Excellent book on God's desire to be man's enjoyment, what that means, and how in God's economy that can happen, with a major and detailed application focused on enjoying God through the Scriptures and prayer. The concept of enjoying God is revolutionary to the Christian life. Pick this book up for an impressive biblical overview of the concept of enjoying God and for detailed help in "how to" actually practice the enjoyment of God.

This book renewed my hunger for the Lord's word and personal relationship with Him.
An excellent book to read in a small group meetings and with those who are feeling complacent with their current stand with the Lord.

How to Enjoy God and How to Practice the Enjoyment of God by Witness Lee is one of those books where your concepts about anything in pleasing God gets broken. In this book, time and time again, Witness Lee stresses the fact that “being a Christian depends only on our receiving God.”
Witness Lee in this book expounds that the essential elements and practices that we need to learn is praying and reading the Bible. In order to enjoy God to the fullest, we need to learn how to pray and read the Bible in the way that allows God to be mingled with us.
This book really opened my eyes in what God’s purpose is and how we can fulfill it. I did, however, find this book quite repetitive in its content. But it is always good to repeat things that are so close to God’s heart. My view in reading the Bible and praying has changed significantly after reading this book.
A long book by Witness Lee’s standards, but definitely worthwhile. We all need to live a life that matches what is spoken in this book. Definitely recommend this book.

The statement "God is enjoyable" used to be a mystery to me until I started reading this book. The author showed us this fact and how to experience it.
I read this book the first time with a college student and a high school student. All three of us would comment how relatable the points presented in each chapter to our daily life experience. Even though we are all in different stages of life, the tips in this book helps us on how to grow in our spiritual life and also how to effectively read the Bible, pray to God, and fellowship with one another.
If you could grasp the points presented by the author and enter into the practice, I guarantee you would get helped tremendously in your spiritual growth and your relationship with the Lord Jesus.

I really appreciate this book. There are a lot of "how to" books out there, however this book is by far the MOST helpful. God not only wants to be near us but also enjoyed by us. That idea might sound strange at first, but after reading this book you will see how biblical it is and how experiencing Christ can be so real and practical. God reveals in His Word that He is so many things like life, light, food, drink, our husband, and so much more. We see that He is these things not merely for us to know but for us to experience and enjoy Him in so many ways. If you want to know the Lord in a deeper and richer way I highly recommend checking out this book!

A must read for any Christian seeking to have a deeper, closer personal walk with God. Lee reveals helpful and practical ways to not just know God, but also enjoy God in prayer and by reading the bible. The language is easy to read, but the thoughts contained within are deep and profound. I have benefited greatly from this book.
