Becoming - beginning to be something or passing into a state

Romans 10.9

When we first become born again, we are babes who will eventually mature.

Matthew 16.13

We must know Him, Jesus Christ.  The Greek word ginóskó means to come to know, recognize, or perceive.  Know God is an experiential existence. 

 We know Him not only with our heads but with our hearts.  This knowing comes with a close relationship.  Intimacy here means to get up close and personal with God.  

Peter was the first to know who Jesus was.  He was able to understand this because of the time he spent with Jesus.  When we enter the secret place, God begins to reveal Himself to us.

Do we know the ways of the Lord, or do we know the Lord of the way?  As we grow up, He becomes LORD, Adonai, and Master.  He has to be the DIRECTOR of your life, the SHEPHERD, the SOLID ROCK that cannot be overthrown.  Our lives must be built upon the solid rock, Jesus.  Knowing how HE is changes how we are.  We must learn His voice.  

We have to be so close that we know His heart and mind.  We undergo and process that changes transform us from the inside out.  He has called us to come out from among the contaminants of the world.  

Go forward as sons. We have to grow to a place where it's not our will, but God’s will.

Sonsip is not about what we do, but what we become.  To become born again is a gift from the Father.  To become a son of God is a gift to the Father.
