“I also will choose their delusions, and will bring their fears upon them; because when I called, none did answer; when I spake, they did not hear: but they did evil before mine eyes, and chose that in which I delighted not.”
— Isaiah 66:4 (KJV)

Do you realise that the only things you know about God are what He has chosen to reveal to you? Despite being a multi-faceted God, before He reveals Himself to you He considers how much general knowledge you have and your preconceived ideas.
The word "delusions" here refers to the vexation of the mind. For example, in the Bible, angelic beings are never described as having wings. However, because God knows that many people assume angels have wings, He may allow them to appear that way so that when you encounter one, you can recognise it.
This is the danger of living in an uninformed state—you end up reducing profound experiences to the level of
your ignorance. You must never shrink God to your level of understanding but allow the revelation of the divine to come from Him and not your assumptions. May God open your eyes to His truth so that you may know Him as He truly is, beyond the limits of your own understanding.
