Remember wha t you are saved for - that the Son of God might be manifested in your mortal flesh . Bend the whole ener gy of your powers to realize your election as a child of God; rise to the occasion every time.

Y ou can not do anything for your salvation, but you must do som ething to manifest it, you must work out what God has worked in. Are you working it out w ith your tongue, and your brain and your nerves? If you are stil the same miserable crosspatch, set on your own way , then it is a lie to say that God has saved and sanctified you.

God is the Master Engineer , He al ows the dif ficulties to come in order to see if you can va ult over them p roperly - "By my God have I leaped over a wal ."

God wil never shield you from any of the requirements of a son or daughter of His. Peter says - "Think it not strange concerning the fiery trial which is to try you." Rise to the occasion; do the thing. It does not matter how it hu rts as long as it gives God the chance to mani fest Him self in your mortal flesh.

May God not find the whine in us any more, but may He find us ful of spiritual pluck and athleticism, ready to face anything He brings. W e have to exercise ourselves in order that the Son of God may be manifested in our mortal flesh. God never has museums. The only aim of the l ife is that the Son of God may be manifested, and al dictatio n to God vanishes. Our Lord never dictat ed to His Father , and we are not here to dictate to God; we are here to submit to His wil so that He m ay work through us what He wants. When we realize this, He wil make us broken bread and poured out wine to feed and nourish others.

Ye are Christ's; and Christ is God's.—I am my beloved's, and his desire is toward me.—I am his.—The Son of God . . . loved me, and gave himself for me.

Ye are not your own, ye are bought with a price: therefore glorify God in your body, and in your spirit, which are God's.—The Lord hath taken you, and brought you forth out of the iron furnace, even out of Egypt, to be unto him a people of inheritance, as ye are this day.

Ye are God's husbandry, ye are God's building.—Christ as a son over his own house; whose house are we, if we hold fast the confidence and the rejoicing of the hope firm unto the end.—A spiritual house, an holy priesthood.

They shall be mine, saith the Lord of hosts, in that day when I make up my jewels.—All mine are thine, and thine are mine; and I am glorified in them.—The glory of his inheritance in the saints.

This is the will of God, even your sanctification.—Acquaint now thyself with him, and be at peace: thereby good shall come unto thee.—This is life eternal, that they might know thee the only true God, and Jesus Christ, whom thou hast sent.—We know that the Son of God is come, and hath given us an understanding, that we may know him that is true, and we are in him that is true, even in his Son Jesus Christ. This is the true God, and eternal life.

We . . . do not cease to pray for you, and to desire that ye might be filled with the knowledge of his will in all wisdom and spiritual understanding.—The God of our Lord Jesus Christ, the Father of glory, . . . give unto you the spirit of wisdom and revelation in the knowledge of him: the eyes of your understanding being enlightened; that ye may know what is the hope of his calling, and what the riches of the glory of his inheritance in the saints, and what is the exceeding greatness of his power to us-ward who believe.

Open thou mine eyes, that I may behold wondrous things out of thy law.

Then opened he their understanding, that they might understand the scriptures.—The Comforter, which is the Holy Ghost, whom the Father will send in my name, . . . shall teach you all things.—Every good gift and every perfect gift is from above, and cometh down from the Father of lights.

The God of our Lord Jesus Christ, the Father of glory, . . . give unto you the spirit of wisdom and revelation in the knowledge of him: the eyes of your understanding being enlightened; that ye may know what is the hope of his calling, and what the riches of the glory of his inheritance in the saints, and what is the exceeding greatness of his power to us-ward who believe, according to the working of his mighty power.
