God Will Turn The Might

The Test Of A Man’s Religious Life And Character Is Not What He Does In The Exceptional Moments Of Life, But What He Does In The Ordinary Times, When There Is Nothing Tremendous Or Exciting On. The Worth Of A Man Is Revealed In His Attitude To Ordinary Things When He Is Not Before The Footlights.

We Have The Idea That God Is Going To Do Some Exceptional Thing- That He Is Preparing And Equipping Us For Some Extraordinary Work In The Future. But As We Grow In His Grace We Find That God Is Glorifying Himself Here And Now, At This Very Moment. If We Have God’s Assurance Behind Us, The Most Amazing Strength Becomes Ours, And We Learn To Sing, Glorifying Him Even In The Ordinary Days And Ways Of Life.

If You Have Become Bitter And Sour, It Is Because When God Gave You A Blessing You Hoarded It. Yet If You Had Poured It Out To Him, You Would Have Been The Sweetest Person On Earth. If You Are Always Keeping Blessings To Yourself And Never Learning To Pour Out Anything “to The Lord,” Other People Will Never Have Their Vision Of God Expanded Through You.

We Are Not Responsible For The Circumstances We Are In, But We Are Responsible For The Way We Allow Those Circumstances To Affect Us; We Can Either Allow Them To Get On Top Of Us Or We Can Allow Them To Transform Us Into What God Wants Us To Be.

Prayer Is Not Getting Things From God. That Is A Most Initial Stage; Prayer Is Getting Into Perfect Communion With God: I Tell Him What I Know He Knows In Order That I May Get To Know It As He Does.
