Full of Faith 8/30 Thursday Thougths

Stephen was a man full of faith and of the Holy Ghost. God declares it. God so manifested Himself in Stephen's body that he became an epistle of truth, known and read of all. Full of faith! Such men never talk doubt. You never hear them say, "I wish it could be so; or if it is God's will." No if's. They know. You never hear them say, "Well, it does not always act." They say, "It is sure to be." The laugh at impossibilities and cry, "It shall be done!" A man full of faith hopes against hope. He shouts while the walls are up and they come down while he shouts! God has this faith for us in Christ. We must be careful that no unbelief is found in us, no wavering.

Never the Same Again 8/29 Wednesday Wisdom

God wants us to be like Stephen, full of faith and full of the Holy Ghost. You can never be the same again after you have received this wonderful baptism in the Holy Spirit. It is important that day by day we should be full of wisdom and faith, and full of the Holy Ghost, acting by the power of the Holy Ghost. God has set us here in the last days, these of apostasy, and would have us be burning and shining lights in the midst of an untoward generation. God is longing for us to come into such a fruitful position as the sons of God, with the marks of heaven upon us, His divinity bursting through our humanity, so that He can express Himself through our lips of clay. He can take clay lips, weak humanity, and make of such an oracle [spokesperson] of Himself. He can take frail human nature and by His divine power make our bodies meet to be His holy temple, washing our hearts whiter than snow.

He'll Never Forget Me 8/28 Tuesday Truth

If we dare come believing, God will heal, God will restore, will lift the burden and wake us up to real overcoming faith. Look up! Take courage! Jesus has shaken the foundations of death and darkness. He fighteth for you and there is none like Him. He is the great I AM. His name is above every name. As we believe we are lifted into a place of rest, a place of conformity to Him. He says to us as He did to Abraham, "...I will bless thee... and thou shalt be a blessing" (Genesis 12:2). He says to us as He did to His people of old, "With lovingkindness have I drawn thee." Hallelujah! "He'll never forget to keep me, He'll never forget to keep me; my Father has many dear children, but He'll never forget to keep me." Believe it. He will never forget.

Take Him at His Word 8/27 Monday Meditation

"Greater works than these shall ye do." You say, "How"? Only believe. What is it to believe? It is to have such confidence in what the Lord said that we take Him at His Word because He said it. Glory to God.

Greater Works 8/24 Friday Faith

What I want to impress upon you is that we must see these greater works that the Lord promised we should see. Listen, "Greater works than these shall ye do, because I go to My Father." "And whatsoever ye shall ask in My name, that will I do, that the Father may be glorified in the Son." What is it that you want? "Whatsoever ye shall ask in my Name, that will I do." Glory to God. Is there any purpose in it? Yes, "that the Father may be glorified in the Son."

Greater Works 8/23 Thursday Thoughts

According to the Blogspot counter, yesterday's post was my 500th post in this blog.

There is something very remarkable and forceful in this verse. It says, "Verily, verily, I say unto you ... greater works than these shall ye do." In the power of His Name there is power against the devil, and all his hosts. It is a marvelous force against all these things. Glory to God.

The Word Cannot Fail 8/22 Wednesday Wisdom

The Word of God cannot fail, because it is the living Word. Listen to the words of Jesus as He says, "Greater works than these shall ye do." I know as truly as I stand upon this platform that we shall see the rising tide of blessing and divine healing go forth with greater power, but Satan will always try to hinder the real work of God. Whenever the power of God is being manifested, Satan will be there tying to upset it. Satanic forces will be there, but God is greater.
