“Missing Heaven by 18 inches….is that possible? YES! Eighteen inches is the distance between the head and the heart. It is possible to have a head knowledge of God and know ABOUT Him but not really KNOW Him. The devil believes in God and trembles, but he is NOT going to Heaven! God wants us to have a relationship with Him and not just a knowledge about Him. There are many people that I know about and I recognize who they are but that does not mean that I know them and have relationship with them. I can read about famous people and recognize their pictures when I see them. I may even read about their lives and know lots of facts about them, but I do NOT personally know them! Do you have a RELATIONSHIP with Jesus or just head knowledge?”
As I am typing this out it reminded me of His word where it says He is not slow. 2 Peter 3:9 “The Lord is not slow in keeping His promise, as some understand slowness. Instead He is patient with you, not wanting anyone to perish, but everyone to come to repentance.”
