The question for most people is not, “Is there a God?” The real question is, “Can he control the world around me and my life?”
UNDERSTAND GOD’S CHARACTER
Christ is the visible expression of the invisible God?. (Colossians 1:15 PH)
THREE THINGS WE LEARN ABOUT GOD’S CHARACTER FROM JESUS CHRIST
1. God knows about my situation.You … have seen the crisis in my soul. (Psalm 31:7 LB)You know how troubled I am; you have a record of my tears.(Psalm 56:8 TEV)O God, You know how foolish I am. (Psalm 69:5 NLT)
2. God cares about my situation.He is like a father to us, tender and sympathetic. (Psalm 103:13 LB) He knows what we are made of; he remembers that we are dust. (Psalm 103:14 TEV) “I have loved you with a love that lasts forever. I have kept on loving you with faithful love.” (Jeremiah 31:3 NIrV) For God is working in you, giving you the desire and the power to do what pleases him. Philippians 2:13 (NLT)
3. God can change me and my situation. This means that anyone who belongs to Christ has become a new person. The old life is gone; a new life has begun! (2 Corinthians 5:17 NLT) God showed his great love for us, by sending Christ to die for us while we were still sinners. (Romans 5:8 NLT)
