Murray, Andrew, 1828-1917

"The Master's Indwelling"

Wait on Him, if need be,
in silence, or in prayer, until He gives you the assurance, "My child, for
to-day all is safe; I take charge." And morning by morning He will renew to
you the blessing, and morning by morning you will go out from your quiet
time in the consciousness, "To-day I have had fellowship with my King, and
it is all right." Jesus has taken charge. And so, day by day, you can have
grace to leave all in the hands of Jesus.
In conclusion let me speak to two classes. There are times when your heart
is restless; there are times when you are afraid to die.
There are some true believers who have perhaps never yet understood that it
was their duty to give up everything to Christ. Beloved fellow Christians,
I come with a message from your Father, to come and to-day take that word
into your hearts and upon your lips, even though you do not understand it.
"Jesus, I make Thee Master of everything and I will wait at Thy feet, that
Thou wilt show me what Thou wouldst have me be and do." Do it now. And
let me say to believers who have done it before, and who long with an
unutterable longing to do it fully and perfectly,--Child of God, you can
do it, for the Holy Spirit has been sent down from Heaven for this one
purpose, to glorify Jesus; to glorify Jesus in your heart, by letting you
see how perfectly Jesus can take possession of the whole heart; to glorify
Jesus by bringing Him into your very life, that your whole life may shine
out with the glory of Jesus.
