Dear Prayer Warriors and readers of GM,
TODAY AS YOU SIT TO PRAY OR THANK GOD FOR YOUR DAY. REMEMBER THE TRUE AND LIVING GOD, WHO ANSWERED YOUR PRAYERS FOR KEVINA SANTUCCI. Look at the power of
God, as She ministers in song in one of the churches in Cambridge Mass on
January 2, 2016 before her dad speaks.
GOD IS NOT LOOKING FOR HUMAN PERFECTION, BUT SPIRITUAL
CONSECRATION TO FINISH THE WORK OF THE GOSPEL IN THIS GENERATION.
And this gospel of the kingdom shall be preached in all the
world for a witness unto all nations; and then shall the end come. Matthew
24:14
It is said, "To the consecrated worker there is wonderful
consolation in the knowledge that even Christ during His life on earth sought
His Father daily for fresh supplies of needed grace; and from this communion
with God He went forth to strengthen and bless others. Behold the Son of God
bowed in prayer to His Father! Though He is the Son of God, He strengthens His
faith by prayer, and by communion with heaven gathers to Himself power to
resist evil and to minister to the needs of men. As the Elder Brother of our
race He knows the necessities of those who, compassed with infirmity and living
in a world of sin and temptation, still desire to serve Him. He knows that the
messengers whom He sees fit to send are weak, erring men; but to all who give
themselves wholly to His service He promises divine aid. His own example is an
assurance that earnest, persevering supplication to God in faith--faith that
leads to entire dependence upon God, and unreserved consecration to His
work--will avail to bring to men the Holy Spirit's aid in the battle against
sin.
Every worker who follows the example of
Christ will be prepared to receive and use the power that God has promised to
His church for the ripening of earth's harvest. Morning by morning, as the
heralds of the gospel kneel before the Lord and renew their vows of
consecration to Him, He will grant them the presence of His Spirit, with its
reviving, sanctifying power. As they go forth to the day's duties, they have
the assurance that the unseen agency of the Holy Spirit enables them to be
"laborers together with God." A word to the wise!
