I believe that God has new ways and new leadings and new power for
His people, if they will only wait on Him. But what most of us do is this:
we thank God for all He has given, we look at all the ways of working we
have, and we say that we will try to do our work better. But oh, if we had
a sense of the need, if we had any sense, by the vision of the Holy Ghost,
of the state of the millions around us, I am sure we would fall on our
faces before God and say, "God help me to something new. Oh that every
fiber of my being may be taken possession of for this great work with God!"
The great need is that all Christians should consecrate themselves wholly
to God for His work. May God help us to know what is the joy of the Holy
Ghost.
Concluding, I ask again: "Do you believe that it is possible for the Lord
Jesus, our Shiloh, of whom Jacob prophesied, our Joshua, our glorious King
and High Priest,--do you believe it is possible for Christ Jesus to bring
you to-day into the rest of God?" Remember that word in Hebrews, "Even as
the Holy Ghost saith, to-day.
