======================================================================== GOD IS GRACIOUS, GOD IS FAITHFUL, GOD IS MIGHTY. by Andrew Murray ======================================================================== Summary: Through the power of the Holy Spirit, believers can overcome the spirit of the world and experience deliverance. Topics: "Deliverance", "Faithfulness of God" Scripture References: Isaiah 40:29, John 16:33, Romans 12:2, 2 Corinthians 5:17, Galatians 5:1, Ephesians 3:20, Philippians 4:13, James 4:7, 1 Peter 5:10, 1 John 5:4 ------------------------------------------------------------------------ DESCRIPTION ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Andrew Murray emphasizes the possibility of deliverance from a worldly spirit through faith in Christ, who has overcome the world. He encourages believers to seek freedom from worldly influences by surrendering to the Holy Spirit, who empowers them to live a new life. Murray reassures that God is gracious, faithful, and mighty, and that as individuals experience this deliverance, they will gain the courage to intercede for others. The call is to trust in God's ability to transform and liberate His children from worldly bondage. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ CONTENT ------------------------------------------------------------------------ One word more. Let us believe that deliverance from a worldly spirit is possible. Christ promised it: 'Be of good cheer, I have overcome the world.' John testified of it: 'Whatsoever is born of God overcometh the world.' The new life, the life of the Holy Spirit, can overcome the spirit of the world. Let but God's children set their hearts upon, and cry to God for, deliverance from the bondage of this subjection to the world that crucified their Lord. He will give it. They may not know all that is implied in the word world, there may be differences in defining it -- let them but give themselves up, in the willingness to let go, and be entirely made free from what God counts 'of the world', to the teaching and filling of that Spirit of God who can dispossess the spirit of the world. God is gracious, God is faithful, God is mighty. And as the answer to prayer comes to ourselves, we shall have true courage to pray for our brethren.
