Know Me

 

Turn your thoughts and deeds
toward Me

for I can
be known

and you’ll find that I
am sure

when nothing else
will hold.

***********

I can know You for You are with me.

“They do not direct their deeds
Toward turning to their God,
For the spirit of harlotry is in their midst,
And they do not know the Lord.”

“Among the tribes of Israel I make known what is sure.”

“When Ephraim sees his sickness
And Judah sees his wound,
Then Ephraim went to Assyria
And sent to King Jareb;
Yet he cannot cure you,
Nor heal you of your wound.”

Hosea 5:4,9,13. NKJV

With You

 

I am with you
to deliver you

don’t be afraid
of what you face

for I have known you
before you were born

and My word in you
I’ve placed.

You establish my deliverance.

“‘Before I formed you in the womb I knew you; and whatever I command you, you shall speak. Do not be afraid of their faces, for I am with you to deliver you,’ says the LORD. Then the LORD put forth His hand and touched my mouth, and the LORD said to me: ‘Behold I have put My words in your mouth.’ ” Jeremiah 1:5,7,8,9 NKJV

His Hand

 

I know all
about you
and am with you
wherever you go

having covered you in
your mother’s womb
My hand will lead
you home.

A laid down life has God’s hand upon it.

“LORD, You have searched me and known me. You have hedged me behind and before, and laid Your hand upon me. For You have formed my inward parts; You have covered me in my mother’s womb. Lead me in the way everlasting.” Psalm 139:1,5,13,24 NKJV

Known

 

 

home
away from home
well known

As we travel back and forth between houses, I call each “home”.

“In Judah God is known; His name is great in Israel. In Salem also is His tabernacle, and His dwelling place in Zion.” Psalm 76:1-2. NKJV

I am here
to know you
and to be
known

for you’ve become
My dwelling place
your heart is now
My home.

Recognized

“So Joseph recognized his brothers, but they did not recognize him.”  Genesis 42:8  NKJV

I am always surprised when someone from my past recognizes me.

Thank You, Lord, for always knowing who I am and how to change me.  And here’s a simple poem . . .

Lord, make me
unrecognizable
from who
I used to be

as I put away
the old
and You
transform me.

God bless you as others recognize Him in you today!
