The Brave Comradeship of God

Monday, August 4th, 2008

Verse: “The He took unto Him the twelve.
– Luke 18:31

Quote: “The comradeship of God is made up out of men who know their poverty. He can do nothing with the man who thinks he is of use to God.”

We must put completely out of our mind the notion that God needs us in any shape or fashion. God chooses by His perfect grace and mercy to work through us and give us an opportunity to give back with what was never ours to begin with. Before you can be of use to God, you must realize your uselessness without Him.

The Price of Vision

Verse: “In the year that king Uzziah dies, I saw also the Lord.” – Isaiah 6:1

Quote: “It must be God first, God second, and God third, until the life is faced steadily with God and no one else is of any account whatever.”

Friends are an amazing blessing and can continually point you towards God, but sometimes God will remove people from your life to help you see Him more clearly.  No matter how godly a person is, or healthy your relationship is with them, God Himself must remain top priority in your life.
