Joy of Knowing God

Elevate Your Day with Andi and Brian Hale

You get to know someone by hanging out with them—sharing meals, swapping stories, just being together. The same goes for God. David, the guy who wrote the Psalms, didn’t just know facts about God; he knew God personally. How? He spent time with Him—praying, worshiping, reading God’s Word. Through that, David learned God’s heart: His love, His power, His care.

We’ve got the same chance today. The Bible shows us who God is—His kindness, His justice, His plans for us. Prayer lets us talk to Him. Worship draws us close. The more we do this, the more we know Him—not just as a distant God, but as our Shepherd, our Friend. And that knowing? It fills us with joy.

Let’s Pray:

“Father, help me carve out time for You. I want the joy of knowing You more. Amen.”

Questions to Reflect On:

1. How many Bible verses do you know by heart? (No pressure—just curious!)
2. When could you fit in some God-time—morning coffee, lunch break, before bed?
3. What’s one small change to make that happen?

Take Action:

Switch up your routine—sit with someone new at church, lunch, or a group. Share a little about your day and listen to theirs.
