We should not merely serve God without pursuing knowledge of Him. Our service to God is based on our knowledge of Him. God delights in our knowing Him; therefore, He wants us to pursuing knowing Jehovah.

To know God's ways refers to knowing the principles by which He does things. God's way are the ways in which He deals with us; His ways are highter than our ways. The ways of God are what He wants to do concerning us.

Knowing God strengthens us; our strength depends on the degree of our knowledge of God. Only those wht know God will show strength and take action.
