George Muller: Delighted In God By Roger Steer
‘Delight thyself also in the Lord; and he shall give thee the desires of thine heart’ (Psalm 37:4).
‘I know what a lovely, gracious, bountiful Being God is, from the revelation which he has been pleased to make of Himself in his Holy Word; I believe this revelation; I also know from my own experience the truth of it; and therefore I was satisfied with God, I delighted myself in God; and so it came, that He gave me the desire of my heart..
George Muller, April 1874
A major new biography of a man who dared to believe the promises of God.
In the early 1830s George Muller embarked on a venture which may be unique in the history of the Christian church. Disturbed by the faithlessness of so many of his contemporaries, he longed to have something to point to, in his words, 'as a visible proof, that our God and Father is the same faithful God as ever He was; as willing as ever to prove Himself to be the Living God, in our day as formerly, to all who put their trust in Him ... It needed to be something which could be seen, even by the natural eye.’ The project which Muller decided on to demonstrate God’s reality made his name a byword for faith throughout the world. And his achievement may still be seen 'by the natural eye’. This book tells the remarkable story.
