2Ch 16:9 For the eyes of the LORD run to and
fro throughout the whole earth, to shew himself strong in the behalf of
them whose heart is perfect toward him. Herein thou hast done foolishly:
therefore from henceforth thou shalt have wars.
God is looking for a man, or
woman, whose heart will be always set on Him, and who will trust Him for
all He desires to do.
God is eager to work more mightily now than He
ever has through any soul. The clock of the centuries points to the
eleventh hour.
The world is waiting yet to see what
God can do through a consecrated soul.
Not the world alone, but God
Himself is waiting for one, who will be more fully devoted to Him than
any who have ever lived; who will be willing to be nothing that Christ
may be all; who will grasp God's own purposes; and taking His humility
and His faith, His love and His power, will, without hindering, continue
to let God do exploits.
~C. H. P.~
There is no limit to what God can do with a man, providing he will not touch the glory.
In
an address given to ministers and workers after his ninetieth birthday,
George Mueller spoke thus of himself: "I was converted in November,
1825, but I only came into the full surrender of the heart four years
later, in July, 1829.
The love of money was gone, the love of place was
gone, the love of position was gone, the love of worldly pleasures and
engagements was gone.
God, God alone became my portion. I found my all
in Him; I wanted nothing else.
And by the grace of God this has
remained, and has made me a happy man, an exceedingly happy man, and it
led me to care only about the things of God.
I ask affectionately, my
beloved brethren, have you fully surrendered the heart to God, or is
there this thing or that thing with which you are taken up irrespective
of God?
I read a little of the Scriptures before, but preferred other
books; but since that time the revelation He has made of Himself has
become unspeakably blessed to me, and I can say from my heart, God is an
infinitely lovely Being.
Oh, be not satisfied until in your own inmost
soul you can say, God is an infinitely lovely Being!

I pray to God this day to make me an extraordinary Christian.
