The Benefit of Intimacy 3

For you not to practice intimacy is a rejection of provision. It is the real factor of all that was done by Jesus; you must take advantage of the price paid and spend time daily with the father.  After the Garden of Eden episode, Man became far from God and could no longer sit with Him to freely discuss as was normally dome in the cool of the day.
Today you now have access into the Holy of Holies and relate directly with Him without protocol, a relationship that was broken in the beginning was amended by Jesus as revealed in Ephesians 2:1-6. Until you are enveloped in the practice of intimacy, you are not set for greater levels of performance in life. You can operate better than you are doing right now; all you need is become more regular in your intimate experience with God.
Intimacy cannot be enjoyed when there is a status difference between the two people involved. Both of them have to be on same level to allow for a sweet and smooth fellowship. In other to bridge the gap existing between you and Him; He lifted you to be in the same level with Him (Psalm 89:6), so that there will not be friction in the process intimating. The relationship is no longer God relating with from, because the difference will be too unimaginable; instead it is now God intimating with another god of His kind.
Species of the same kind intimate with one another. You are no longer of the man’s specie, but of the God’s specie. In intimacy you learn new things about God; you receive fresh insight into His plans for you as an individual and for the world as a whole. It is no use going about any activity when you have not spent time with Him. Your daily activities should be a product of intimacy (Romans 9:16).
You must understand that your life without Him is nothing different from the grasses in the field or the animals around.
For you to continually enjoy unending supply; you have to be connected to the source of all things. Anything that disconnects or detaches from its source will lose its value, virtue, ability and be out of use with time. Staying in constant contact with God in intimacy adds value and relevance to your life and all your activities. Intimacy is a called for you to be with Him alone.
