15 Wherefore I also, after I heard of your faith in the Lord Jesus, and love unto all the saints,
16 Cease not to give thanks for you, making mention of you in my prayers;
17 That the God of our Lord Jesus Christ, the Father of glory, may give unto you the spirit of wisdom and revelation in the knowledge of him:
18 The eyes of your understanding being enlightened; that ye may know what is the hope of his calling, and what the riches of the glory of his inheritance in the saints,
19 And what is the exceeding greatness of his power to us-ward who believe, according to the working of his mighty power,
20 Which he wrought in Christ, when he raised him from the dead, and set him at his own right hand in the heavenly places,
21 Far above all principality, and power, and might, and dominion, and every name that is named, not only in this world, but also in that which is to come:
22 And hath put all things under his feet, and gave him to be the head over all things to the church,
23 Which is his body, the fulness of him that filleth all in all.

MFM Devotional For Today 2023 MESSAGE:
Knowing God intimately should be the utmost desire of every Christian. However, knowing God should not be a one-off experience but a life-long one. The more you know God, the greater the blessings and grace that He will release into your life. Moses knew Him so deeply that He had the unique experience of talking to God face to face and mouth to mouth. Abraham knew Him so deeply that He called him his friend and paid him a life-changing visit in Genesis 18. Enoch knew Him so deeply that He took Enoch and spared him the taste of death. Elijah knew Him so deeply that He sent whirlwind and a chariot of fire to transport him to heaven. Elisha knew Him so deeply that after he died, his bone still carried the unusual anointing that raised a dead soldier. Paul knew Him so deeply that he was transported to the third heaven where he saw unusual revelations.

The same Paul still yearned to know God more. Why? He knew that knowing God more had inestimable benefits. In Philippians 3:10-11, Paul said, “That I may know him, and the power of his resurrection, and the fellowship of his sufferings, being made conformable unto his death; If by any means I might attain unto the resurrection of the dead.”
However, there are hindrances to avoid in knowing God: (1) Unbelief (Romans 3:12-13). 2. Fear (John 4:18). 3. Pride (1 Peter 5:5). 4. Rebellion against authority (Romans 13:2). 5. Impurity (Ephesians 5:3-5). 6. Idolatry (Exodus 20:4-5). You must avoid these hindrances so as to position yourself to enjoy the benefits of knowing God.
What are these benefits? (1). You will be built up (Ephesians 6:10; Colossians 2:6-7 and 2 Peter 3:18). (2) You will deal drastically with sin (2 Corinthians 7:1; 2 Chronicles 29:16-17). (3). You will be greatly enriched (Colossians 2:9-10; Obadiah 17; John 14:27; Acts 1:8; 2 Corinthians 12:9). (4). You will receive answers to prayers (1 John 3:22; 1 John 5:14- 15). (5). You will delight in the Lord Himself -Psalm 37:4. (6) You will have fruitful testimony (Mark 14:8- 9; 1 Corinthians 15:58; Galatians 6:9). (7) You will have God’s smile upon your life (Numbers 6:24-26; Psalm 90:17; Proverbs 4:18 and 10:22).
