We have Simply to be Faithful in Obedience, Carrying Out His Orders.
God has a Plan!
But alas! we too often make our plan, and we think we know what ought to be done.
We ask God first to bless our feeble efforts, INSTEAD of Absolutely Refusing to go UNLESS God Go Before us.
God has Planned for the Work!
The Holy Spirit has had That Work Given In Charge to Him.
May God, THEREFORE, Help us all to be afraid of touching the Ark of God except as we are Led By the Holy Spirit.
The Cross ENDS ALL that belongs to the first regime,
And the Resurrection Introduces ALL that pertains to the second.
Everything that had its beginning before Resurrection MUST be Wiped Out.
Resurrection is God’s New Starting Point.
What is the Prayer Ministry.
It is God Telling the Church what He Wishes To Do SO THAT the Church on earth can THEN Pray It Out.
Such Prayer is NOT Asking God to do what we want to do, BUT Asking Him To Do What He Wants To Do.
Oh, let us See that the Church is to Declare on earth the Will of God in Heaven.
From ME is thy Fruit Found!
The soul need but have One Care – to Abide Closely, Fully, Wholly.
He will Give the Fruit.
He Works all that is needed to Make the Believer a Blessing.
In That Day when God Shines on us, THEN we will Know how much we were influenced by that which was hidden.
When we in our littleness and God in His Glory Meet, we all understand that what God Says has Infinitely More Worth than what a person says.
And yet our prayer so often consists of what we need that we give God no time to Speak to us.
If we would Ask First that the Lord might Receive His,
He would Cause us to Receive ours too.
May we transform the time of Praying for our needs into a time of Praying for God’s Affairs.
God will then Hear the Prayer we have uttered – that is, Prayer for the Things of God;
But He will Also Hear the Prayer we have not uttered – that is, Prayer for our own affairs.
Seek First the Kingdom of God and His Righteousness,
And God will Add To us ALL our needs.
Prayer will be Answered
If it Aims at letting Christ
Have the First Place
In ALL THINGS.
JOHN 15:5
I am the vine, you are the branches; he who abides in Me and I in him, he bears much fruit, for apart from Me you can do nothing.
JOHN 15:8
My Father is glorified by this, that you bear much fruit, and so prove to be My disciples.

1 CORINTHIANS 4:4-5
For I am conscious of nothing against myself, yet I am not by this acquitted; but the one who examines me is the Lord. Therefore do not go on passing judgment before the time, but wait until the Lord comes who will both bring to light the things hidden in the darkness and disclose the motives of men’s hearts; and then each man’s praise will come to him from God.
JOHN 7:17
If anyone is willing to do His will, he will know of the teaching, whether it is of God or whether I speak from Myself.

PSALM 62:1
My soul waits in silence for God only;
From Him is my salvation.
PSALM 62:5
My soul, wait in silence for God only,
For my hope is from Him.

MATTHEW 6:31-34
Do not worry then, saying, ‘What will we eat?’ or ‘What will we drink?’ or ‘What will we wear for clothing?’ For the Gentiles eagerly seek all these things; for your heavenly Father knows that you need all these things. But seek first His kingdom and His righteousness, and all these things will be added to you.
“So do not worry about tomorrow; for tomorrow will care for itself. Each day has enough trouble of its own.
