 The Trustworthiness of God's Behavior -Tozer

The Trustworthiness of God's Behavior


Science observes how the power of God operates, discovers a regular pattern somewhere and fixes it as a "law." The uniformity of God's activities in His creation enables the scientist to predict the course of natural phenomena. The trustworthiness of God's behavior in His world is the foundation of all scientific truth. Upon it the scientist rests his faith and from there he goes on to achieve great and useful things in such fields as those of navigation, chemistry, agriculture, and the medical.
Religion, on the other hand, goes back of nature to God. It is concerned not with the footprints of God along the paths of creation, but with the One who treads those paths. Religion is interested primarily in the One who is the source of all things, the master of every phenomenon. For this One philosophy has various names, the most horrendous that I have seen being that supplied by Rudolf Otto: "The absolute, the gigantic, never-resting, active world stress." The Christian delights to remember that this "world stress" once said "I AM," and that the greatest teacher of them all directed His disciples to address Him as a person: "When ye pray, say, Our Father which art in heaven, Hallowed be thy name." The men of the Bible everywhere communed with this "gigantic absolute" in language as personal as speech affords, and with Him prophet and saint walked in a rapture of devotion, warm, intimate, and deeply satisfying.



Prayer
Father, hallowed be your name, may your kingdom come.

 Re:

Isn't God awesome? Because He is the I am God, I can know with confidence that how He dealt with poeple in scripture is the same way he will deal with us.

I AM, I WAS, AND I WILL BE that's conjugating his name. Thank God we can trust Him because He is faithful and His words are true and amen. Thanks for posting his today.
