Does God Want Us To Know Him?

Does God want people to know Him? I believe so!
All life and matter, a universe without boundaries, all reveals a Creator master mind behind it, that causes people to acknowledge that it couldn’t happen on its own, accidently or by evolution. Creation points to God.
The Scriptures (Torah and Bible) record how God revealed Himself personally to certain men in some way and with His own voice, starting with Adam and Eve in the beginning.  
If God didn’t want us to know Him personally, then why did men write down their experiences of God and what He required of them, and has protected the Scriptures throughout all time?
If God didn’t want us to know Him personally, then why did God send His Son to the earth, through the miracle of ‘virgin’ birth, to live among men and not only claim but to be the sacrifice for all the sinfulness of mankind? Why did Jesus appear to His disciples after His death and burial, confirming to His disciples His promise that they would join Him by the same resurrection from death to life with God forever?  
If God didn’t want us to know Him, then why has the Bible been the only book to stand time, even after many evil men literally tried to rid the earth of the Holy Bible?
There have been things written down about God in other books, but not in the way God’s Spirit wrote through men to form HIS WORD to us. Only by the HOLY Spirit’s “inspiration” was the HOLY Bible formed to be passed down generation to generation so that people can BEGIN to know God.
‘Head’ knowledge alone is not enough if you truly want to know God ‘personally.’ Jesus Christ, God’s Son is called “the mystery of God” in whom are hidden all the treasures of God’s wisdom and knowledge, having the full riches and complete understanding of God. (Colossians 2:2-4) God has made Himself known to us fully through His Son coming to the earth to live among men and then taking upon Himself all the sin of the world as the “once and for all sacrifice” so that we could live with our heavenly Father forever.
The Word of God in its entirety (Old and New Testaments) is for our beginning of knowing God, which can protect our mind from being deceived by all the teachings and arguments of people who reject the Word of God. But when we go the next step ‘by faith with humility’ as a sinner before the Cross of Jesus asking His forgiveness, we receive the grace we ask for.
Ask and receive!
When we take the next step with a committed heart-felt seeking to know God fully and what HE REQUIRES of us, God gifts us with His indwelling Holy Spirit.
Seek and find!
The Holy Spirit is the one who imparts God’s wisdom when we need it. What we read in the Bible, the Holy Spirit keeps it hidden in us and reminds us of what Jesus said, our hope of glory. The Holy Spirit guides us to the truth and leads us on the right path to walk with our Lord day by day. (The Lord and Spirit are one with the Father.)  The Holy Spirit prepares us for the things to come that are recorded in the Bible by God’s prophets and Son. The Holy Spirit brings into us to live and mature: God’s love, joy, peace, strength, wisdom, patience, long-suffering, perseverance, kindness, forgiveness for others, favor with God and men.  
Knock and the door shall be opened!  
This is how I believe we come to KNOW and LIVE with GOD.
