This powerful sermon explores how Jesus came primarily to reveal the Heavenly Father's character and love to humanity. Wilkerson emphasizes that true Christian intimacy goes beyond knowing Jesus to understanding God as our caring, loving Father.

Main Ideas:

• Jesus' primary mission was to reveal who the Heavenly Father is through his words, actions, and miracles - everything Christ did was an expression of the Father's heart

• The disciples missed the revelation - even after three years with Jesus, they still didn't understand the Father's nature, prompting Jesus' response "Have I been so long with you and yet you have not known me?"

• Every miracle showed the Father's character - from turning water to wine (God cares about daily needs) to raising the widow's son (God is moved by our pain) to feeding the multitudes (God provides for those who seek him)

• God chose to be our Father - we didn't choose him, but he selected us out of love and mercy, not because we earned it or got "good enough"

• True intimacy requires separation - to experience this Father-child relationship, believers must "come out from among them" and separate from worldly influences and unclean things

• The Father's love brings rest - instead of striving and struggling, we can trust our lives into his hands, knowing he will provide, protect, and guide us through every trial
