Preparing God's Word for your heart
“The grass withers and the flowers fall, but the word of our God endures forever.”
Isaiah 40:8
"Give Me to drink." How many of us are set upon Jesus Christ slaking our thirst when we ought to be satisfying Him?
We should be pouring out now, spending to the last limit, not drawing on Him to satisfy us.
"Ye shall be witnesses unto Me" - that means a life of unsullied, uncompromising and unbribed devotion to the Lord Jesus, a satisfaction to Him wherever He places us.
Beware of anything that competes with loyalty to Jesus Christ.
The greatest competitor of devotion to Jesus is service for Him.
It is easier to serve than to be drunk to the dregs.
The one aim of the call of God is the satisfaction of God, not a call to do something for Him.
We are not sent to battle for God, but to be used by God in His battlings.
Are we being more devoted to service than to Jesus Christ?
Jesus: for he shall save his people from their sins.—He humbled himself, and became obedient unto death, even the death of the cross. Wherefore God also hath highly exalted him, and given him a name which is above every name: that at the name of Jesus every knee should bow, of things in heaven, and things in earth, and things under the earth.
Messias . . . which is called Christ.—The Lord hath anointed me to preach good tidings unto the meek; he hath sent me to bind up the brokenhearted, to proclaim liberty to the captives.
The last Adam was made a quickening spirit. The second man is the Lord from heaven.—My Lord and my God.—Ye call me Master and Lord: and ye say well; for so I am. If I then, your Lord and Master have washed your feet; ye also ought to wash one another's feet.
For I have given you an example, that ye should do as I have done to you.
