Have you ever wondered who God is? As you learn and discover who God is it will begin to greatly affect your life and bring comfort and peace. Sometimes in life we can forget just how magnificent God is. So, if you go day to day focusing on the physical rather than the spiritual you won’t be able to uniquely grasp the character of God. Without truly knowing God’s character you can become overwhelmed and burdened down by life despite you being aware of biblical scripture.
Considering that, I come to encourage you and remind you that we serve a God who is fully capable and ready to solve our problems! Furthermore, that’s why it’s so important to recognize and understand the benefits of staying grounded in God and knowing His character.
Below I have listed a simple reference to help remind you of the character of God. If you are new to all this, you’re in the right place. This list will help you begin to understand the character of God and how much He cares for you.
As you read through this list pray and open your Bible to read along with the scriptures and even take notes. Always test the word and check it out for yourself! We are living in the days where DECEPTION is at an all-time high! Unfortunately, some people are quick to take God’s word out of its original context. Therefore, my purpose is to help point you to the Father because He is the one and only source.
