STREAMS IN THE DESERT by L.B. COWMAN Blessed are those who have not seen and yet have believed. (John 20:29) How important it is for God to keep us focused on things that are unseen, for we are easily snared by the things we can see! If Peter was ever going to walk on the water, he had to walk, but if he was going to swim to Jesus, he had to swim. He could not do both. If a bird is going to fly, it must stay away from fences and trees, trusting the buoyancy of its wings. And if it tries to stay within easy reach of the ground, it will never fly very well. God had to bring Abraham to the end of his own strength and let him see that with his own body he could do nothing. He had to consider his own body "as good as dead" (Heb. 11:12) and then trust God to do all the work. When he looked away from himself and trusted only God, he became "fully persuaded that God had power to do what He had promised" (Romans 4:21). This is what God is teaching us, and He has to keep results that are encouraging away from us until we learn to trust Him without them. Then He loves to make His Word as real to us in actuality as it is in our faith. (A.B. Simpson) I do not ask that He must prove His Word is true to me. And that before I can believe He first must let me see. It is enough for me to know It's true because He says it's so. On His unchanging Word I'll stand And trust till I can understand. (E.M. Winter) | |||

STREAMS IN THE DESERT by L.B. COWMAN Jesus answered, "You could have no power at all against Me unless it had been given you from above." (John 19:11) Nothing that is not part of God's will is allowed to come into the life of someone who trusts and obeys Him. This truth should be enough to make our life one of ceaseless thanksgiving and joy, because God's will is the most hopeful, pleasant, and glorious thing in the world. It is the continuous working of His omnipotent power for our benefit, with nothing to prevent it if we remain surrendered and believing. Someone who was passing through the deep water of affliction wrote a friend: Isn't it glorious to know that no matter how unjust something may be, even when it seems to have come from Satan himself, by the time it reaches us it is God's will for us and will ultimately work to our good? "And we know that in all things God works for the good of those who love Him" (Romans 8:28). Think of what Christ said even as He was betrayed: "Shall I not drink the cup the Father has given Me?" (John 18:11). We live fascinating lives if we are living in the center of God's will. All the attacks that Satan hurls at us through the sins of others are not only powerless to harm us but are transformed into blessings along the way. (Hannah Whitfall Smith) In the center of the circle Of the will of God I stand: There can come no second causes, All must come from His dear hand. All is well! for it's my Father Who my life has planned. Shall I pass through waves of sorrow? Then I know it will be best; Though I cannot tell the reason, I can trust, and so am blest. God is Love, and God is faithful. So in perfect Peace I rest. With the shade and with the sunshine, With the joy and with the pain, Lord, I trust You! both are needed, Each Your wayward child to train, Earthly loss, if we will know it, Often means our heavenly gain. (I.G.W.) | |||

MAGNIFICENT PRAYER by NICK HARRISON Likewise, you also, reckon yourselves to be dead indeed to sin, but alive to God in Christ Jesus our Lord. Romans 6:11 God never ceases to speak to us: but the noise of the world without, and the tumult of our passions within, bewilder us and prevent us from listening to Him. (Francois Fenelon) PRAY ABOUT IT: It's hard to know which is more distracting to our prayers --- the pull of the world with its distractions or the tug of our own passions to fulfill their every desire. But in the middle of it all is the voice of God speaking to us, quite loudly actually. Listen to Him today --- reckon yourself alive to God and dead to the world and to your flesh. The first and last stages of holy living are crowned with praying. (E.M. Bounds) | |||
