When a person is looking for God and cannot find Him, the problem lays not so much in the one searching, but in the ones who should properly represent God and His majesty. The body of Christ, as a whole, has little idea of how to allow Christ to move through them. God's people generally attempt to force Christ onto others. It is what I refer to as selling God, just as one would sell a cheap perfume in a dollar store. If we would really become merged with His heart and understand how He operates, we wouldn't have to sell Him at all. The Oxford Illustrated American dictionary defines the word "merge" as "lose or cause to lose character and identity in (something else)." We, the Body of Christ, are to forfeit our natural, human ways of thinking. If we could visualize being swallowed by God, it will extend an idea of the meaning of "merging as one." Once consumed by Yahweh, we will flow with Christ as one single entity-not two separate beings attempting with futility to force one to align with the other. In this condition of oneness, people would flock to Christ-followers desiring what and whom we have because they witness the physical manifestation of Jesus. Congregations across the land meet regularly. They throw their hands in the air and shout with songs of praise to Almighty God. They fall on the floor, weep, shout amen and hallelujah, speak in tongues, laugh, run around, and do many things of the like. On the other hand, there are those who bow quietly and never utter a sound in their attempt at reverence. The Bible is full of worshipers in many styles so I do not begrudge an individual in their stylistic choices of worship. Nevertheless, praise and worship to a God we do not sincerely know or understand is worthless. Praise and worship should always be an outward manifestation of the inward communion with the One whom we are praising. Too many times there are external acts of worship without ever experiencing intimacy firsthand. The result is people in search of the One true God leave their church services frustrated and aggravated. They were unable to find the One whom they seek. One of my most earnest desires is to assist believers in learning how to walk in balance and become synced with the Lord. What I often find in the church is a lot of excitement and hype, not only in the initial act of accepting Christ, but way too much in everyday services. Hype and excitement in worship certainly have their place, but too much of it without meat to follow leads one into discouragement. This is due to the fact that they leave church without knowing how to properly apply the Word of God in their personal lives. When this occurs, those searching for relationship with God cannot seem to locate Him. All they see are the people instead of Christ through the people. This book is set in place as a source of instruction so as to help people learn how to draw near unto God's heart and face, grow in true faith, and live a life of unity, balance, hope, peace, and love. When we begin a walk of intimacy by making Yeshua's heart our own, the lost will be able to identify Him through us and be drawn to Him.
