Come ye yourselves apart
      0ne of the greatest hindrances to spirituality is the lack of waiting upon God. We cannot go through 24 hours with just the breaths of air we inhale as we sip our morning coffee. We must, rather, live in the atmosphere and breathe it all day long. Christi ... read more

Commit thy way unto the Lord

Count it all joy
      We do not always feel joyful, but we are to count it all joy. The word "reckon" is one of the key words of Scripture. It is the same word used about our death to self (Romans 6: 11). We do not feel dead. We are painfully conscious of something that woul ... read more

Count it all joy when ye fall into divers temptations
      The battle does us good. The conflict educates us, strengthens us, establishes us. It is necessary that we be grounded and settled and finally approved and rewarded. One of the best results of temptation is that it shows us what is in our hearts. Until te ... read more

EMBLEMS FROM JACOB'S PILGRIMAGE

EMBLEMS FROM THE STORY OF JOSEPH
       SECTION IV -- Joseph's Exaltation. The startling suddenness and transcendent greatness of the change which passed over Joseph's life in a few hours, seems almost too romantic to be true, but such transitions are not so sudden as they seem. Joseph ... read more

EMBLEMS FROM THE STORY OF THE FALL

EMBLEMS FROM THE STORY OF THE FLOOD

Epbraim, he hath mixed himself

Even Christ pleased not himself
      Let this be a day of self-forgetting ministry for Christ and others. Let us not once think of being ministered unto, but rather say with Him: I am among you as he that serveth (Luke 22:27). Let us not drag our burdens through the day but drop all our load ... read more
