Faith Is an Act 5/12 Monday Meditation

Now God does not want anybody in the world, under any circumstances, to be in a place where they live on eyesight and on feelings.  Faith never feels and faith never looks.  Faith is an act, and faith without an act is not faith, but doubt and disgrace.  Every one of you has more faith than you are using.

Going On, Non-Stop 5/9 Friday Faith

The Christian life is a going on, non-stop, until you reach the top.  If you ever stop between Calvary and the glory, it is you who blocked the way.  There is no stop between Calvary and the glory except by human failure, but if you allow God to have His way, He will surely transform us, for His plan is to change us from what we are to what He intends us to be, and never to lose the ideal of His great plan for us.

God is... 5/8 Thursday Thoughts

God... is not ordinary, but extraordinary, not measured, but immeasurable, abounding in everything.  There is nothing small about God, and when we understand God we will find out that there ought not to be anything small about us.  We must have AN ENLARGEMENT OF OUR CONCEPTION OF GOD, then we will know that we have come to a place where all things are possible, for God is an omnipotent God for impossible positions.

Nervous Trouble 5/7 Wednesday Wisdom

So many people have nervous trouble.  I'll tell you how to get rid of your nervous trouble. I have something in my bag, one dose of which will cure you.  "...I am the Lord that healeth thee" (Exodus 15:26).  How this wonderful Word of God changes the situation.  "...perfect love casteth out fear..." (I John 4:18).  "There is no fear in love..."  (v. 18).  I have tested that so often, casting out the whole condition of fear and the whole situation has been changed. We have a big God, only He has to be absolutely and only trusted.  The people who really do believe God are strong, and "he that hath clean hands shall be stronger and stronger."

Have Faith 5/6 Tuesday Truth

"Have faith."  It isn't saying you have faith.  It is he that believeth in his heart.  It is a grasping of the eternal God.  Faith is God in the human vessel.  "...this is the victory that overcometh the world, even our faith"  (I John 5:4).  He that believeth overcomes the world.  "...faith cometh by hearing, and hearing by the word of God"  (Romans 10:17).  He that believeth in his heart!  Can you imagine anything easier than that?  He that believeth in his heart!  What is the process?  Death!  No one can live who believes in his heart.  He dies to everything worldly.  He that loves the world is not of God.  You can measure the whole thing up, and examine yourself to see if you have faith.  Faith is a life.  Faith enables you to lay hold of that which is and get it out of the way for God to bring in something that is not.

She Lived 5/5 Monday Meditation

Here is an act of believing in the heart.  I was called to Halifax, England, to pray for a lady missionary...  I could see there was an absence of faith, and I could see there was death.  Death is a terrible thing, and God wants to keep us alive.   I know that it is appointed unto man once to die, but I believe in a rapturous death.  I said to the woman, "How are you?"  She said, "I have faith," in a very weak tone of voice.  "Faith?  Why are you dying?"...
I said to her, "In the name of Jesus, now believe and you'll live."  She said, "I believe," and God sent life from her head to her feet.  They dressed her and she lived.

Hating Sin 5/2 Friday Faith

No man is any good for God and never make progress in God who does not hate sin.  You are never safe.  But there is a place in God where you can love righteousness and where you can hate iniquity till the Word of God is a light in your bosom, quickening every fiber of your body, thrilling your whole nature.
