Think on These Things: Fragments
My soul, wait thou ONLY upon God, for my expectation is from HIM. Psa. 62:5.
=============================
Read each sentence SEPARATELY, and deliberately; bring everything to the Word of God; and
TAKE TIME TO THINK.
=============================
"They SEARCHED the scriptures DAILY whether those things were so."
=============================
"TAKE HEED UNTO THYSELF."
=============================
Let nothing come between my soul and God.
=============================
Keep nothing back from God-tell Him everything, as if He knew nothing about it.
=============================
Be mercilessly true to yourself; and have everything out with God; none will ever treat you so tenderly as He
=============================
The measure of my love for God's Word is the measure of my love for God; as you treat it, so you treat Him.
=============================
There is no halting-place short of conformity to Christ; but there is no need to be disheartened, the Holy Spirit is here to work this out in us.
=============================
We have a four-fold strength:
The Holy Spirit,
The Word of God,
The Throne of Grace,
A pair of knees,
Make use of them; but there is nothing for lazy people
=============================
Take time to pray.
=============================
Buy the truth and sell it not. There is a bidder for it-the devil.
=============================
Dig into the Word, and meditate upon it. Use your spare moments in the street-anywhere-for meditation. Learn to abstract yourself.
=============================
Spiritual thinking is what we need; we must work it into our souls. God will reward you. "He that tilleth his land shall have plenty of bread." Only that which you appropriate benefits you. See Prov. 12:27.
=============================
In studying the Word, have a distinct method of procedure. Study subjects.
=============================
Is the fear of man before me, or am I satisfied with the private approval of Christ?
=============================
If you want to get on, keep on praying.
"Meditate Upon These Things."
God is my only necessity God is my only resource.
=============================
God wants to be everything to every one of us at every moment.
=============================
Christianity is CONformative, not REformative. We belong to an entirely new thing; every particle of power comes from Christ in glory.
=============================
God loves the weakest saint.
=============================
Get God's estimate of God's things, and God's estimate of everything.
=============================
Our difficulties should be food for faith-not material for failure.
=============================
Convert every difficulty into prayer.
=============================
If we go through a difficulty with God, all that bound us will be destroyed-Dan. 3:24 and 25-and all that is of God will stand.
=============================
Delay is not denial. God will come in at the right moment. My soul, wait thou only upon God; for my expectation is from Him.
=============================
God is behind everything and there is nothing behind God.
=============================
Faith and God see alike. God has Christ before Him-not sin; and faith has the same object as God. Dan. 3:16-18-The dignity of faith. "God hath not given us the spirit of fear; but of power, and of love, and of a sound mind."
=============================
Whatever humbles me, helps me.
=============================
Not a particle of pride will enter glory. "The proud He knoweth afar off."-Psa. 138:6. See Isa. 66:2.
=============================
Leave off judging other people, and judge yourself. Rom. 14:12 and 13.
=============================
Set your face in the direction of what you wish to accomplish; and in reading, set your face in the
direction of the truth you wish to understand.
=============================
Try and help one another on for eternity: and let nothing come in to hinder prayer.
=============================
"O taste and see that the Lord is good."
=============================
IF YE KNOW THESE THINGS, HAPPY ARE YE IF YE DO THEM." JOHN 13:17
