Freed from their sins and healed by Jesus
Being able to help people in such an extraordinary way has given you a certain satisfaction, I suppose. I was very, very happy to see that some people were cured. But I never forgot who the Helper was. Whenever a letter like that came to me about healing, I would kneel down with those words: 'Look, My Saviour, this is for You, the thanks are for You,... but I can rejoice in this too, can't I? Were you also a pastor of the sick? I suppose praying over the sick and caring for the sick go hand in hand. If I was called to see a patient, that was the first question before prayer: "Is everything okay between you and the Savior?" In many cases, confession followed, clearing the way for a prayer of faith. James did not write in vain: "...even if he has sinned, he will be forgiven" (James 5:14-17) ... I am thinking here of the story of the healing of the man with a stroke (Matthew 9:2), who was first freed from his sins and then heal...
II. Almost Incredible Promises - Part 1.
From the book: The Kneeling Christian by Albert Richardson If you have faith and doubt not … all things, whatsoever you shall ask in prayer, believing, you shall receive. Mt 21:22 "When we stand with Christ in glory, looking o'er life's finished story," the most amazing feature of that life as it is looked back upon will be its prayerlessness. We shall be beside ourselves with astonishment that we spent so little time in real intercession. It will be our turn to wonder . In our Lords last discourse to His loved ones, just before the most wonderful of all prayers, the Master again and again held out His kingly golden scepter and said, as it were, "What is your request? It shall be granted unto you, even unto the whole of My kingdom." Do we believe this? We must, if we believe our Bibles. Shall we just read over very quietly and thoughtfully one of our Lord's promises, reiterated so many times? If we had never read them befo...
II. Almost Incredible Promises Part 2.
From the book: The Kneeling Christian by Albert Richardson If you have faith and doubt not … all things, whatsoever you shall ask in prayer, believing, you shall receive. Mt 21:22 Do we doubt His power? Not for a moment. Has He not said, All power is given unto me in heaven and in earth. Go ye ... and, behold, I am with you always (Matt. 28:18-20)? Do we doubt His wisdom? Do we mistrust His choice for us? Not for a moment. And yet, very few of His followers consider prayer worthwhile. Of course, they would deny this, but actions speak louder than words. Are we afraid to put God to the test? He has said we may do so. Bring ye all the tithes into the storehouse, ... and prove me now in this, said the LORD of the hosts, if I will not open you the windows of heaven and pour you out a blessing that there shall not be room enough to receive it (Mal. 3:10). Whenever God makes us a promise, let us boldly say, as did the apostle Paul, I believe God, that it shall be e...
How to obtain the fullness of power for Christian life – chpt. 3 part I
This article is part of the "Vitalize" pack Reuben A. Torrey: "How to Obtain Fulness of Power For Christian life?" Chapter 3 — The Power of the Holy Spirit sample, part I "Power belongeth unto God." Ps 62 Intro The Holy Spirit is the person who imparts to the individual believer the power that belongs to God. This is the Holy Spirit's work in the believer, to take what belongs to God and make it ours. All the manifold power of God belongs to the children of God as their birthright in Christ, "All things are yours." (1 Cor. 3:21) But all that belongs to us as our birthright in Christ becomes ours in actual and experimental possession through the Holy Spirit's work in us as individuals. To the extent that we understand and claim for ourselves the Holy Spirit's work, to that extent do we obtain for ourselves the fulness of power in Christian life and service that God has provided for us in Christ. A very la...
Ethical Culture & Character (?)
“the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness, and self-control; against such things there is no Law.” Gal 5:22-23 Settle it clearly and forever that the flesh can never bear this fruit, that you can never attain these things by your own effort. That they are "the fruit of the Spirit." We hear a good deal in these days about "ethical culture," which usually means a cultivation of the flesh 'until it bears the fruit' of the Spirit. It cannot be done, until thorns can be made to bear figs, and a bramble-bush, grapes. (Luke 6:44; Matt. 12:33) We hear also a good deal about "character building." That is all very well, if you let the Holy Spirit do the building, and then it is not so much building as fruit bearing. (See, however, 2 Peter 1:5-7) We hear also about "cultivating graces of character," but we must always bear in mind that the w...
How to obtain the fullness of power for Christian life – cpt. 3 part II
This article is part of the "Vitalize" pack Reuben A. Torrey: "How to Obtain Fulness of Power For Christian life?" Chapter 3 — The Power of the Holy Spirit sample, part II "Power belongeth unto God." Ps 62 8. Further down in the chapter there is a new thought. Rom. 8:16: "The Spirit [himself] beareth witness with our spirit, that we are children of God." The Holy Spirit bears witness with the spirit of the believer that he is a child of God. Note that Paul does not say that the Spirit bears witness to our spirit, but with it— "together with our spirit," is the exact force of the words used. That is, there are two who bear witness to our sonship: First, our spirit bears witness that we are children of God; second, the Holy Spirit bears witness together with our spirit that we are children of God. How does the Holy Spirit bear His testimony to this fact? Gal. 4:6 answers this question: "Because ...
He does not open with..
... I went for a short walk one afternoon. As I wanted to praise and pray on the way, I made my way towards the nearby forest and thought I'd take the narrow road to Interlaken. When I reached the fork in the road, I felt something strange. It was as if the trap had closed after a while. So I turned back and continued in the opposite direction, towards the village. After a few minutes, the road continued past a garden where an old woman was working. I had to call her. After a few words over the fence, the old woman asked me to come in. Inside, I was quite moved when she told me that she had asked the Lord in her morning prayer: Send me your delegate today! And He did! After discussion and prayer with her, I continued my journey with a joyful heart, thankful that I had heeded that gentle warning in the forest. When I first told this experience somewhere, I had to add: "The Savior does not open with a squeak, does not close with a clang!" It takes a subtl...
Nem úgy nyit...
... Valamelyik délután kisebb sétát tettem. Mivel útközben dicsőíteni és imádkozni akartam, a közeli erdő felé vettem utamat és úgy gondoltam rátérek az Interlaken felé vezető keskeny útra. Midőn az elágazáshoz értem, valami különöset éreztem. Olyan volt, mintha a csapás egy idő után bezáródott volna. Így hát visszafordultam, és az ellenkező irányban meneteltem tovább, a falu felé. Percek múlva az út egy kert mellett vezetett tovább, melyben egy öregasszony dolgozott. Meg kellett szólítanom. Néhány a kerítésen át váltott szó után az öregasszony megkért, hogy jöjjek be. Bent egészen meghatottan mondta, hogy a reggeli imájában így kérte az Urat: Küldd el nekem még ma az egyik küldöttedet! És Ő megtette! Beszélgetés és imádkozás után örvendező szívvel folytattam utamat, hálásan azért, hogy eleget tettem annak a halk figyelmeztetésnek az erdőben. Midőn ezt az élmény először valahol elmeséltem, hozzá kellett tegyem: "Az Üdvözítő nem úgy nyit, hogy recsegjen, nem zár ú...
I. God's Great Desire
From the book: The Kneeling Christian by Albert Richardson If you have faith and doubt not … all things, whatsoever you shall ask in prayer, believing, you shall receive. Mt 21:22 “God wondered.” This is a striking thought. The very boldness of the idea ought to arrest the attention of every earnest Christian man, woman, and child. A wondering God. How staggered we might be if we knew the cause of God’s “wonder.” Yet we apparently find it to be a very little thing. But if we are willing to consider the matter carefully, we shall discover it to be of greatest possible importance to every believer on the Lord Jesus Christ. Nothing else is so momentous – so vital – to our spiritual welfare. God wondered that there was no intercessor (Isa. 59:16). But this was in the days of long ago, before the coming of the Lord Jesus Christ, full of grace and truth. This was before the outpouring of the Holy Spirit, full of grace and power, who helps our weakness; … but the...
Ráállni az ígéretekre
- Ezredes, szabad ennyire ráállni ezekre az ígéretekre? Nem zsarolás ez? - Részemről Isten Szava az Isten Szava. Én nem vagyok tekintettel sem magamra, sem a hitemre, vagy hitetlenségemre, sem mások szükségére, kétkedésére, nehézségeire, csak egy a fontos: Ráállni, igen komolyan és szilárd bizalommal Isten ígéreteire, úgy, ahogy írva van. Hányszor helyeztem kezeimet egy ígéretre. Pl. Ézs. 53:5, vagy Luk. 4:18-21, vagy Márk 16:18-ra ezekkel a szavakkal: - Üdvözítőm! Itt az van írva! Köszönöm Neked a sebeid által való gyógyulást. Ez érvényes X-re is, én nem távozom el Tőled, köszönöm, köszönöm, egyszerűen köszönöm Neked! Egy este, elalvás előtt még felnyitottam a Bibliát az Ézs.53:5-nél. Imádkoztam és köszönetet mondtam ezért az ígéretért, egy betegre való tekintettel: - Üdvözítőm, ez erre a szegény asszonyra is vonatkozik! Ezzel elaludtam. Midőn felébredtem, a lap az Ézs.53:5-tel a kezemhez volt ragadva és nehéz volt eltávolítani onnan. Ó, mennyi...
Pensamos que sólo nosotros podemos
del libro: "Autoridad" por Martyn Lloyd-Jones ... Una declaración en los Salmos dice, 'El que habita en los cielos se reirá', y yo creo que Dios a veces se ríe de la Iglesia. Nos ve dispuestos a extender nuestras manos para sostener el arca. Pensamos que sólo nosotros podemos hacerlo. Estamos muy preocupados. Celebramos nuestras conferencias y sacamos nuestras propuestas. Pero no llegan a nada. Entonces, cuando estamos completamente agotados, después de todas nuestras grandes campañas, conferencias y nuestra brillante organización, y después de que hemos gastado todo nuestro dinero, y las cosas han ido aún de mal en peor, Dios inesperadamente -en el último lugar donde jamás hubieras esperado que lo hiciera y a través de la última persona en la que hubieras pensado- derrama de repente el Espíritu. Entonces la Iglesia se eleva a un nuevo período de gloria, de poder y de influencia. Hombres y mujeres se convierten en masa, y el poder de la verdad está d...
A sötét völgyön át
A Jézus Véréért való dicséret és köszönet, az Ő Szent Vérének győzelme , ezek voltak a legerősebb "gyógyszereim". Enélkül a titok nélkül nem jutottam volna túl a fájdalmaimon. Arra is rá kell mutatnom, hogy nem elégséges az, ha csak gyorsan, pár perc alatt mondunk dicséretet és köszönetet. Előfordult, hogy az éjszakában két-három órán át dicsértem és hálát adtam és dicsőítettem Jézus Vérének erejét, amíg a fájdalmak és szorongások el nem múltak. Ez mérvadó másfajta kísértésekkel szemben is. Az ellenség gyűlöl minden dicsőítést és hálaadást. Igen, mert ezek őt valóságosan elűzik. A Zsolt.50,23. valóság: "Aki hálával áldozik, az dicsőít engem, és aki az útra vigyáz, annak mutatom meg Isten szabadításat. Ez volt az én egyik legkedvesebb zsoltárom és igazságát gyakran átéltem. Ó, ha ezt többször vennék igénybe a keresztények akkor másképp állna sokak sorsa! Emil Nigg Életrajz és cikkek A teljes életrajzi könyv ingyenesen letölthető itt, magy...
