...when you think that all things are dried up, when you think there is no hope for you, and you have passed everything, then that is the time that God makes the man, when tried by fire that God purges you, takes the dross away and brings forth the pure gold. Only melted gold is minted. Only moistened clay receives the mold. Only soft wax receives the seal. Only broken, contrite hearts receive the mark as the potter turns us on his wheel, shaped and burnt to take and keep the heavenly mold, the stamp of God's pure gold.

Every Day Forward 6/27 Friday Faith
It seems that I've quoted this before. Perhaps he used it in an earlier sermon. It is definitely a favorite.
Don't forget that every day must be a day of advancement. If you have not made any advancement since yesterday, in a measure you are a backslider. There is only one way for you between Calvary and the glory, and it is forward. It is every day forward. It is no day back. it is advancement with God. It is cooperation with Him in the Spirit.

You Cannot Have... 6/26 Thursday Thoughts
You cannot have the Holy Ghost without having revelations. You cannot have the Holy Ghost without being turned into another nature. It was the only credentials by which Joshua and Caleb could enter the land because they were of another spirit.
And we must live in an unction, in a power, in a transformation, and a divine attainment where we cease to be, where God becomes enthroned so richly.

Begotten Again 6/25 Wednesday Wisdom
It took nine months to bring us forth into the world after we were conceived, but it only takes one moment to beget us as sons. The first formation was a long period of nine months. The second formation is a moment, is an act, is a faith, for "He that believeth hath." And as you receive Him, you are begotten, not made.
Oh, the fact that I am begotten again, wonderful! Begotten of the same seed that begot Him. Remember, as He was conceived in the womb by the Holy Ghost, so we were conceived the moment we believed.

Wonderful Treasures 6/24 Tuesday Truth
You know, beloved, that there are many wonderful treasures in the storehouse of God that we have not yet gotten. But praise God, we have the promise in Corinthians: "...Eye hath not seen, nor ear heard, neither have entered into the heart of man, the things which God hath prepared for them that love him." (1 Corinthians 2:9)

The Hardest Way 6/23 Monday Meditation
The hardest way is the best way; you never hear anything about the person who is always having an easy time. The preachers always tell of how Moses crossed the Red Sea when he was at wit's end. I cannot find the record of anyone in the Scriptures whom God used who was not first tired. So if you never have any trials it is because you are not worth them.
