"Praise God. If we are so near to the coming of the Lord, the most obvious thing to do is to go through the gates, to commit oneself, to start this preparing of the way for the other people, to cast up the highway, to gather out the stones. God help us. Thine eyes shall see the kind in His beauty. Thou shalt see a land of far distances."

-Lance Lambert: "For Zion's Sake"

“Do you know my friends, that the Spirit within you is very God? Oh that our eyes were opened to see the greatness of God’s gift! Oh that we might realize the vastness of the resources secreted in our own hearts! I could shout with joy as I think, “The Spirit who dwells within me is no mere influence, but a living Person; He is very God. The infinite God is within my heart!” I am at a loss to convey to you the blessedness of this discovery, that the Holy Spirit dwelling within my heart is a Person.”

Watchman Nee, The Normal Christian Life

"Let us rejoice, even amid varying modes of expression, that the desire is growing among God's people to have nothing less than what God meant by His promise of a Baptism with the Holy Ghost and with fire. Let us be faithful to the Spirit, as He dwells within us. Let us stir up ourselves and each other to wait for, from our God, who is able to do above what we ask or think, an experience of His mighty inworking and His overflowing fullness in believers and the Church, such as we can form no conception of."
Andrew Murray
