Many say; where is God... You can find Him through His word [the Bible] and this work is all about finding Him.

Confession vs Knowing
Greetings.
Confession in clear and exact terms is saying and speaking the promises of God as stated in scriptures concerning a situation. This situation may either be a personal need or intercessory prayer for another. It does not necessarily involve a belief in what is said, read or confessed.
Knowing on the other hand is confession made with the understanding that God will do exactly as promised in His word. It is Faith that says " I have not seen, yet I have."
Hebrews 11 : 6 states clearly that "it is impossible to please God without faith." Faith in action is knowing.
Knowing is the difference between why one is healed and the other not. You cannot know God by your strength or Christian action. You know God by asking Him to help your unbelief. "The God kind of faith" is injected and can never be worked for just as salvation can never be worked for (Ephesians 2: 8 - 9). It is a free gift and should be asked for. No wonder many go with unfulfilled answers to prayers and problems thinking that faith can be worked upon to be attained.
The kind of faith God wants from you and I is simple trust. He [God ] then takes it from there when a demand is.made in our lives by providing the essence of the grace to reach Him through His faith active in our lives by His Holy Spirit in us. This is the secret and the process (Romans 8 : 14 - 17 ).
Remember Moses asked God "show me your glory!" God never said no! God in His love towards us provided for Moses a way to see His glory (Exodus ) Likewise, when we cry out to God for help to reach Him concerning a matter despite our unbelief, He reaches out to us and helps us. This is the kind of faith Jesus said was "Mustard Seed;" it grows by reaching out to God for help by not deceiving oneself that you are able to attain inner strenght to draw virtue from Him. No one can attain that; the reason Jesus said: " If thou canst only believe. " Only believe in simple trust and hope and God who sees all hearts will surely visit with Power and Might.
Mighty men such as Caleb an Joshua were mere men until God visited them. They had all their doubts and unbelief yet God made them mighty men of valor.
Same will be your story, my story as we hold God with our all and as our all in simple faith.
Knowing is this: God, you are my only hope and I rely on you despite my doubts of not knowing how you will solve this for me.
Have a blessed week.
