Fellowshipping with Him

Hello everyone,

How are you doing on this day? I hope well and bubbling in the Lord.

Primary Text

“And hereby do we know that we know Him…” 1 John 2v3 (KJV)

One way in which we know that we know God is that we have fellowship with Him. 1 John 1v3 (AMP) says “What we have seen and [ourselves] heard, we are also telling you, so that you too may realize and enjoy fellowship as partners and partakers with us. And [this] fellowship that we have [which is a distinguishing mark of Christians] is with the Father and with His Son Jesus Christ (the Messiah).” Some synonyms of fellowship include companionship, camaraderie, comradeship, friendship, friendliness and partnership. How wonderful it is to have communion with the Most High God; to be intimate with Him. For Him to speak to us and we to Him. We thank God for all this was made possible by God Himself, sending His Son to die for us. Ephesians 2v13 (TLB) says “But now you belong to Christ Jesus, and though you once were far away from God, now you have been brought very near to Him because of what Jesus Christ has done for you with His blood.” Our God is indeed a living God. Some serve gods made with silver, and gold, idols that are the works of the hands of man. But how many of these can boast of fellowshipping with their gods? How many can proclaim to be led, guided, comforted, taught, counseled, prayed for by their gods? But we can make that boast of our God, the only wise God, the living God, the One with whom there is no searching of His understanding, our very present help in trouble, the all-powerful, all-knowing, and ever present God. Thank God for the fellowship we have with God.
