Starting from creation, that is from the world and from the human person, through reason alone one can know God with certainty as the origin and end of the universe, as the highest good and as infinite truth and beauty.

One vein of thought is through worship and reflection upon the Glory of God independent of the human Soul, this is duality. Another vein sees God as the Singular, all emanates from God therefore God is inherent to our Soul as we are one with God, a reflection of God, the Dream played out by the Dreamer and rejoining and absorption of the Soul by God is integral therefore it is impossible not to know God intuitively. Two very different paths, yet both within the humans capacity of reason. Good luck on Your journey, may Your days be free of doubt.

It's called Spiritual Intelligence!
people in religions DO NOT have this Intelligence!
Here's the Solution, even for people in religions:
Create a private, personal, direct, divine Relationship with Our Creator and save your Soul from religion.
Only with Our Creator's Love and Peace will we be Truly Free!
Without God, there is No Love; Without religion, there are No Wars!

One must buy into the "God" concept for that question to have meaning.
For an Atheist there is nothing more to know than than the physical world. There is no "God" to enter into the equation.
For most theists the only way to know their perspective "God" is to continue to postulate even more wildly contrived notions for which there is no more evidence than there was for the "God" that they postulated to begin with.
It's much simpler to just forgo the cause of the contrivance. Eliminate "God" from the equation and *presto* no more problem.

Because God is within all. Sooner or hopefully not later, You will come to KNOW GOD in yourself and translate it all as such. We all see things differently at times and all humans have the element of bull schyt that translates either poorly to some or vividly to others.

You begin with that seemingly dim light of human reason, next, you expand your sense
of logic and your rationale by including your emotions and intuitions until your awareness grows as
bright as the sun. In light of this new development you will find what you're looking for.

You start by seeking.
Isaiah 1: 18
“Come now, and let us reason together,” Says the LORD, “Though your sins are like scarlet, They shall be as white as snow; Though they are red like crimson, They shall be as wool."
Jeremiah 29: 11-13
"For I know the thoughts that I think toward you, says the Lord, thoughts of peace and not of evil, to give you a future and a hope. Then you will call upon Me and go and pray to Me, and I will listen to you. And you will seek Me and find Me, when you search for Me with all your heart."

Sunman's answer is right!
In support I will say...
Realise the origin of human reason and you will find the same thing but with the ability to understand and know yourself.

To ask / pray for His Spirit, The Holy Spirit! This is the only reasonable way. Period.

Nor beliefs. God can only be known through direct experience.
