Confidence in Him

 "And this is the confidence that we have in Him, that if we ask anything according to His will He heareth us; and if we know that He hear us, whatsoever we ask, we know that we have the petitions that we desired of Him." Praise God! That is a big bank note for us today of priceless value. This check is unlimited. I can put them in to the extent of heaven's fulness, if only I have the faith to do it. How rich this makes me feel! I may ask whatever I will, but, oh, how sweet to realize that as we abide in Him, we desire only His will, and that we are not in the least danger of asking anything that He would not like to give us.

That You May Know

"These things have I written unto you that believe on the name of the Son of God; that ye may know that ye have eternal life, and that ye may believe on the name of the Son of God." That ye may know, not think so, with some degree of certainty, not guess so, or hope so, but that ye may know that ye have eternal life. How many here know this beyond the possibility of a doubt? You may all know today by believing God's record of His Son. And when we are assured of our salvation, we get confidence and power in prayer.

Be Not Afraid

Carrie Judd Montgomery


Dr. Simpson was greatly used of God to thrust me out more fully into public service, that is, especially the platform work, although God had already made real use of my pen,” wrote Carrie Judd Montgomery (1858–1946) when remembering how A. B. Simpson had encouraged her ministry, especially in the early days. Their collaboration provides an inspirational picture of how a Christ-centered friendship can influence generations. ~~Written By: Jennifer A. Miskov, from her newly-published biography of Montgomery


Now you are thinking of some great trouble in your life, and you are saying, 'Oh, Lord, I have no might.' Yes God knows that. 'Neither know we what to do.' Yes, God knows your helplessness, but will you not ... get your eyes off from circumstances, and get them upon God? Can you say, 'Our eyes are upon Thee?' Not upon circumstances, or this great company, but upon Thee. Then comes the answer from the Lord, 'Be not afraid: the battle is not yours, but God's.'

Sacrifice of Praise

Now, when is it time to praise? Oh, you say, when everything is going right, and getting into shape, and the troubles of life are vanishing away, then is the time to praise. Ah, praise comes easy then, but the time to glorify God the most by praise is when it is the sacrifice of praise. Not the praise which comes from seeing all things look right, but the praise which comes from simple faith in Jesus, even before the dark clouds have rolled away. Praise at such times is called "the sacrifice of thanksgiving," because it is a real sacrifice.

So Much Spoil

The twenty-fifth verse tell us that "They were three days in gathering of the spoil, it was so much." Beloved, God never lets a battle or a trial come into our lives but there are spoils with it. Never a real time of trial of faith but there are great riches at the end. Instead of being impoverished by them, we get richer by every trial in which our faith shines out clearly and sings praises.

When God Gives Us . . .

Carrie Judd Montgomery was a legendary pioneer evangelist and healer in The Christian and Missionary Alliance and The Assemblies of God when women seldom did such things. Her sermons were published by Alliance founder A.B. Simpson.

When God gives us in these days such a command as that, to stand still and see His salvation, we do not always bow our heads in worship. Some of us are apt to talk back to Him. We say, "Surely, Lord, this thing and that thing can't take care of itself; I must worry it through somehow. We feel as though we are very necessary and nothing is going to be done if we keep still. Of course, things can't take care of themselves, but if you will only cast the care on Him, He will take care of them and of you, too.
