According To The Power That Works In Us
When we reach the place of union with God
through the indwelling of the Holy Spirit,
we come into the inheritance of external blessing
and enter upon the land of our possession.
Then our health and physical strength come to us
through the power of our interior life.
Then the prayer is fulfilled that we shall be
in health and prosper as our soul prospers.
Then, with the kingdom of God and His righteousness
within us all things are added unto us.
God's external working always keeps pace with the
power that works in us. When God is enthroned in
a human soul, the devil and the world soon find it out.
We do not need to advertise our power.
Jesus could not be hid, and a soul filled with divine power
and purity should become the center of attraction to
hungry hearts and Suffering lives. Let us receive Him
and recognize Him in His indwelling glory, and then will we
appropriate all that it means for our life in all its fullness.
Lord, give me the "hiding of thy power,"
and let Christ be glorified in me.
