EPIGNOSIS
(The Exact, Precise and Intimate Knowledge of God).
TO THE BIBLE
2 Peter 1:3 RSV “His divine power has granted to us all things that pertain to life and godliness, through the knowledge of him who called us to his own glory and excellence.”
LET’S TALK
The word “knowledge” in the verse above is the Greek “epignosis,” and it means exact or precise knowledge; full knowledge with intimacy. It means full comprehension, recognition, or perception; to become fully acquainted with God. This is the knowledge the Lord seeks for His children to have of Him. We’ve been called to glory and virtue; that’s the life of glory, honour, dignity and excellence, and this life works in you through your knowledge—“epignosis” —of Him.
The Holy Spirit, through the Apostle Paul, shows us how to get this knowledge of God in His prayer for the Church: “That the God of our Lord Jesus Christ, the Father of glory, may give to you the spirit of wisdom and revelation in the knowledge of Him, the eyes of your understanding being enlightened…” (Ephesians 1:17-18). What does this mean?
He’s saying that as you get to know God through this kind of special relationship or acquaintance, He’ll grant you insight into reality. Yes, God has appointed you to a life of honour, dignity, and excellence, but as you learn about Him, as you meditate on the Word, secrets about this life and how to walk in the reality of it are unveiled to you. It reminds me of yet another powerful truth in 2 Peter 1:2: “Grace and peace be multiplied unto you through the knowledge of God, and of Jesus our Lord” (KJV). Again, the word translated knowledge here is “epignosis.” So, in addition to a life of honour, dignity, and excellence, grace and peace can be multiplied in your life as you meditate on the Word of God.

SPEAK
Through fellowship with the Word, I’m brought into an esoteric knowledge of God and the Lord Jesus. I have full discernment and understanding of divine realities because the eyes of my spirit have been flooded with light, to know the hope of my calling and the glory of God’s inheritance in the saints, in Jesus’ Name. Amen.
