Every day, we learn more about who God is. We can learn about Him through His Word, through prayer, and through the stories of others. When we take the time to listen to the stories of how God has worked in the lives of others, we gain a better understanding of who He is and how He works. These stories also give us hope that no matter what we are facing in our own lives, God is with us, and He is working on our behalf.
As Christians, we are called to be storytellers. We are to tell others about the good things that God has done in our lives and how He has worked in our midst. When we share these stories, it gives hope to those who are struggling and encouragement to those who are seeking to know more about God. It also allows us to see God at work in ways that we may not have been able to see before.
Inspirational Stories about God
The story is a good starting point for learning who God is, but we also must study the passage for ourselves to see what God is saying to us through His story. 2 Timothy 3:16 tells us that “All Scripture is breathed out by God and profitable for teaching, for reproof, for correction, and for training in righteousness.” This means that when we read the Bible, we can expect to learn more about who God is and how He wants us to live our lives.
Final Thoughts
If you want to get to know God better, you can learn about Him through the stories of others. But don’t stop there–make sure you’re spending time in His Word too. The Bible is living and active, and when we read it, God speaks to us. Take some time today to read a devotional about someone else’s experiences with God and then open your Bible and see what He has to say specifically to you.
There are all kinds of devotionals and picking one will be a matter of preference. I list some of my favorite devotionals here, A Place of Humility.
