Hearing Vs Experiencing God!

Just saying YES!

◦ Job 42:1-5 from the New International Version (NIV):1 Then Job replied to the Lord: 2 “I know that you can do all things; no purpose of yours can be thwarted. 3 You asked, ‘Who is this that obscures my plans without knowledge?’ Surely I spoke of things I did not understand, things too wonderful for me to know. 4 “You said, ‘Listen now, and I will speak; I will question you, and you shall answer me.’ 5 My ears had heard of you but now my eyes have seen you.

◦ Job was having a moment- He was upset! “God, Why are you doing this?”

◦ He had pride in his life but then came to a place of repentance.

◦ He heard of Jesus but then had to brace for the crucial change of “hearing about God but now seeing / experiencing God.”

◦ Again…“Hearing about God but now Seeing / Experiencing God!!!”

◦ God could no longer fit in Jobs little box!

◦ We use just enough of Gods power to maintain but there is so much more!

◦ We can talk about the stars over the oceans but it’s nothing until you experience it…my ears heard it but until you see it!

◦ Life is more than paying bills, more than living for the weekend, more than going to church…it’s so much more than pleasing people…life is walking with God and experiencing His grace and showing the rest of the world about Jesus!

◦ Even when we walk away from Him, He is still pursuing us!
