If God exists and created miracles why is all evidence hidden? We know the flood didn't happen from geological evidence, so people are forced to either believe it metaphorically or admit god intentionally hid the evidence.
The other examples particularly from the new testament we have no evidence those miracles actually happened, we only have claims that they happened. So why hasn't God given us evidence that lasted the test of time?
Proverbs 25:2
2 It is the glory of God to conceal a thing: but the honour of kings is to search out a matter..../KJV
You want to find God? Well my experience has shown me that He has a sense of Humor! So he makes it hard for us so we can't see Him (normally). We have to have faith in what is unseen to us. That can be a tough cookie at times. But it gets easier.
You must climb the Mountain of God. And it takes effort from us, to diligently seek Him out. Why should He take that person for His Bride?!
Well, because she is the one that He does like, loves actually. So much so that He actually became a man and died for her that she might live...! Whoa. And this one is the one that keeps on bugging Him, to do this for me do that for me show me...and He says, ahh but you must prove your love for me! (You have to build a resume of trust between you and the Lord). So you accomplish this by immersing yourself in His Word. Read it so much that it overflows into your heart and dont be the one that never calls, oh no, this Bride is the one that wont shut up! And bugs Him in prayer all the time.
I never knew you? Ha! And you make an effort to clean up your aact and stop sinning. You know the difference between right and wrong. Everyone has a conscience! Don't disobey your conscience! The Lord know we love Him, if we obey him. So that means, Not only read the Bible but put it into action in your life. There is so many good life principles in the Word, that, That's what you do.
It really only takes 21 days of inputting something different to your mind to reprogram it. You jeep reading the Word and as it overflows your heart it soaks in and changes what heart you have. I found reacting in new ways to situations that I never reacted that way to that before! It was a little spooky but I felt good! And scripture also says, Pray without ceasing...That's big. But it get easier! I started inviting Jesus to go to work with me instead of saying a prayer in the morning and saying Amen and walking out! I talked to him in the truck all day long while driving from one customers to the next. then I would (leave Him in the truck?) and go in and do the job. It didn't take long, I had enough trouble on one job that I went to pray for help, and remembered that I left Him in the truck so to speak, lol! What an idiot I was. I invited Him to the jobsite and He fixed that thing right away and everything fell into place. Praise the Lord! I never made that mistake again, lol. You know I wound up laying hands on furnaces & A/C systems sometimes after that. He even fixed one without parts or anything that I couldnt figure out where the problem was! Weird problem! He fixed it. I was gathering up my tools when I had gave up on it and was going to leave without fixing it, sorry sir? WHat do I tell him? And I had just finished packing up my tools and stuff and turned around and there was the customer asking, did you fix it yet? As he reached for the power button and turned it on...The furnace lit up so quick and so smoothly, I was astonished and still catching up to the fact that, it Works now! It didn't just minutes ago. I didnt do anything to it except test for where is the problem? I was there for about 4 hours I think, and it didnt work.
No Brother, I dont leave Him in the truck anymore, or play the radio, lol. (He told me to shut it off!)
But it takes some diligence to show the Lord that your serious about climbing the Mountain of God. and then one day all of a sudden, He will come to you or He will speak to you inside of you, and there will be no denying it because the presence is so strong! So if you invite Him to go with you, remember that He is the one that sticks closer than a Brother, so don't ignore Him, talk to Him. He loves small talk, it's conversation with the one He loves! You, me, every one. It's like He turned up the volume and it's easy to hear Him now.
But be warned, climbing the Mountain of God...gets real steep, real fast. But just, trust Him...and obey. So go to Him with everything. You got your best friend with you! It's real my Friend. He is real. (He even spoke to one time, Audibly!
