Summary of Unit 4

Day 1

• Knowing God only comes through experience as He reveals Himself to me.
• I know God more intimately as He reveals Himself to me through my experiences with Him.

Day 2 & 3

• Obedience is the outward expression of my love of God.
• If I have an obedience problem, I have a love problem.
• God is love. His will is always best.
• God is all-knowing. His directions are always right.
• God is all-powerful. He can enable me to do His will.
• All of God's commands are expressions of His nature of love.
• When God gives a commandment, He is not restricting me. He is freeing me.
• If I love Him, I will obey Him!

Day 4

• God is at work in the world.
• God takes the initiative to involve me in His work.
• God must take the initiative to open my spiritual eyes, so I can see what He is doing.
• When I see the Father at work around me, that is my invitation to adjust my life to Him and join Him in that work.
• God's revelation is my invitation to join Him.

Day 5
