The unfolding essence in a relationship….

To have a relationship with God is to be in the presence of God.

How do you have a relationship with God?

To have a relationship with God is to first be aware that God exists.
Second, is to be knowledgeable that he exists in all things.
God exists in all living things. This awareness of his existence causes one to be conscious of all that is around you. You begin to understand that he is the source of life in all living things. This consciousness makes you notice the attributes of God the father every where you look. For example, someone might say look at this ugly lady. Your response to that statement would be extremely bizarre, since you are seeing the most beautiful individual you ever laid your eyes upon.
This corroborates with the statement Minster Y. M.Dagba said in his article “How to be in the presence of God Part 4”, “ when our awareness of God increases our experiences also increase”. Our awareness of God is what allows us to see the perfect image of God in one another.
Essentially, having a relationship with God is to have a relationship with the perfect image within one another. An intimacy with Christ overflows out of the heart of the one who does not seek to contradict himself by seeing separation. An ultimate soaring relationship with God manifests through the heart who earnestly acknowledges there is such a reality as God, within man.
This awareness of such a reality, automatically removes self. The self is the false ego removed once and for all on the cross of Calvary; however it is still determined by the law of falseness to set itself up against the knowledge of God.
You see, having a relationship with God is simple! It is the simplest activity ever. I say, this because once we acknowledge the presence of God in everything, we see God and only God. God now becomes real and an authentic relationship begins to unfold.
