0:40 International. Welcome to Fuel for the Soul with John Gifta. Jeremiah one was

0:54 fight regard is seeing to each and every one of us. I knew you,

0:59 given before you were formed in your mother's home. I knew you even

1:03 before you were formed in your mother's home, definitely without a doubt. One

1:07 of the verse is that you would have known without anybody even putting a gun

1:11 on your head. Is this verse if you grew up in a Christian church

1:15 and a Christian environment, that God knew you. And this is a verse

1:21 that we often quote to tell people that you know God has a plan and

1:25 a purpose for you. You're not here by mistake. You're not here by

1:27 accident. You're not here just to make it through life. God knew you

1:33 even before the foundations of the world, and he has a plan, and

1:37 he has a purpose, and he created you because of the fact that you're

1:42 valuable, you're special, you're a masterpiece, and so on and so forth.

1:46 Now, the thing is this, When I was thinking of this scripture,

1:49 this just popped into my spirit and I thought I had to share it

1:53 with you. Guys. You know the word it says that I knew you,

1:59 you know, to help you understand the depth of what God is meaning

2:02 in this that he knew us. I was just thinking about is. See,

2:07 when when you are getting to know somebody, right, the first thing

2:09 you say, well, you know, i've heard of this person. I've

2:15 heard of somebody. That's what you would say, I've heard of someone,

2:16 I've heard of you. I've heard some good things about you. So that's

2:21 from a very very distant perspective of i've heard of you, or in some

2:25 cases people may say i've seen you, like, oh, well, you

2:29 know, I've also observed and I've seen you. You know you do this,

2:34 you do that, this is your personality that I've seen you, and

2:36 so on and so forth. You know, I've seen this person. That's

2:40 the next level after saying I've heard of somebody. You're saying i've seen this

2:45 person. That means you're in a closer proximity in comparison to that. And

2:50 the next thing is you go to a place where you will say I know

2:53 about this person you know and you say, well, you know, I've

2:59 heard about this person, or I know about this person. I got some

3:02 information about this person, I have seen certain things, and I know about

3:07 this person. But the step that goes even more closer in terms of proximity

3:15 in that relationship is when you say I know that person for myself, I

3:19 know the person you know. I want you to understand your The intensity with

3:23 which God is knowing you is not just saying I've heard about you or I've

3:29 just seen you from a distance, or I just know about you. I

3:35 know your nature, I know your preferences from what you do or what you

3:42 say, I know what you are up to, and so on and so

3:45 forth. But God is going the other extra mile and saying I know you,

3:52 I know you, which means that you see for any relationship with the

3:58 matter right. You You first get to hear about them, and then you

4:02 get to see them or you know and so on and so forth, and

4:08 you get to know about them, and then eventually you come to a place

4:13 where you know them for yourself, where you say, hey, I know

4:16 this person. I have had that close walk with this person. I know

4:21 who this person is. I know their preferences, I know their thoughts,

4:27 I know where they come from, I know their heart, I know their

4:30 intentions. That's the place you go. So I was I was going through

4:33 on the internet about what it means to know somebody. It means to say

4:38 I know this person in an inside out in a deeper level. I know

4:43 their preferences, I know you know them more than somebody who just knows about

4:48 them. Are you getting what I'm saying right? And I want you to

4:53 understand. This is not something where it says God knows you because you have

4:58 had a far year relation tip with him, like you gave your life to

5:00 Christ and you followed through to have the relationship with Him through which he knows

5:04 you. Know, the Bible is saying in Jeremiah one verse, why that

5:11 God knows you even before you are formed in your mother's form. Can you

5:17 understand the depth of what this is talking about the level that we go to

5:23 to know someone. We go through gradients, we go through levels. But

5:29 God is saying, even before you were formed in your mother's room, I

5:33 knew you. I knew you. I know about your preferences, I know

5:39 where you come from, I know the deepest secrets of your heart. I

5:43 know the struggles, I know your questions, I know your doubts, and

5:48 I'm leading you every step along the way. Today I pray that this world

5:53 will go forth and encourage you. If you're feeling like, oh my gosh,

5:56 John, you know nobody understands or what is going on with my life.

6:00 I pray that this word will go forth and be a blessing in the

6:04 name of Jesus. The word of God is powerful. You know. This

6:09 is something that a lot just put in my spirit, and I think that

6:12 somebody needed to hear this word to know that God knows them. Not because

6:18 of what you have been doing in your life outside of after coming out of

6:23 your mother's womb, but He knew you even before that. He knows you

6:30 even before the foundations of the world. You've been listening to fuel for the
