“There's a difference between knowing God and knowing about God. Knowing about God is all of the stuff we've been told and all of the books we've read and all of our religious experiences and what others have told us and tried to convince us of. But knowing God is when we make conscious contact.” BookStuffDifferencesReligiousKnowingConsciousContactConvinceGod KnowsKnowing GodReligious ExperienceConvince Us Author:Wayne Dyer
“Prayer is an act of faith. Just by praying to God, you are declaring our trust in someone other than yourself. Your faith is increased as you pray and watch how God answers your prayers. God says in Jeremiah 33:3, Call to Me and I will answer you, and I will tell you great and mighty things, which you do not know. God is awesome in power and there is never a time when He is not beside you. He is faithful and holy.” KnowsFaithReligiousPrayerAnswersWatchesPrayingHolyFaithfulOur PrayersKnowing GodPraying To GodDeclaringBeside YouJeremiah Author:Charles Stanley
“Many rich and powerful men would pay dearly to see the Lord or His Most Pure Mother, but God does not appear in riches, but in the humble heart...

It need neither money nor reputation to come to know God, but only humility.” KnowsMenInspirationalNeedsHeartDoeChristianMotherReligiousPowerfulPayLordRichHumilityPureHumbleRichesReputationOrthodoxKnowing GodPoorestBe HumblePowerful ManHumble Heart Author:Silouan the Athonite
“No matter how much we may study, it is not possible to come to know God unless we live according to His commandments, for God is not know by science, but by the Holy Spirit. Many philosophers and learned men came to the belief that God exists, but they did not know God. It is one thing to belief that God exists and another to know Him. If someone has come to know God by the Holy Spirit, his soul will burn with love for God day and night, and his soul cannot be bound to any earthly thing.” IfsKnowsMenInspirationalMaySoulMatterChristianSpiritNightBeliefReligiousStudyOne ThingHolyBoundsPhilosopherGod LoveHoly SpiritOrthodoxCommandmentsKnowing GodDay And NightGod ExistsEarthly Things Author:Silouan the Athonite
“The soul that has come to know God fully no longer desires anything else, nor does it attach itself to anything on the earth; and if you put before it a kingdom, it would not desire it, for the love of God gives such sweetness and joy to the soul that even the life of a king can no longer give it any sweetness.” IfsKnowsInspirationalGivingDoeSoulEarthChristianJoyDesireReligiousKingsKingdomsGod LoveOrthodoxSweetnessKnowing God Author:Silouan the Athonite
“The Lord does not show Himself to a proud soul.
