to speak; then we wonder why our
spiritual relationship never grows.
Serious problems develop when we
don’t grow in the knowledge of God.
Dr. David
Jeremiah
If we don’t truly know Him, we’ll
inevitably create a god convenient to
us. A lot of people worship a god of
their own fancy, a god created out of
their own heart. When people don’t
know the true God, they fabricate gods
that fit their lifestyle. A. W. Tozer wrote,
“What comes into our minds when we
think about God is the most important
thing about us… We tend by a secret
law of the soul to move toward our
mental image of God.”
In coming to know Him, we will come
to love Him. And when we love Him,
worship will be an explosion from
within our souls that we’ll be unable
to contain. That’s why knowing God is
our greatest priority
This is an adaptation from Dr. Jeremiah’s new
book, “The God You May Not Know.”
