God is always working from a relational view point. He is always wanting you to have a close relationship with Him. He will help you by using other people to work with you and minister to you. But, His main objective is to establish and maintain a PERSONAL relationship with you. He wants to be able to talk with you, work in and through you, bless and heal you, teach you all His truths, and be your dear, heavenly Father. He loves you as a person who is unique to Him. He doesn’t see you as a group of people. Because He can be everywhere at the same time, He has the power and ability to spend personal, private time with you. He is always available to you without any distractions. You will have His FULL attention even though He is doing the same with multitudes of other people at the same time. He loves everyone; but He loves you as an individual. He wants you and Him to grow closer by spending a lot of time together. He wants your relationship with Him to be like you are the only person in existence.

Your faith matters to God. Your spiritual condition is very important to Him. Even though He would like to give you incredible power, miracles, and blessings, His priority is you. Certain blessings from God may be wonderful, but they may also be harmful to you.

God gave Solomon a wonderful blessing of great wisdom; but Solomon used it to draw himself away from the one and only true God to false gods. God gave Samson a wonderful gift of physical power and strength; but he used it to draw himself into sin and ultimately destruction. God has wonderful things He WANTS to give us; but we have to be spiritually ready to receive them. Your faith has to be in God so you will be able to trust Him to know what, when, and how to bless you. YOU have to so believe in Him that you come to Him with your requests and then trust Him with the answer. But, you don’t have to just walk away, if you don’t get your needs met totally, instantly, and permanently. There may be a spiritual problem that is holding your answers back.

Pray that your faith will be in the fact that God knows everything and is always doing the very best for you. Ask Him to help you trust and believe in Him no matter what His answer is. Ask God to help you know if there is anything that is missing or wrong in your spiritual condition. Let Him help you continue to grow in your relationship with Him so you will do whatever it takes to get the kind of faith that will allow the power of God flow in and through you.
