1.) Humility and Success
Elijah Passed the Test of Success - The prophet had won a great victory on Mount Carmel. The fire had fallen, he had been vindicated and honored by God, the people were convinced, and the prophets of Baal had been slain by the hundreds. Through all this amazing success he kept in his proper place before God. He was humble and true as ever and went ...read more
2.) SOUL HELP Chapter 1 ~ The Soul
THE SOUL
AMONG the mysteries there is none profounder than the human soul.
Everything about it savors of the unknown. The inexplorable and
unexplainable meet us at every turn in spite of much that is known, and
that is being discovered.
Every night hundreds if not thousands of telescopes are pointed at distant
stars and planets in the end ...read more
3.) SOUL HELP Chapter 2 ~ The Way of Salvation
ONE of the marvelous facts in the spiritual life is the possibility of
communication with the invisible God. The eternal world can be heard
from. A cable has been laid joining earth and heaven and its name is prayer.
Upon this line flits the human cry, and back flashes the divine message
perfectly understood by the one to whom it is sent.
Be ...read more
4.) SOUL HELP Chapter 3 ~ Christian Service
THERE are many kinds of employment, or services on earth. There are
numbers of them which, while perfectly proper, legitimate and honorable,
will do nothing for the soul in the way of enlargement and improvement.
Cotton picking, corn pulling and selling goods are all right in themselves,
but there is nothing in them to develop the intellectual ...read more
5.) SOUL HELP Chapter 4 ~ Christian Pay
THE fact of service suggests the thought of remuneration. A certain
equivalent is given in the world for labor and called pay. When a man
undertakes toil for another the understanding is that he is to be
recompensed.
This universal observance is not dropped in the spiritual life, and is found
working there with greater results and richer sat ...read more
6.) SOUL HELP Chapter 5 ~ The Uses of Temptation
ONE of the features of a probationary state is the fact of temptation. It
may come directly from an evil spirit, or from a pleasing object. It maybe
felt as a brooding horror upon the soul, or approach with a promised
delight to the body. In its assault upon the citadel of a man's life, the Will,
temptation travels upon various routes. Its form ...read more
7.) SOUL HELP Chapter 6 ~ The Compensating Experience
WITH certain Christian people the expression, I have 'a satisfying
portion,' seems to excite wonder and disapproval. To some it savors of
boasting, to others it sounds unscriptural, and to still others it betrays
ignorance of the laws of growth and that constant advancement in divine
things which should mark the course of the child of God. The ...read more
8.) SOUL HELP Chapter 7 ~ The Rod of Moses
WE read in the Bible that God was about to induct Moses into a great
work for which he had been preparing him for years. The self-distrustful
man had pleaded his slowness of speech and conscious inability to
perform what was expected of him whether he went to the people or
stood before Pharaoh. It was then God asked him what he had in his hand. ...read more
9.) SOUL HELP Chapter 8 ~ The Limp of Jacob
Jacob, in the face of a great trouble looming up in the near future, had met
God on the side of the brook Peniel. The prayer of that night in its length,
agony, wrestling spirit and great triumph has swept up to a first place
among all victorious supplications.
At daybreak the man of God crossed the brook as a conqueror in the
spiritual real ...read more
