Summary

Michael shares with Habitation Church about the knowledge of God that is revealed to us in the place of loving obedience. God cannot just be researched, He must be revealed. And, He must decide to reveal Himself. God chooses what of Himself He desires to be known. He is gracious and outrageously kind, and chooses to unveil Himself to those who partner with His grace to love Him and obey Him. Special emphasis on Philippians 3:7-10, Paul shares that because of the way God revealed Himself to Him, his whole life was transformed and reconfigured. You would never be able to understand Paul, and his jealousy to love and obey the Lord, unless you understood the way that God revealed Himself to Paul. Here is the connection— revelation should produce subjection. Our desire must be the knowledge of God— To know the Lord intimately, relationally, and experientially. Not to know of Him— information about Him, but to be immersed into union that produces a greater yielding and freedom to love Him and obey Him.
