The Christian Power
Tags: Daily Devotional
Our perplexities will be removed and our anxieties lightened when we heed the invitation, “Come unto me, all ye that labor and are heavy laden, and I will give you rest. Take my yoke upon you, and learn of me; for I am meek and lowly in heart; and ye shall find rest unto your souls. For my yoke is easy, and my burden is light.”Matt.11:28-30
At the entrance gate of the path that leads to everlasting life, God places faith, and he lines the whole way with the light and peace and joy of willing obedience. The traveler in this way keeps ever before him the mark of his high calling in Christ. The prize is ever in sight. To him God’s commands are righteousness and joy and peace in the Holy Spirit. The things that first appeared to be crosses are found by experience to be crowns.
“Learn of me,” is the Saviour’s command. Yes, learn of him how to live the Christ-life,—a life pure and holy, free from any taint of sin. There is power for those who receive Christ; for we read, “As many as received him, to them he gave power to become the sons of God.” John 1:12 His promise is that if we accept his invitation to learn of him, we shall be anointed with the oil of gladness. Shall we not place ourselves where we can receive this anointing?

A Lesson of Trust
The ass knows nothing about astronomy, physiology, or theology; but he does know his master’s crib; he knows whence cometh his daily supply of food, and without worry or concern rests and trusts in that knowledge: but the backslidden Israelite knows not his Master’s crib. He becomes anxious and worried, and frets, and gets discouraged about what he shall eat, and what he shall drink, and wherewithal he shall be clothed. He does not know his Master’s crib.Read The Article...
Effectual Faith
Christ followed up by saying in verse 7 “Shall not God avenge His own elect, which cry day and night unto Him, though He bear long with them.” This verse however causes many to liken God unto this unjust judge. Somehow to get something from Him, one has to continuously beg Him until He releases it —just to get rid of him so to speak. Christ, by no means, intended for any to represent God this way.

Education
True education is a grand science; for it is founded on the fear of the Lord, which is the beginning of wisdom. It's that element of "Understanding" God's ways.
Listen, we need the truth. The truth -"is" "what is"- and our LORD claimed to be "THE Truth".
Any form of education that does not pursue the truth is not worth having.
