Knowledge of the Holy 

The Omnipotence of God 

For the invisible things of him from the creation of the world are clearly seen, being understood by the things that are made, even his eternal power and Godhead; so that they are without excuse: Romans 1:20

Lift up your eyes on high, and behold who hath created these things, that bringeth out their host by number: he calleth them all by names by the greatness of his might, for that he is strong in power; not one faileth. Isaiah 40:26

Sometimes we look at people and define God and His power by the strength we see in man. Indeed, God sometimes uses man to manifest His power, but man’s power is pale in comparison to God’s. Even still, when God gives man power, that power still belongs to Him. Let’s say your finances are shaky, which nowadays everyone feels the pinch of the economy, and you ask God to help you. A human comes along and gives you enough money to pay your bills and get something to eat. You might think that it was man who helped you, but God used that human to show you His power to answer your prayer. However, that is only the human representation of God’s power. Our God, in His amazing omnipotence, created the heavens and the earth with only His words and gave life to man by His breath. We can only understand how powerful God is through our human comprehension, but if we look at all He has done that can be seen with our eyes, and understand that what we see barely scratches the surface, and know that there is more to His power, then maybe we will stand in awe of Him and His omnipotence.

The Wisdom of God 

Daniel answered and said, Blessed be the name of God for ever and ever: for wisdom and might are his: And he changeth the times and the seasons: he removeth kings, and setteth up kings: he giveth wisdom unto the wise, and knowledge to them that know understanding: He revealeth the deep and secret things: he knoweth what is in the darkness, and the light dwelleth with him. Daniel 2:20-2:22

Can you even believe and have faith in God if you don’t think He is altogether wise? The Creator of all with incomprehensible wisdom is more than our finite minds can understand. No matter how things look or how dismal this world seems, God sees the whole picture and works things out for our good. If you are going through a rough patch in your life, remember, it is temporary, and God is working out the details because He knows how to arrange things in our favor. Don’t give up. It takes a God with all wisdom to juggle each of our lives so that what we do affects the lives of others. He guides our steps, and if we listen intently and do what’s right in His eyes, we will not only hasten our good, but help bring about the good in others. Isn’t that mind-blowing? Not only can He work things out for our best, but He handles the minute details that guide us so that things in the lives of others also work out for their best. 

And I will bring the blind by a way that they knew not; I will lead them in paths that they have not known: I will make darkness light before them, and crooked things straight. These things will I do unto them, and not forsake them. Isaiah 42:16

The Divine Omniscience 

Who hath directed the Spirit of the LORD, or being his counsellor hath taught him? With whom took he counsel, and who instructed him, and taught him in the path of judgment, and taught him knowledge, and shewed to him the way of understanding? Isaiah 40:13-14

For who hath known the mind of the Lord? or who hath been his counsellor? Romans 11:34

If you don’t think that God can see the actions of His children, then you are sadly mistaken. He knows everything and cannot be taught anything. If a person is a blatant sinner and no longer useful to God, He will expose them and remove them from their position. It may not be in our timing, but He will spotlight that person and their sins to stop them from harming others. If, out of revenge, you try to do that yourself, you will be the one who falls. Throughout the years, we have seen televangelists fall and their corruption exposed, and even in our local church, I’ve seen Him remove people all the way down to a student of the word for going against His chosen; God doesn’t play. I’ve heard it said, “There is no discernment in this church.” I beg to differ. The person who said that was the one without discernment. God gives people discernment when they need it if it’s not one of their gifts of the Spirit. One time, God removed nearly half the people from our church, which was a lot of people, and God was so good through that transition that even the finances didn’t budge, and our church added many new members. The reason they gave for leaving was lame and was stirred up by someone who wanted to burn down everything in their path before leaving. Don’t try to tell God anything because He knows everything that has happened in our past and what will happen in our future. If someone tries to collapse or destroy something that belongs to Him, they will be the ones who see His vengeance and feel the pain of exposure. The point is not to seek your own revenge; it will only backfire. God sees all and knows all: you cannot surprise Him, and if it’s meant to be, correction will happen through Him and by Him.

The Immutability of God

For I am the LORD, I change not; therefore ye sons of Jacob are not consumed. Malachi 3:6

Every good gift and every perfect gift is from above, and cometh down from the Father of lights, with whom is no variableness, neither shadow of turning. James 1:17

Have you ever had to deal with someone around whom you had to walk on eggshells? You never know what their mood is or whether they will be in a rage. Such a person can cause you trauma and anxiety, which, if it happened in childhood, would be something later in life that you would have to overcome. Nothing upsets your nervous system quite like a psychotic person who doesn’t regulate their own actions or reactions. Humans are like that. However, God is not. We can count on Him always being the same, never in a bad mood, and always delighted by us, opening His arms to welcome us and invite us to spend quality time with Him. When all others fail us, causing us emotional harm, He will be the One who soothes and comforts us in our time of pain. 

Imagine being around someone who regulates their emotions, is stable, and handles what life throws at them with poise. We all need to endeavor to be like that, to embody the fruits of the Spirit and to change into the likeness of Jesus.

God's Infinitude 

Cast me not away from thy presence; and take not thy holy spirit from me. Psalms 51:11

“At the contemplation and utterance of His majesty all eloquence is rightly dumb, all mental effort is feeble. For God is greater than mind itself. His greatness cannot be conceived.” Novatian

This study is probably the hardest that I have endeavored to tackle. Even with a well-known writer and preacher, A.W. Tozer, using his best words to describe God’s awesomeness and greatness, it is still hard to comprehend. In my previous post, I covered what I understood of God's eternity, but infinity refers to the expanse of how He covers the entire earth, and if there are other realms beyond earth, He covers those, too. As a personal way to understand Him, when you pray or have a conversation with Him, He can hold you intimately while also doing the same for millions of others who are calling on Him at the same time; He’s unfathomable. Who are we to try to understand God? We cannot even understand the minds of other human beings. You might know them and love them, but you cannot truly know what’s going on in their minds or how they even exist. Not only that, we don’t even know ourselves, but do you know who does? The Almighty God. 

I was moving furniture around and noticed a copper end table that I had found by a dumpster. If it had been in a store, I would have bought it. All it needed was a glass top. It was fashioned to look like mangrove roots. I had seen such a sculpture in a restaurant many years ago, loved it, and wanted something like it. Then it shows up by this dumpster! How does that just happen? God knows and loves each of us infinitely more than we know or love ourselves, and wants to give us the desires of our hearts. He remembers our desires even when we don't. These things are not just coincidences; He does the same for you, but you must take notice of them and offer Him praise and thanksgiving. Your appreciation will go far, and you will see Him surprise you with even more.

The Eternity of God 

Lord, thou hast been our dwelling place in all generations. Before the mountains were brought forth, or ever thou hadst formed the earth and the world, even from everlasting to everlasting, thou art God. Psalms 90:1-2

Our finite minds cannot fathom a Being that has always been and has no beginning or end. However, we know that our bodies will not last forever, but in our minds, we don't think we will ever die, which is the right way to think because our soul will go on, whether it is with God in heaven, or otherwise, the place prepared for those who deny Jesus, our Savior. So when the Bible says "In the beginning," we know God is referring to the beginning of the earth, the creatures, and us. God is the only one we can rest assured in and find comfort in because He will always be with us, never leaving us or forsaking us. We must also realize that our time is short and that He will hold us accountable for not using it wisely while on earth, and for dedicating it to loving Him and to loving others. If you haven't already, begin collecting and storing treasures in heaven, because in this earthly realm, time is short, and they will rust or rot.

So teach us to number our days, that we may apply our hearts unto wisdom. Psalms 90:12

The Self-Sufficiency of God 

God doesn't need anything from us. He doesn't need our praise, worship, evangelism, or anything at all. He is perfect as He is, and if He weren't perfect and needed something from us, He wouldn't be worthy of our praise, honor, and worship. However, He is perfect, and we need Him! There is no salvation but through Him. He is our breath and life, our provider, and the only reason we are alive at all. Every living creature owes God worship for their life, because without Him, we wouldn't exist at all. We may never understand why God created us. Even when we leave the heaviness of our bodies behind and enter the heavenly realm, we may still not know Him fully or have all our questions answered. 

“The truth is that the Man who walked among us was a demonstration, not of unveiled deity but of perfect humanity.” A.W. Tozier

For it is God which worketh in you both to will and to do of his good pleasure. Philippians 2:13

Fountain of good, all blessing flows
From Thee; no want Thy fulness knows;
What but Thyself canst Thou desire?
Yet, self-sufficient as Thou art,
Thou dost desire my worthless heart.
This, only this, dost Thou require.

Johann Scheffler

The Self-Existence of God 

God is the creator, not created, and has always existed. This concept is hard for us to grasp because we see that everything comes from something. God is a being that has always been. Moses wanted to know His name, and He called Himself "I Am." Consider this: we sometimes say to ourselves, and possibly others, I am: for example, strong, competent, pretty, handsome, etcetera, you get the picture. We look at it as confidence; however, could we be taking the place of God when we say those words? Are we replacing God with ourselves? I wonder if we should remove those words from our vocabulary. Should we pay attention to how we refer to ourselves and, for example, rather than say, I am a writer, and sin by calling ourselves by God's name, say something like, " My profession is a writer, or " My job is a writer. Do we profess to be God when we say "I Am" and make ourselves a "little g" god? What might be hard is catching those words before they come out of our mouths, because I must admit, they have always been a part of my vocabulary.  Is changing our wording necessary? I can't be sure, but maybe when we conclude, acknowledge that we are created and not The Creator, and submit to His authority, we might refrain from calling ourselves God by using His name as a description. You must decide for yourself what you should do.

“A moral being, created to worship before the throne of God, sits on the throne of his own selfhood and from that elevated position declares, ”I AM.” That is sin in its concentrated essence; yet because it is natural it appears to be good. It is only when in the gospel the soul is brought before the face of the Most Holy One without the protective shield of ignorance that the frightful moral incongruity is brought home to the conscience.” A.W. Tozer 

And God said unto Moses, I AM THAT I AM: and he said, Thus shalt thou say unto the children of Israel, I AM hath sent me unto you. Exodus 3:14

If you want to dig a little deeper, look at what the words "I Am" mean!

H1961   (Strong)

הָיָה

hâyâh

haw-yaw'

A primitive root (compare H1933); to exist, that is, be or become, come to pass (always emphatic, and not a mere copula or auxiliary): - beacon, X altogether, be (-come, accomplished, committed, like), break, cause, come (to pass), continue, do, faint, fall, + follow, happen, X have, last, pertain, quit (one-) self, require, X use.

The Holy Trinity 

O Blessed Trinity!

O simplest Majesty! O Three in One!

Thou art for ever God alone.

Holy Trinity!

Blessed equal Three.

One God, we praise Thee.

Frederick W. Faber

Our minds cannot fathom the trinity; it's unexplainable. Many have tried. I've heard it explained as an egg with a shell, a white, and a yolk, but you can break an egg and separate each part. However, God is always one, and His parts work simultaneously. We can explain His functions separately, but He is never divided; He is always One. 

I and my Father are one. John 10:30

And God said, Let us make man in our image, after our likeness: Genesis 1:26a

If the trinity could be explained in human terms, we would dismiss God's magnificence to commonality. We must refrain from trying to divide Him into separate, stand-alone parts; however, His attributes can be explained and included as different parts of his character. Is your mind spinning now? Mine is! Because He is hard to explain, it gives more credence to His majesty. If we could explain Him, we would begin to idolize something that is not Him. It is human to try to picture Him as we worship, but if you can, refrain from seeing God as human, because He is not. He took on the form of a human in Jesus, but to be unable to see that He was all but a human is blindness; no human could do what Jesus did. 

Who, being in the form of God, thought it not robbery to be equal with God: But made himself of no reputation, and took upon him the form of a servant, and was made in the likeness of men: Philippians 2:6-7

My worship of the Father, Son, and Holy Spirit changed, and I will no longer feel the need to worship them separately, but together as the one and only Holy God, the Father, just as Jesus taught the disciples to pray, Our Father, when he taught them The Lord's Prayer. 

Believe me that I am in the Father, and the Father in me: or else believe me for the very works' sake. John 14:11

A Divine Attribute: Something True About God 

Only to sit and think of God, 

Oh what a joy it is!

To think the thought, to breath the Name 

Earth has no higher bliss.

Frederick W. Faber

We are always in such a rush, whether to get to where we are going or finish a task, but pondering the Almighty is what we should slow down for and feel. We may not realize it, but the spiritual and saving knowledge of God is our greatest need. 

Acquaint now thyself with him, and be at peace: thereby good shall come unto thee. Job 22:21

My brain is still steered to the point that contemplating the wonder of our Creator is still daunting, but if we don’t try to seek Him and attempt to understand His magnificence, how could we get past our struggle to understand Him if we don’t, at the very least, try? It’s worth it to create a new neural pathway that solely thinks about God. How do we do that? A habit is created by completing a task daily for twenty-one days. If we begin today, by the end of this series, we should all be focused on our Creator, which will give us a more powerful prayer life. Knowing who we are talking to will make our time devoted to Him more precious. God reveals Himself through His Word and through creation, but if you want a personal revelation, ask Him to show you something about Himself and wait for the answer. In my experience, He answers you before you even get the question out. When you show interest in who He is, He will make Himself known to you.

Knowledge of the Holy

Using A.W. Tozer's book Knowledge of the Holy as a reference, we will attempt to uncover a description of God from what he says about Himself in the Bible. This study will last about three weeks, but our goal should be to learn as much about Him as we can throughout our entire lifetimes. This study will give us a good start to build upon. 

God Incomprehensible

We should understand that there will never be an accurate description of God, and our attempt to picture Him in our minds could become idolatry because we would be picturing Him as things we've seen in the flesh, but He is nothing like what we have ever seen. When Ezekiel tried to describe what he saw, he had a hard time finding words to depict Him accurately and mostly described the other beings he saw with him. 

Then the glory of the LORD went up from the cherub, and stood over the threshold of the house; and the house was filledwith the cloud, and the court was full of the brightness of the LORD'S glory.  Ezekiel 10:4

" The intellect knoweth that it is ignorant of Thee," said Nicholas of Cusa," because it knoweth Thou canst not be known, unless the unknowable could be known, and the invisible beheld, and the inaccessible attained." 

God is unlike anything we've ever seen, and our imagination cannot contain Him. Worship Him without a picture in your mind's eye because what you see is not Him.

April 26, 2026

Pray for discernment because the things I’m sharing are not taught in church. However, I believe every word written in the Bible, I’m just seeing it in a different light. I am a rule follower as long as it makes sense. Believe me, it’s eye-opening!

Jesus said:

And this gospel of the kingdom shall be preached in all the world for a witness unto all nations; and then shall the end come. Matthew 24:14

If ye continue in the faith grounded and settled, and be not moved away from the hope of the gospel, which ye have heard, and which was preached to every creature which is under heaven; whereof I Paul am made a minister; Colossians 1:23

Is Paul insinuating that the gospel had already been preached to every creature that is under heaven during his time? 

It seems we may be waiting for the Judgment Seat of Christ, not the rapture or the millennial kingdom, where we will rule and reign with Jesus. There is evidence that those things may have already happened, but the enemy has been trying to cover it up. Ask yourself how the technology to build some of the most incredible buildings has been lost, and why they were built without indoor plumbing when they likely would have known how, but they clearly wouldn’t have needed it during Jesus’s reign. The technology wasn’t lost; we never had it. Many of those buildings were likely built during the Thousand-Year Reign of Jesus, and since then, the devil has been loosed, and he has been trying to destroy that evidence to keep us in a delusion. We need an awakening to recognize the timeframe we may be living in and stop waiting for something that may never happen. 

And cast him into the bottomless pit, and shut him up, and set a seal upon him, that he should deceive the nations no more, till the thousand years should be fulfilled: and after that he must be loosed a little season. Revelation 20:3

The Bible makes so much more sense when you consider that we may be living in the little season of Satan. 

And when the thousand years are expired, Satan shall be loosed out of his prison, And shall go out to deceive the nations which are in the four quarters of the earth, Gog and Magog, to gather them together to battle: the number of whom is as the sand of the sea. Revelation 20:7-8
