God's character under attack!

Genesis 3.1
Now the serpent was more cunning than any beast of the field which the Lord God had made. And he said to the woman, “Has God indeed said, ‘You shall not eat of every tree of the garden’?”

Since the beginning of time, nothing has been more attacked than Gods character. Unless you know God its very difficult to trust him. But if you know Him for yourself, you will enjoy him all the days of your life.

If Satan can convince you that God is a liar, then his word has no integrity, its a lie and therefore you cannot trust Him. Thats exactly what he did with Adam and Eve, Satan convinced them that God is not giving them His best. He is hiding the best from them. Had they known God intimately, they would have understood that every good and every perfect gift comes from the Father of lights, who never changes. He always gives us his best, the best. Let me tell you another thing. God is always right. Thats his character. He can never be wrong. Whatever he says, whenever he says, however he says, wherever he says it, He is always right. He cannot make a mistake. He is good which means he can never be bad. He is love therefore he can never be selfish. He is light and there is absolutely no darkness in Him. The Bible says God is not a man that he should lie nor a son of man that he should change his mind. Will he say something and not fulfill it?.

As believers we must make knowing God our number one priority. Paul said I want to know Him and the power of His resurrection. He prayed for the Ephesian church that God may grant them the spirit of wisdom and revelation that they may know God. God is not keeping himself away from us. He has given us his word and His precious Holy Spirit that we may know God fully and be completely and totally full of him. The more you know God, the easier it is to trust him. The less you know God, the difficult it is to trust God. God is good and his mercy endures forever. He is the Father of mercies, the Father of lights, the Father of spirits, the Father of glory and the Father of our Lord Jesus Christ. Hallelujah.  Jesus is Lord.
