Individualized

In previous years my husband and I had the privilege of attending an A.C.E. Training course in Hendersonville, TN. We both had graduated high school through the A.C.E. Curriculum and were at the time entering into the administration and teaching side of the curriculum. The training was very educational on how the curriculum itself is an individualized program for students of all grade levels. Individualized Learning is what they referenced to a lot during that week, explaining how the curriculum works well for one on one teaching and how you can adapt to each students learning levels and better meet the educational needs of the individual student. What works for one student may not work for another. It can be personalized based on the individual. It is a concept that I have never forgotten about and even to this day I still think about that Individualized Learning.


Lately I have been thinking about how God has Individualized relationships. Just like the curriculum, not all individuals are the same — not all relationships are the same. For example I have friends, good friends, and best friends — different relationships with different ones. Some more serious than others and some more lighthearted than others. Since not every person is the same, you more than likely will not have the same kind of relationship with each person you know. I can’t have the same kind of relationship with my friends as I do my best friend. It’s all based on that individual as to how your relationship is with each other. It’s basically like there’s different levels of friendship that you can have with someone. Just like us, God too has different relationships with each one of us.

The most recent seances for the world population in 2023 is 8,045,311,447 people.

Out of over 8 billion people in this whole world, God can have an individualized relationship with each soul. All 8+ billion of us! All at the same time if we choose.

An individualized relationship with 8+ billion people all at the same time? Wow! There ain’t no way that I can remember the names of 8+ billion people but He can!

I personally may struggle with something that don’t bother someone else and visa versa. I have personal convictions that God gave me that others may not have and visa versa. It’s my individual relationship with Him. He may have some with higher callings than others. Some may live at different levels and standards with Him. It’s all individual relationships that we have with God that determine how our relationship is — be it close or distant.

Individualized.

I’m so glad that He loves us all with the same kind of love yet on our own personal levels. He understands each one of us and our differences. All 8+ billion of us!

But even the very hairs of your head are all numbered. Fear not therefore: ye are of more value than many sparrows.

Luke 12:7

Out of 8+ billion of us, He knows exactly how many hairs we have on our heads! You can’t tell me God ain’t a personable God!

Are not two sparrows sold for a farthing? and one of them shall not fall on the ground without your Father.

Matthew 10:29

If He notices the sparrow, how much more does He notice us? All 8+ billion of us! He sees our shortcomings, our failures, our trials, our hard aches, etc. from all 8+ billion of us all at the same time! That’s an individualized God!

Revelations talks about how the prayers of the saints are stored in Heaven.

Out of 8+ billion people and yet he hears MY prayers? He can hear all 8+ billion of us at the same time and be so attentive to each one that He knows what to store away in heaven? You can’t tell me God ain’t personable!

That’s an individualized God!

Casting all your care upon him; for he careth for you.

I Peter 5:7

All the cares of 8+billion people and He cares for each one! And I’ve got a lot of cares! More than one from each of the 8+billion? That’s a ton of cares! Yet He is so big that He can handle every last one of them. That’s huge! “My God is so big, so strong, and so mighty. There’s nothing that He cannot do for you.”

So personal!

Psalms reminds us over and over that God hears our cries and saves us from distresses!

All 8+billion of us! All at the same time if need be. What an individualized God!

The Bible tells us about Mary who broke her alabaster box and poured out the ointment onto Jesus. That was worth so much in her lifetime. She gave Him her best! At times I’ve felt like all I had was an old wooden box but if I’m giving Him my best then it don’t matter to Him! As long as I’m giving Him my all! It’s individualized.

For there is no respect of persons with God.

Romans 2:11

In Luke 21:1-4 it tells us about a widow woman that only gave two mites in the offering. It was not even near the amount that others gave but her offering was greater because she gave all the she had. In that moment, that was her individualized relationship with God.

God wants individual relationships with each of us! He wants us to give Him our all! All 8+ billion of us! He can handle it! We are so special to Him that He wants to know each of us personally. He wants to understand the parts of us that no one else does. He wants to be the friend that we can call on when we have no one else. He is a friend that sticketh closer than a brother according to Proverbs 18:24.

Now, here is one of the best parts. He died for ALL our sins! He bore All our sins on the cross! All the sins of 8+billion people He covered under the blood! Past sins, present sins, and even future sins; He took them all to the cross! What a heavy load He bore for us but He handled it with such Grace. All for each individual — not a one left out. What an individualized God!
