Jesus came to save you NOW – Hannah Whitall Smith

… settle down on this one thing, that Jesus came to save you now, in this life, from the power and dominion of sin, and to make you more than conquerors through His power.

from The Christian’s Secret of a Happy Life

“Wait on the Lord”—is a constant refrain in the Psalms, and it is a necessary word, for God often keeps us waiting. He is not in such a hurry as we are, and it is not his way to give more light on the future than we need for action in the present—or to guide us more than one step at a time. When in doubt—do nothing—but continue to wait on God. When action is needed, light will come.

Willing to pay the cost? – AW Tozer

Christ has paid the full price for our redemption, but our walk with God on a daily basis will cost us much. Are we willing, cheerfully, to pay the cost?

The Day I Died – George Müller

There was a day when I died, utterly died — died to George Müller, his opinions, preferences, tastes, and will; died to the world, its approval or censure; died to the approval or blame even of my brethren and friends — and since then I have only to show myself approved to God.
