    My Utmost For His Highest And he said, Who art Thou, Lord? Acts 9:5.

  • MORNING & EVENING

    The camp of Dan brought up the rear when the armies of Israel were on the march. The Danites occupied the hindmost place, but what mattered the position, since they were as truly part of the host as were the foremost tribes; they followed the same fiery cloudy pillar, they ate of the same manna,…

  • THE MIRACLE OF BELIEF

    My Utmost For His Highest My speech and my preaching was not with enticing words. 1 Cor. 2:1–5 . Paul was a scholar and an orator of the first rank; he is not speaking out of abject humility, but saying that he would veil the power of God if, when he preached the gospel, he…

  • JESUS NEVER FAILS

    Words and Music by Arthur A. Luther, 1891–1960 Heaven and earth will pass away, but my words will never pass away. (Matthew 24:35) Just when my hopes have vanished, just when my friends forsake,Just when the fight is thickest, just when with fear I shake,Then comes a still small whisper, “Fear not my child, I’m…

  • MORNING & EVENING

    Labour to maintain a sense of thine entire dependence upon the Lord’s good will and pleasure for the continuance of thy richest enjoyments. Never try to live on the old manna, nor seek to find help in Egypt. All must come from Jesus, or thou art undone for ever. Old anointings will not suffice to…
