Enter into the promises of God. It is your inheritance. You will do more in one year if you are really filled with the Holy Ghost than you could do in fifty years apart from Him. I pray that you may be so filled with Him that it will not be possible for you to move without a revival of some kind resulting.
-- Smith Wigglesworth, 1922

God has never ... 7/29 Friday faith
God has never put anything over on a pole where you could not reach it. He has brought His plan down to man, and if we are prepared..., oh, what there is for us! I feel sometimes we have just as much as we can digest, ye there are such divine nuggets of precious truth held before our hearts, it makes you understand that there are yet heights, and depths, and lengths, and breadths of the knowledge of God laid up for us.

You Are to Have the Gifts 7/28 Thurs. thoughts
You are to have the gifts, and claim them, and the Lord will certainly change your life and you will be new men and women. Are you asking for a double portion this morning? I trust that no one shall come behind in any gift. You say, "I have asked; do you think God will be pleased to have me ask again?" Yes, do before Him; ask again, and we may this morning go forth in the Spirit of the mantle, and it shall be no longer I, but the Holy Ghost, and we shall see and know His power because we believe.

Savorless Salt 7/27 Wednesday wisdom
If we do not move on with the Lord these days, and do not walk in the light of revealed truth, we shall become as the savorless salt, as a withered branch. This one thing we must do, forgetting those things that are behind, the past failures and the past blessings, we must reach forth for those things which are before, and press toward the mark for the prize of our high calling of God in Christ Jesus (Philippians 3:13, 14). . . . God has no use for any man who is not hungering and thirsting for yet more of Himself and His righteousness.

Wonderful Miracles 7/26 Tuesday truth
We have been seeing wonderful miracles these last days and they are only a little of what we are going to see. I believe that we are right on the threshold of wonderful things, but I want to emphasize that all these things will be through the power of the Holy Ghost. You must not think that these gifts will fall upon you like ripe cherries. There is a sense in which you have to pay the price for everything you get. We must be covetous for God's best gifts, and say Amen to any preparation the Lord takes us through, in order that we may be humble, usable vessels through whom He Himself can operate by means of the Spirit's power.

Greater is He 7/25 Monday meditation
Take your position in the first epistle of John and declare, "...greater is he that is in [me], than he that is in the world" (I John 4:4). Then recognize that it is not yourself that has to deal with the power of the devil, but the Greater One that is in you. Oh, what it means to be filled with Him. You can do nothing of yourself, but He that is in you will win the victory. Your being has become the temple of the Spirit. Your mouth, your mind, your whole being becomes exercised and worked upon by the Spirit of God.

Right Place at the Right Time 7/22 Friday Faith
A preacher always loses out when he gets his mind on finances. It is well for ... preachers to avoid making much of finances except to stir up people to help our missionaries on financial lines. A preacher who gets big collections for missionaries need never fear, the Lord will take care of his finances. A preacher should not land at a place and say that God has sent him. I am always fearful when I hear a man advertising this. If he is sent of God, the saints will know it. God has His plans for His servants and we must so live in His plans that He will place us where He wants us. If you seek nothing but the will of God, He will always put you in the right place at the right time.
