THE LIFE MUST FOLLOW THE VISION

Luke 2:42-52

There is no standing still in life. Jesus came in touch with the teachers, and his heart and life opened in response. He awakened, and he matured. Many times one is awakened, but instead of maturing, the life just halts, and a halt of that kind means a dulling vision. The life must follow close to the vision, else we lose instead of gaining in strength.

Hebrews 7:25 Wherefore he is able also to save them to the uttermost that come unto God by him, seeing he ever liveth to make intercession for them.

KEEP THE NEEDLE STEADY

Psalms 103:13-22

God’s Word is full of beautiful promises, and they lead us to fascinating results. Results are magnetic. The needle-point of our desire turns their way. But there are always conditions. Conditions unfulfilled keep the needle-point on the wabble; fulfilled, hold it true to its object. Remembering his precepts to do them steadies the needle-point: it points true and straight to the results that are surely coming. When we are absorbed with obedience the results are bound to come.

Luke 19:10 For the Son of man is come to seek and to save that which was lost.

LOVE WHEN YOU CAN’T LIKE

John 15:8-17

We may not be able always to agree, but if we keep the heart full of warm, tender love for others, we shall be able to see matters from another’s angle as well as our own. Lack of love shuts out sympathy, and shortens the vision, and loses the poise. And let’s remember that we can love even when we find it impossible to like. The soul of any man is lovable, though his ways may not be.

Philippians 2:8  And being found in fashion as a man, he humbled himself, and became obedient unto death, even the death of the cross.

DO IT!

James 1:19-27

We know only what we experience. We cannot know the truth of God’s Word until we do it. The reason why some doubt the power of Jesus, both for personal victory and for helping others, is because they have stopped short of doing. Thinking religious thoughts and approving them is not enough. “Whatsoever he saith unto you, do it.” Only so can there be victory in the life, and power through the life with those whom we touch.

Philippians 2:7  But made himself of no reputation, and took upon him the form of a servant, and was made in the likeness of men:

YOU CAN WILL TO LOVE

John 14:15-24

We have neither the disposition nor the power to obey our Lord until we love him first and most of all. His presence within gives power to overcome the opposition to his will. And love makes the heart more fit for his indwelling. When we know Jesus we love him. And love always delights in pleasing the one loved. If we have any trouble obeying, let’s get better acquainted with Jesus. He is always wooing us with loving-kindness.
