The Link that Binds Us to God – AB Simpson

The link that binds us to God is faith. The larger the God we know, the larger will be our faith. The secret of power in our lives is to know God and expect great things from Him. “With God all things are possible,” and “All things are possible to him that believeth.” The difference between faith and works is just this: In the case of faith, God does it; in the case of works, we try to do it ourselves; and the difference is measured simply by the distance between the infinite and the finite, the Almighty God and a helpless worm.

You need the blood of Jesus as much now as at first. You never can stand before God in yourself. You must go again and again to be washed. Even on your dying bed, you must hide under Jehovah, our righteousness. You must also lean on Jesus. He alone can overcome the sin in you. Draw nearer and nearer to Him every day.

It will not profit us to read about Christ, if we are not joined to Him by living faith. Once more then let us test our religion be this question; “What think we of Christ?”

So many of us limit our praying because we are not reckless in our confidence in God.
