We Are Fearfully And Wonderfully Made Psalms 139:1-75 Thou hast beset me behind and before, and laid thine hand upon me. 6 Such knowledge is too wonderful for me; it is high, I cannot attain unto it. 7 Whither shall I go from thy spirit? or whither shall I flee from thy presence?
We Are Fearfully And Wonderfully Made Psalms 139:13-1413 For thou hast possessed my reins: thou hast covered me in my mother's womb. 14 I will praise thee; for I am fearfully and wonderfully made: marvellous are thy works; and that my soul knoweth right well.

We Were Designed to Fellowship With God Romans 1:16-2017 For therein is the righteousness of God revealed from faith to faith: as it is written, The just shall live by faith. 18 For the wrath of God is revealed from heaven against all ungodliness and unrighteousness of men, who hold the truth in unrighteousness;
We Were Designed to Fellowship With God Romans 1:16-2019 Because that which may be known of God is manifest in them; for God hath shewed it unto them.
We Were Designed to Fellowship With God Romans 1:16-2020 For the invisible things of him from the creation of the world are clearly seen, being understood by the things that are made, even his eternal power and Godhead; so that they are without excuse:

Communication And Fellowship With GodIs Done By Faith Romans 10:8-99That if thou shalt confess with thy mouth the Lord Jesus, and shalt believe in thine heart that God hath raised him from the dead, thou shalt be saved.

God’s Will for UsIs To Have Faith Ephesians 2:8-98 For by grace are ye saved through faith; and that not of yourselves: it is the gift of God: 9 Not of works, lest any man should boast.
It Is Not Unusual To Have Faith... It Is NecessaryAnd It Is Normal • Faith comes from believing God’s Word • This is and must always be the bottom line • Everything must be sifted through God’s Word...PERIOD
We should focus and exercise the USUAL instead of being enamored andoverly interestedin the unusual
Unusual should beJust that... UNUSUAL Not the norm `Not the routine or common, and certainly not the main focus or the bottom line

Can You Say Like Job... I Know My Redeemer Lives Job 19:25For I know that my redeemer liveth, and that he shall stand at the latter day upon the earth:
Can You Say Like Isaiah... God Is My Salvation Isaiah 12:2Behold, God is my salvation; I will trust, and not be afraid: for the LORD JEHOVAH is my strength and my song; he also is become my salvation.
Can You Say Like Paul... I Know Whom I Have Believed 2 Timothy 1:12For the which cause I also suffer these things: nevertheless I am not ashamed: for I know whom I have believed, and am persuaded that he is able to keep that which I have committed unto him against that day.
The Bottom Line... ...The Usual 2 Timothy 1:13Hold fast the form of sound words, which thou hast heard of me, in faith and love which is in Christ Jesus.
