One of God's greatest desires is to make Himself known to us and lead us into a more intimate relationship with Him.He demonstrates His desire to have a friendship with us throughout the Bible.He wants us to know Him."The Holy Spirit will bring me glory by revealing to you whatever He receives from me. John 16-14".The Holy Spirit's primary goal is to bring glory to God the Father and Son by revealing the Father's thoughts.
Often we seek to know God's direction more than we seek to know God.We bypass the relationship because we would rather have answers about us.God wants to speak to you because He wants you to know Him;knowing His direction is just a by-product.God seeks to reveal the truth about Himself because this knowledge will lay the firm path you can walk to fulfilling God's purpose for your life.
The more you know and believe to be true about who God is and what He can do,the more willing you become to obey what He commands.
When God instructs us to do something based on our knowledge of Him,He moves our relationship from mental to experiential.This is why he so passionately desires to reveal himself through his Word.God just doesn't want us to hear about Him but to see and experience Him in our lives.We move from knowledge about God to experience with God when He reveals a characteristic.We then experience the characteristic as we step out in obedience to Him. "I have heard of you by the hearing of the ear,But now my eye sees you.Job 42:5".
