Thank God for the Pressure of His Hand – Part 7

If you recall last time we look at:

Thank God for our Sanctification Part 6

"Take My yoke upon you, and learn of Me." Matthew 11:29.

       “'Whom the Lord loves, He chastens.' How petty our complaining is! Our Lord begins to bring us into the place where we can have communion with Him, and we groan and say—‘Oh Lord, let me be like other people!’ Jesus is asking us to take one end of the yoke—‘My yoke is easy, get alongside Me and we will pull together.’

      "Are you identified with the Lord Jesus like that? If so, you will thank God for the pressure of His hand. “To them that have no might He increase strength?” God comes and takes us out of our sentimentality and our complaining turns into a psalm of praise. The only way to know the strength of God is to take the yoke of Jesus upon us and learn of Him. 'The joy of the Lord is your strength.'

      "Where do the saints get their joy from? If we did not know some saints, we would say— ‘Oh, he, or she, has nothing to bear.’ Lift the veil. The fact that the peace and the light and the joy of God are there is proof that the burden is there too. The burden God places squeezes the grapes and out comes the wine; most of us see the wine only. No power on earth or in hell can conquer the Spirit of God in a human spirit, it is an inner unconquerableness. If you have the whine in you, kick it out...."

     Let me ask you again! – Do you feel it? Do you feel the pressure of the Lord’s Hand on You?

If you recall last time we looked at:

Thank God for working into us the Nature of Jesus – Part 5

"This is the will of God, even your sanctification." 1 Thessalonians 4:3

      "It is not a question of whether God is willing to sanctify me; is it my will? Am I willing to let God do in me all that has been made possible by the Atonement? Am I willing to let Jesus be made sanctification to me, and to let the life of Jesus be manifested in my mortal flesh? Beware of saying—‘Oh, I am longing to be sanctified.’ You are not, stop longing and make it a matter of transaction— 'Nothing in my hands I bring.' Receive Jesus Christ to be made sanctification to you in implicit faith, and the great marvel of the Atonement will be made real in you. ...

      "My attitude as a saved and sanctified soul is that of profound humble holiness (there is no such thing as proud holiness), holiness based on agonizing repentance and a sense of unspeakable shame and degradation; and also on the amazing realization that the love of God commended itself to me.... No wonder Paul says nothing is 'able to separate us from the love of God, which is in Christ Jesus our Lord.'

     "Sanctification makes me one with Jesus Christ, and in Him one with God and it is done only through the superb Atonement of Christ. Never put the effect as the cause. The effect in me is obedience and service and prayer, and is the outcome of speechless thanks and adoration for the marvelous sanctification wrought out in me because of the Atonement."

TIPPING POINT

      It’s time for all the so called true Republican Conservative Candidates running for President of the greatest nation on earth to stop all their in-fighting, and seriously begin addressing how to get our nation turned around, headed back toward the prosperous country we all once knew and loved. Of course to do this we know all true Christians, Conservatives, and Independent voters must make a concerted stand against the ‘Liberal Progressive Destructive Machine’. We must make our current President (Barack Obama), a one term President, plus take the majority of the Senate.

    The US Banking Systems, Federal Reserve, and Federal Government Politician Elites have squandered the money of our Children and Grandchildren by creating a National Debt that is unsustainable, which threatens to destroy the very fabric of our nation. Statistics indicate that the total current US Debt if added and divided equally, each family would owe more than $683,000? Well we should all just write a check and sent it to Uncle Sam to pay off our share!!!  

     The freedom and Prosperity of America is being stolen, and the majority of people in America have their heads buried in the sand. Folks: Wake up, Stand-up and pray!
