Guidance & Wisdom
Self must be utterly denied.
Blessed is the man who gets into God’s secrets and works under God.
The regenerate man is one in whom the will has been renewed, and who can say: ‘I delight in the law of God after the inward man.’
We must either deny self or deny Christ.
A faithful servant may be wiser than the master, and yet retain the true spirit and posture of the servant.
If I am something, then God is not everything; but when I become nothing, God can become all, and the everlasting God in Christ can reveal Himself fully.
What is done in the will of God must have the mighty blessing of God.
There is nothing so heart-searching as the prayer of faith.
Fall down and learn that when you are utterly helpless, God will come to work in you not only to will, but also to do.
Obedience is the path to holiness, because it is the path to union with God’s holy will.
As long as we are something, God cannot be all.
The great test of whether the holiness we profess to seek or to attain, is truth and life, will be whether it be manifest in the increasing humility it produces.
Let there be the deep confession of our inability to bring God the worship that is pleasing to Him.
It is when we sink down in utter helplessness that the everlasting God will reveal Himself in His power.
God has a plan for His Church upon earth. But alas! we too often make our plan, and we think that we know what ought to be done.
To be holy is to be Godlike, to have a disposition, a will, a character like God.
A man cannot live one hour a godly life unless by the power of the Holy Ghost.
Where God enters and rests, there is holiness; it is the presence of God makes holy.
Humility towards men will be the only sufficient proof that our humility before God is real.
As the branch thirsts for continued sap, so the believer thirsts for more of the Spirit.
