Draw nigh to God, and he will draw nigh to you. Cleanse your hands, ye sinners; and purify your hearts, ye double minded. James 4:8

Pastor Kim L. Page

Well I have a title today that we’re going to discuss and look at. And the title is ‘ There Is Authority In Knowing The Truth ‘. I want to base our teaching today from the book of James chapter four. And I want to look primarily at verse eight. (James 4:8)

Heavenly Father we thank you for Jesus. We thank you for the Holy Spirit who has come to lead and guide and teach us. To bring us back eventually home with you. Father give us ears and hearts to hear for we know that faith comes by hearing the Word of God. And we can only please you when we have that simple childlike faith. But may we also apply that wisdom and knowledge and understanding that we may learn more and more the mysteries that are to be found in Jesus Christ. For this we ask in Jesus name. Amen amen.

James 4:8 Draw nigh to God, and he will draw nigh to you. Cleanse your hands, ye sinners; and purify your hearts, ye double minded.
James 4:9 Be afflicted, and mourn, and weep: let your laughter be turned to mourning, and your joy to heaviness.
James 4:10 Humble yourselves in the sight of the Lord, and he shall lift you up.      

Experiencing God

I think those verses are so applicable to the twenty first century church.. They resist such teaching like this. But you see we need to understand deeper what it is saying there to us.. It’s acknowledging the state that we find ourselves in. The state of the world, our surroundings, our country. Allot who profess themselves as believers but are not. But I want us really to look at verse eight which says ‘ Draw nigh to God, and he will draw nigh to you ‘. Because that is the key. That is the understanding of what is being said there.

Now every true born again Spirit filled believer wants to draw closer to Almighty God. That should be the spiritual appetite that is set within our hearts. There should be that desire to draw closer to God. That is healthy, that is good. But there is no point drawing closer to God unless you experience Him.. Unless He’s revealed to you.. ..
