| “And so I will show my greatness and my holiness, and I will make myself known in the sight of many nations. Then they will know that I am the Lord.” |
| —Ezekiel 38:23 |
God has a way of making Himself known at the most appropriate times. In fact, it’s a really good idea for those of us who follow His Son, Jesus, to keep our eyes peeled for those times when God reveals Himself in our daily lives.
I’ve written many times before about a little exercise first brought to my attention by my long-time spiritual mentor, Dr. David R. Mains, and his wife, Karen, more than 35 years ago. That exercise is called the “God Hunt.” In fact, David and Karen have written at least two books on this subject—one for adults and one for children. The key elements of this daily conscious awareness of God at work in our lives includes the following:
- Any obvious answer to prayer, or…
- Any special evidence of God’s care, or…
- Any help to do God’s work in the world, or…
- Any unusual linkage or timing
If we keep our eyes, ears, minds, and hearts on alert, we will see God’s hand. After all, God has promised He will make Himself known. Notice what God said through the Prophet Ezekiel, as recorded in Ezekiel 38:23:
“And so I will show my greatness and my holiness, and I will make myself known in the sight of many nations. Then they will know that I am the Lord.”
As we start another new day, let’s be aware that God is always at work in our lives. It’s high time we acknowledged His presence by purposefully looking for the way He interacts to bless us all through each day.
