BUILDING INTIMACY WITH GOD
By Sam Akhigbe
To start with, let me ask, are you born again? In John 3:3 the bible says, except you are born again you have no place in God's kingdom. Note that, kingdom life begins right here on earth. After salvation, the next thing God desires from you is your intimacy with him. This guarantees your success in life as a child of God. An unbeliever may do anything to succeed, but the bible says destruction awaits such person in the end (Prov. 16:25).
Intimacy with God is the secrete to outstanding success. Whenever you see a child of God that is doing exceptionally well in life, watch him closely, there is something he does which you do not know. You see, when you are in intimate relationship with God, he gives you access to divine secretes that will always give you competitive advantage. No matter the number of people that are doing the same thing with you, but because you understand the secrete, whenever you step out, there will always be a difference. When you talk, people will pay attention and listen because you carry something which they do not have.
Divine secretes can only be assessed in the secrete place. At certain point in your life, learn to disconnect from people and separate yourself, connect with God in the place of prayer/ meditation, then you will be amazed at the kind of ideas that will be thronging into your mind. A single idea from God has the capacity to change the entire course of your life. Those who are shaking the world today in business and in ministry, in science and other fields are people with uncommon ideas. They are custodians of secretes which you do not have access to. The only thing that gives access to this realm of operation is intimacy with God. Do you have intimate relation with God yet? Think about it!
