  • THE KEY TO THE MASTER’S ORDERS

    My Utmost For His Highest Pray ye therefore the Lord of the harvest, that He will send forth labourers into His harvest. Matthew 9:38.

    My Utmost For His Highest And He is the propitiation for our sins: and not for ours only, but also for the sins of the whole world. 1 John 2:2.

    My Utmost For His Highest The key to the missionary All power is given unto Me in heaven and in earth. Go ye therefore, and teach all nations. Matthew 28:18–20 . The basis of missionary appeals is the authority of Jesus Christ, not the needs of the heathen. We are apt to look upon Our…

    My Utmost For His Highest Moses went unto his brethren, and looked on their burdens. Exodus 2:11.

  • PULL YOURSELF TOGETHER

    My Utmost For His Highest Yield your members servants to righteousness unto holiness. Romans 6:13–22 . I cannot save and sanctify myself; I cannot atone for sin; I cannot redeem the world; I cannot make right what is wrong, pure what is impure, holy what is unholy. That is all the sovereign work of God.…

  • THE EXCLUSIVENESS OF CHRIST

    My Utmost For His Highest Come unto Me. Matthew 11:28. Is it not humiliating to be told that we must come to Jesus! Think of the things we will not come to Jesus Christ about. If you want to know how real you are, test yourself by these words—“Come unto Me.” In every degree in…

  • RECONCILIATION

    My Utmost For His Highest For He hath made Him to be sin for us, who knew no sin; that we might be made the righteousness of God in Him. 2 Cor. 5:21. Sin is a fundamental relationship; it is not wrong doing, it is wrong being, deliberate and emphatic independence of God. The Christian…
