Necessary Knowledge.


Necessary Knowledge.

"Thus shall they know that I the Lord their God am with them, 
and that they, even the house of Israel, are my people, 
saith the Lord God." 
(Ezekiel 34:30)

To be the Lord's own people is a choice blessing,
 but to know that we are such is a comfortable blessing. 
It is one thing to hope that God is with us and another thing to know that He is so.

Faith saves us, but assurance satisfies us.
 We take God to be our God when we believe in Him; 
but we get the joy of Him when we know that He is ours and that we are His. 

No believer should be content with hoping and trusting; 
he should ask the Lord to lead him on to full assurance, 
so that matters of hope may become matters of certainty.

It is when we enjoy covenant blessings and see our Lord Jesus raised up for us as a plant of renown that we come to a clear knowledge of the favor of God toward us. 
Not by law, but by grace do we learn that we are the Lord's people.
 Let us always turn our eyes in the direction of free grace. 
Assurance of faith can never come by the works of the law.

 It is an evangelical virtue and can only reach us in a gospel way. 
Let us not look within. 
Let us look to the Lord alone. 
As we see Jesus we shall see our salvation.

Lord, send us such a flood-tide of Thy love that we shall be washed beyond the mire of doubt and fear.

 He is the #1 in my life and the most important, the purpose of my life is for HIM to increase in every single way that I can share the pure Gospel and I'm certain that HIS Word never comes back void. 
Isaiah 55:11 King James Version (KJV)
So shall my word be that goeth forth out of my mouth:
 it shall not return unto me void, 
but it shall accomplish that which I please, 
and it shall prosper in the thing whereto I sent it.

Because of Us


Because of Us.

". . . but for the elect's sake those days shall be shortened." 
(Matthew 24:22)

For the sake of His elect the Lord withholds many judgments and shortens others.
 In great tribulations the fire would devour all were it not that Out of regard to His elect the Lord damps the flame. 
Thus, while He saves His elect for the sake of Jesus, 
He also preserves the race for the sake of His chosen.

What an honor is thus put upon saints! How diligently they ought to use their influence with their Lord! 
He will hear their prayers for sinners and bless their efforts for their salvation.
 He blesses believers that they may be a blessing to those who are in unbelief.
 Many a sinner lives because of the prayers of a mother, or wife,
 or daughter to whom the Lord has respect.

Have we used aright the singular power with which the Lord entrusts us? 
Do we pray for our country, for other lands, and for the age?
 Do we, in times of war, famine, pestilence, 
stand out as intercessors, pleading that the days may be shortened?
 Do we lament before God the outbursts of infidelity, 
error, and licentiousness? 
Do we beseech our Lord Jesus to shorten the reign of sin by hastening His own glorious appearing? 
Let us get to our knees and never rest till Christ appeareth.

One with Christ Jesus.


One with Christ Jesus.
"Because I live, ye shall live also." 
(John 14:19)

Jesus has made the life of believers in Him as certain as His own.
As sure as the Head lives the members live also.
If Jesus has not risen from the dead, then are we dead in our sins;
but since He has risen, all believers are risen in Him.

His death has put away our transgressions and loosed the bonds which held us under the death sentence.
 His resurrection proves our justification: we are absolved,
and mercy saith, "The Lord hath put away thy sin, thou shalt not die."

Jesus has made the life of His people as eternal as His own.
 How can they die as long as He lives, seeing they are one with Him?
Because He dieth no more, and death hath no more dominion over Him,
 so they shall no more return to the graves of their old sins but shall live unto the Lord in newness of life.

O believer, when, under great temptation, thou fearest that thou shalt one day fall by the hand of the enemy, let this reassure thee.
Thou shalt never lose thy spiritual life, for it is hid with Christ in God.
Thou dost not doubt the immortality of thy Lord;
 therefore, do not think that He will let thee die,
since thou art one with Him.
The argument for thy life is His life, and of that thou canst have no fear; wherefore rest in thy living Lord.

Always First in Fellowship.


Always First in Fellowship.

"He goeth before you into Gailee; there shall ye see him,
 as he said unto you." 
(Mark 16:7)

Where He appointed to meet His disciples, there He would be in due time. 
Jesus keeps His trust.
 If He promises to meet us at the mercy seat, or in public worship, 
or in the ordinances, we may depend upon it that He will be there. 

We may wickedly stay away from the appointed meeting place, 
but He never does. 
He says, "Where two or three are met together in my name, 
there am I"; He says not, "There will I be,"
 but, "I am there already."

Jesus is always first in fellowship: "He goeth before you." 
His heart is with His people, His delight is in them, 
He is never slow to meet them. 
In all fellowship He goeth before us.

But He reveals Himself to those who come after Him: 
"There shall ye see him." 
Joyful sight! We care not to see the greatest of mere men, 
but to see Him is to be filled with joy and peace. 
And we shall see Him, for He promises Himself to them. 
Rest assured that it will be so,
for He does everything according to His word of promise:
"As he said unto you. 
Catch at those last words, and be assured that to the end He will do for you
"as he said unto you."
