It is our own mind and ego, the ME, that is our biggest enemy. It makes us believe we are this body. It makes us crave, and we take what we crave to our grave. Because we desire material happiness, we are unable to realize we are not the body, not the mind, not the ego. It is our own mind and ego that makes us a monkey, jumping from thought to thought. It disturbs and distracts us, it disrupts our connection with God. The ego makes us believe that God is separate from us, when in reality, God lives within the temple of our heart. The mind bombards us with thoughts, together the mind and ego create a barrier that stops us from connecting to God, not only knowing God but realizing God. In reality, we are all God particles that are surrounded by bone and skin, but we don't realize the power that is within.

What is the difference between 'Knowing God' and 'Knowing of God'?
knowing about god does not equal a relationship with god, whereas knowing god is to have a relationship with god. evanglist joe h. campbell The Scriptures mentions that the people of Israel knew about God while Moses knew God. This word knowing as it's used in this passage speaks that there was a personal, close, face to face intimate relationship (Dt. 34:10), not different that the one between husband and wife, as to Adam knew Eve (Gen. 4-1 KJ) Many speak about God and can quote chapter and verse, but the eyes of the Lord are looking all throughout the land searching for those who will worship in spirit and in truth in the intimacy of their privacy, not to reach the multitudes but to touch the heart of God, in turn He Will heal the land. (2 Ch 7:11) Leo, ambassador of Christ
