THE QUICKENING LIFE OF JESUS

We have to realize that we cannot earn or win anything from God; we
must either receive it as a gift or do without it. The greatest
blessing spiritually is the knowledge that we are destitute; until we
get there Our Lord is powerless. He can do nothing for us if we think
we are sufficient of ourselves, we have to enter into His Kingdom
through the door of destitution. As long as we are rich, possessed of
anything in the way of pride or independence, God cannot do anything
for us. It is only when we get hungry spiritually that we receive the
Holy Spirit. The gift of the essential nature of God is made
effectual in us by the Holy Spirit, He imparts to us the quickening
life of Jesus, which puts “the beyond” within, and immediately “the
beyond” has come within, it rises up to “the above,” and we are
lifted into the domain where Jesus lives. (John 3:5.)

On this day…
