  • THOU DIDST LEAVE THY THRONE

    ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Despite firmly believing Yeshua was born in Autumn as the shepherds were out overnight in the field, it was tax season, Mary and Joseph slept out of doors, I wanted to share this hymn. The King of Glory – your Creator – left his Throne in heaven to incarnate in his Creation to redeem…

  • Morning & Evening

    Let us to-day go down to Bethlehem, and in company with wondering shepherds and adoring Magi, let us see him who was born King of the Jews, for we by faith can claim an interest in him, and can sing, “Unto us a child is born, unto us a son is given.” Jesus is Jehovah…

  • THE HIDDEN LIFE

    My Utmost For His Highest The Spirit of God witnesses to the simple, almighty security of the life hid with Christ in God, and this is continually brought out in the Epistles. We talk as if it were the most precarious thing to live the sanctified life; it is the most secure thing, because it…

  • Morning & Evening

    The Lord Jesus Christ was eternally rich, glorious, and exalted; but “though he was rich, yet for your sakes he became poor.” As the rich saint cannot be true in his communion with his poor brethren unless of his substance he ministers to their necessities, so (the same rule holding with the head as between…

  • HOW CAN I PERSONALLY PARTAKE IN THE ATONEMENT?

    My Utmost For His Highest But God forbid that I should glory save in the cross of our Lord Jesus Christ. Gal. 6:14. The Gospel of Jesus Christ always forces an issue of will. Do I accept God’s verdict on sin in the Cross of Christ? Have I the slightest interest in the death of…

  • Morning & Evening

    When first the life of grace begins in the soul, we do indeed draw near to God, but it is with great fear and trembling. The soul conscious of guilt, and humbled thereby, is overawed with the solemnity of its position; it is cast to the earth by a sense of the grandeur of Jehovah,…

  • THE DRAWING OF THE FATHER

    My Utmost For His Highest No man can come to Me, except the Father which hath sent Me draw him. John 6:44. When God draws me, the issue of my will comes in at once—will I react on the revelation which God gives; will I come to Him? Discussion on spiritual matters is an impertinence.…

  • Morning & Evening

    God has a strong reserve with which to discharge this engagement; for he is able to do all things. Believer, till thou canst drain dry the ocean of omnipotence, till thou canst break into pieces the towering mountains of almighty strength, thou never needest to fear. Think not that the strength of man shall ever…

  • THE RIGHT LINES OF WORK

    My Utmost For His Highest I, if I be lifted up, will draw all men unto Me. John 12:32. Very few of us have any understanding of the reason why Jesus Christ died. If sympathy is all that human beings need, then the Cross of Christ is a farce, there was no need for it.…

  • WHILE SHEPHERDS WATCHED THEIR FLOCKS

    Amazing Grace Nahum Tate, 1652–1715 Today in the town of David a Savior has been born to you; He is Christ the Lord. (Luke 2:11) In the spring of the year, the lambing season, shepherds in ancient times would sit all night beside their flocks, watching for wolves or other dangers and even feeding orphan…
