Hiding God's Word

The Psalmist said that he had hid God's Word in his heart, that he might not sin against Him; and you will find that the more of God's Word you hide in your heart, the easier it is to live a holy life. He also testified that God's Word had quickened him, and, as you receive God's Word into your being, your whole physical being will be quickened and you will be made strong. As you receive with meekness the Word, you will find faith upspringing within. And you will have life through the Word.

When We Measure God ...

Everywhere men are trying to discredit the Bible and take from it all the miraculous . . .


Another preacher said, "It was an easy thing for Jesus to feed the people with five loaves. The loaves were so big in those days that it was a simple matter to cut them into a thousand pieces each." But he forgot that one little boy brought those five loaves all the way in his lunch basket. There is nothing impossible with God. All the impossibility is with us when we measure God by the limitation of our unbelief.

We have a wonderful God, a God whose ways are past finding out, and whose grace and power are limitless.




-- Smith Wigglesworth, 1922

By the Blood

"By the blood of Jesus my whole being is open to the fullness of God, and by that same precious blood I am closed to any power of the enemy.”


--Carrie Judd Montgomery, 1908

By and through prayer . . .

In October 1932 Roberts (Evan Roberts, the "father" of the great Welsh Revival of 1904) wrote, "My work is confined to prayer, and it is to such that I have devoted myself for the last twenty-five years. . . . I work as hard at prayer as if I had undertaken any other form of religious work. . . . By preaching I would reach the limited few -- by and through prayer I can reach the whole of mankind for God."


-- Wesley Duewel, Revival Fire

Revival Praying

Every time in the history of the church revival has come, it has followed extensive prayer and seeking of God's face by some of His children. When we study the history of God's work on earth, we will always find faithful praying saints, often hidden, holding on before Him in prayer, pleading for God to revive His people. . . .


God requires more than casual prayers for revival. He wants His people to hunger and thirst for His mighty working. To seek God's face is far more than occasionally mentioning revival in our prayer. It involves repeated and prolonged prayer. . . A revival seeker is eager to obey God in everything.

"When the Hour Was Come"

MAUNDAY THURSDAY MEDITATION: "And when the hour was come, He sat down and the twelve apostles with Him." "When the hour was come" -- that was the most wonderful hour. There never was an hour, never will be an hour like that hour. What hour was it ? It was an hour of the passing of creation under the blood. It was an hour of destruction of demon power. It was an hour appointed of life coming out of death. It was an hour when all that ever lived came under a glorious covering of the blood. It was an hour when all the world was coming into emancipation by the blood. It was an hour in the world's history when it emerged from dark chaos, a wonderful hour! Praise God for that hour! Was it a dark hour? It was a dark hour for Him, but a wonderful light dawned for us. It was tremendously dark for the Son of Man, but praise God He came through it.
