Obtaining Victory – George Kulp

One day a smart little boy —and you know there is nothing so smart as a little boy, unless it is a little girl—said to his sister, “Can you spell water with three letters?” Of course she could not. Then he spelled it for her, i-c-e. When one gets where he can see God, he will find that every promise in the Bible is spelled v-i-c-t-o-r-y,—victory over sin, over the world, the flesh, and the devil. “Oh, Brother Kulp, I have tried everything and I am defeated.” Quit “trying everything,” and believe God. Faith is the victory.

Bible Evidence of Pentecost

How foolish so many of us have been in the clear light of God’s Word. We have been running off with blessings and anointings with God’s power, instead of tarrying until Bible evidence of Pentecost came.

Faith, Optimism, and Discouragement – George Kulp

Faith makes a man an optimist. The man who believes God cannot be discouraged. He hears the Master talking to him and, as he listens to Him, there comes the comforting words, “I am with thee even to the end.” Now, the devil can launch his brigades and his divisions and his legions, but this man sees the other side and shouts the victory.

Lord, Make Me As Holy As You – Oswald Chambers

Now may the God of peace himself sanctify you completely, and may your whole spirit and soul and body be kept blameless at the coming of our Lord Jesus Christ. He who calls you is faithful; he will surely do it. (1 Thessalonians 5:23-24 ESV)

The majority of us are too indifferent, too religiously sentimental to be caught up in the sweep of the Apostle Paul’s intercession. Have we a lesser idea than that God should do in us what He wants to do? Are we prepared to pray with Murray McCheyne, “Lord, make me as holy as Thou canst make a sinner saved by grace”?
