayed in John 17:3 "And this is life eternal, that they might know thee the only true God, and Jesus Christ, whom thou hast sent.”(KJV). When you know God, you have eternal life. You cannot know Him without a detailed knowledge of His word as His word reveals His nature and character and His word is truth. 
‭‭His word says in John 3:16 “For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life.” (KJV). It also says “Neither is there salvation in any other: for there is none other name under heaven given among men, whereby we must be saved (except the name of Jesus Christ). (Acts 4:12 KJV). It further says in Romans 6:23 “For the wages of sin is death; but the gift of God is eternal life through Jesus Christ our Lord.”

The difficulty for many people is that the knowledge of God is in their blind spot, they do not know what they do not know. The knowledge of God opens before you a whole knew world which you may never have known existed. You need to have the desire to know Him and then take the time to seek Him through spending time in fellowship with Him in prayer and reading His word. 
Call for Action: 
Will you commit to knowing Him intimately? 
Will you commit to spending time in fellowship with Him?
If yes, the following will help you-
Prayer: Heavenly Father, in the name of Jesus Christ I thank you for sending Jesus Christ to die for me. I believe Jesus Christ rose from the dead on third day and is alive today. I ask you Lord Jesus Christ to come into my life, forgive my sin and make me a child of God. From today I commit myself to seeking you and to knowing you Lord Jesus Christ. I ask you to reveal yourself to me. In Jesus Christ's name I pray. Amen.
