  • THIS EXPERIENCE MUST COME

    My Utmost For His Highest And he saw him no more. 2 Kings 2:12. It is not wrong to depend upon Elijah as long as God gives him to you, but remember the time will come when he will have to go; when he stands no more to you as your guide and leader, because…

  • I HAVE HID THY WORD IN MY HEART

    Words and Music by Ernest O. Sellers, 1869–1952 The Spirit gives life; the flesh counts for nothing. The words I have spoken to you are spirit and they are life. (John 6:63) O cleansing Word, O precious Word, Your promises are true;They keep and purify my heart; Your truths are ever new.— Unknown God has…

  • MORNING & EVENING

    Numbers of Christians can view the past with pleasure, but regard the present with dissatisfaction; they look back upon the days which they have passed in communing with the Lord as being the sweetest and the best they have ever known, but as to the present, it is clad in a sable garb of gloom…

  • THE SACRAMENT OF THE SAINT

    Let them that suffer according to the will of God, commit the keeping of their souls to Him in well-doing. 1 Peter 4:19. To choose to suffer means that there is something wrong; to choose God’s will even if it means suffering is a very different thing. No healthy saint ever chooses suffering; he chooses…

  • NEARER, STILL NEARER

    Words and Music by Leila N. Morris, 1862–1929 The Lord is near to all who call on Him, to all who call on Him in truth. (Psalm 145:18) It has often been observed that there were at least four groups of people who had a relationship with Christ while He was here on earth. There…

  • MORNING & EVENING

    Paul’s marvellously rich expression indicates, that Christ is the source of our life. “You hath he quickened who were dead in trespasses and sins.” That same voice which brought Lazarus out of the tomb raised us to newness of life. He is now the substance of our spiritual life. It is by his life that…

  • PRAYER IN THE FATHER’S HEARING

    My Utmost For His Highest Father, I thank Thee that thou hast heard Me. John 11:41. When the Son of God prays, He has only one consciousness, and that consciousness is of His Father. God always hears the prayers of His Son, and if the Son of God is formed in me the Father will…

  • TAKE THE WORLD, BUT GIVE ME JESUS

    Fanny J. Crosby, 1820–1915 What good is it for a man to gain the whole world, yet forfeit his soul? Or what can a man give in exchange for his soul? (Mark 8:36, 37) In every believer there is a constant struggle between the old nature, which is attracted to the world, and the new…

  • MORNING & EVENING

    Yonder in the better world, the inhabitants are independent of all creature comforts. They have no need of raiment; their white robes never wear out, neither shall they ever be defiled. They need no medicine to heal diseases, “for the inhabitant shall not say, I am sick.” They need no sleep to recruit their frames—they…

  • PRAYER IN THE FATHER’S HONOR

    My Utmost For His Highest That holy thing which shall be born of thee shall be called the Son of God. Luke 1:35. If the Son of God is born into my mortal flesh, is His holy innocence and simplicity and oneness with the Father getting a chance to manifest itself in me? What was…
