The Pursuit of God - The Original Classic Edition. Tozer A

This book is probably the most spirit filled and guided work Ive read in a long time. You can not help but hear the voice of God calling you to a deeper relationship with Him as you read this amazing classic. From begining to end each page is an impassioned plea for the reader to abandon comfortable Christianity in order to truly know God as He desires to be known. <p> You can see right away that truly Mr. Tozer wrote this book on his knees. I found myself challenged to look at my own faith in Christ and what I should be doing with that faith in every chapter. Sometimes with weeping and confessing and always compelled to deep times of prayer and renewel in Gods presence. The chapter entitled The Blessedness of Possesing Nothing should be required reading for anyone confessing Christ as their Lord. I was totally blown away and my life with Christ and my own pursuit of God has been forever enriched. I have read this book over and over and shared much of it with friends and family. <p> If you are stuck in you walk with the Lord, let the Spirit of God use this book to shake you loose and move you onward and upward. <p> This is one of a few books Ive read that, upon reading it, actually manifested Gods presence. In line with the teaching of the book, God impressed upon me his love and his desire for a more intimate relationship. I broke into tears. Few books have had that impact. The chapter entitled The Blessedness of Possessing Nothing is a profound call to absolute simplicity and abandonment to God who owns everything you may think you possess, including yourself! <p> Surrender it all to God and see what miracles will be wrought for His glory. Let God possess you!
