Now the Way of Salvation for us was not in God making us good but in His Saving Us Out of Adam and Putting us in Christ.
SO THAT NOW, All which is of Christ Flows Into us.
As soon as we are in Adam we sin, and that only as we are in Christ do we Practice Righteousness.
JOHN 16.23-24
and in that day you will question nothing of Me; truly, truly, I say to you, as many things as you may ask of the Father in My Name, He will give you; until now you asked nothing in My Name; ask, and you will receive, that your joy may be full.
JOHN 16.26-27
In that day you will make request in My Name, and I do not say to you that I will ask the Father for you, for the Father Himself cherishes you, because you have cherished Me, and you have believed that I came forth from God;

GALATIANS 2.20
I have been crucified with Christ, and I no longer live, but Christ lives in me; and that which I now live in the flesh—I live in the faith of the Son of God, who loved me and gave Himself for me;
ROMANS 6.5
For if we have become planted together to the likeness of His death, [so] we also will be of the resurrection;

ACTS 2.4
and they were all filled with the Holy Spirit,
EPHESIANS 5.18

for even as in Adam all die, so also in the Christ all will be made alive,
God Wants to Bring us to a Condition of Utter Brokenness.
It is dreadful, if you had to do it in your own strength.
Learn to Trust in God Alone!
Have Mercy, my God!
God Help me!
And God Will.
Become Willing to Bow Before God in Conviction and Confession.
No Promise is Right BECAUSE your hand has not let go.
You yourself are still taking care of your affairs; therefore you cannot say with conviction, I have been Crucified with Christ; neither can you say, It is no longer I that Live, but Christ Liveth in me.
Death means Letting God, Putting Hands Off, no more care, and no longer control.
Only when it Becomes Impossible to you does it Begin to be Possible with God.
SO THAT the First Important Step is for you to Take Your Hands Off!
Through Prayer we Uplift the Victory of the Cross in Dealing with All Things.
The Movement of Prayer Follows the Victory of the Lord.
He Took my Cross for His Own; I Must Take His Cross as my own; I Must be Crucified With Him.
It is as I Abide Daily, Deeply in Jesus the Crucified One, that I Shall Taste the Sweetness of His Love, the Power of His Life, the Completeness of His Salvation.
The Atonement which God Has Wrought for us in Christ is Always at Once Available for our need.
Living in the Name of Christ is the Secret of Praying in His Name.
Abiding in Christ Gives the Right and the Power to Ask what we will.
The Extent of the Abiding is the Exact Measure of the Power in Prayer.
Time is for Eternity!
Service we render in time is Preparation for the Service in Eternity.
God Places us in the here and now for the Purpose of Training us to be Useful in Eternity.
Time is like a school in which we Receive Spiritual Training and Education.
Whatever Spiritual Training and Education we Receive in time makes us Truly Fit for God’s Use in Eternity.
Today the Lord Places us among the Children of God in order that we may Learn Together with them How To Serve and thus Prepare us all for our Eternal Service.
