Truth = Trust and Yield

Truth -- Trust -- Yield

"Jesus answered and said, ' I thank You, Father ... that You have hidden these things from the wise and prudent and have revealed them to babes.'" Matthew 11:25

One of my favorite Victorious Christian living speakers is my friend, Dr. Robertson McQuilken. His father, Robert C. was one of the early founders of the Victorious Life Testimony that eventually because America's KESWICK.

One of Robertson's messages that is so powerful is the message where he teaches about the two parts of victorious Christian living = Trust and Yield. It is a powerful teaching and I would be more than happy to make it available to you on CD if you will respond to today's blog with your snail mail address.

Today you will most likely join me and my family, and you will sit under the teaching of God's Word. Your Pastor will share TRUTH from the WORD that will transform your life if you will obey/apply it to your life.

I love what Oswald Chambers writes about the TRUTH:

All of God’s revealed truths are sealed until they are opened to us through obedience. You will never open them through philosophy or thinking. But once you obey, a flash of light comes immediately.

Let God’s truth work into you by immersing yourself in it, not by worrying into it. The only way you can get to know the truth of God is to stop trying to find out and by being born again. If you obey God in the first thing He shows you, then He instantly opens up the next truth to you.

You could read volumes on the work of the Holy Spirit, when five minutes of total, uncompromising obedience would make things as clear as sunlight. Don’t say, "I suppose I will understand these things someday!" You can understand them now. And it is not study that brings understanding to you, but obedience.

Even the smallest bit of obedience opens heaven, and the deepest truths of God immediately become yours. Yet God will never reveal more truth about Himself to you, until you have obeyed what you know already. Beware of becoming one of the "wise and prudent." "If anyone wills to do His will, he shall know . . ." (John 7:17 ).

Is there a truth that the Holy Spirit has be gently nudging to take a look at? Has he been speaking to your heart and you have ignored His prompting? Don't just read the truth -- TRUST and YIELD and allow Him to work that truth into your heart and life TODAY! -- Bill Welte is President and CEO of America's KESWICK

God's WORD for YOU: Proverbs 11; Isaiah 37-38; Colossians 3

Great Quote: What's in it for me?" man says about obeying God. In this context how selfish and sinful that question is. The living God has spoken, and that is enough. The Saviour who shed his blood to save us from hell has told us how we should live, and that is enough. The loving Holy Spirit who made us alive has moved holy men to speak a word to us, and that is enough. We obey God because that glorifies God and there is nothing more than that.
