The Breaking of the Outer Man and the Release of the Spirit
Every Christian who has believed into Christ and received Him has a desire to grow in Him.
The greatest hindrances to the experience circumstances and environmental hardships; rather, they are a mind in need of renewing, a will in nedd of submission to God, and an emotion in need of stability. In The Breaking of the Outer Man and the Release of the Spirit Watchman Nee provides a clear picture of the need for the breaking of the outer man so that the life of Christ in our spirit can flow out as rivers of living water to refresh and build up the people of God. Watchman Nee provides crucial insight into the biblical revelation of the necessity of the dividing of our soul from our spirit.
Let Us Pray
What is prayer? Are we really praying when we pray? Do we know the power of prayer? These matters and others must be understood if we would have a real prayer life and be effective in prayer. In this little volume of collected messages given over a long period of ministry by the author, and which are now translated and published in English, Watchman Nee shares with us the lessons on prayer that he has learned through the years. He considers prayer to be a mystery, though not something that is incomprehensible. He views prayer as the greatest work to which men are called. It is a working together with God. Through it, God's purpose is accomplished and Satan's intentions are broken. And its benefit to the one who prays is something great as well. Let us therefore follow the admonition of our blessed Lord, who "Rise and pray" (Luke 22.46).
God's work
Every Christian must distinguish between God's work and that of the Christian. Many Christians to please God try to do God's work. And trying to do God's work is dangerous. Trying to do God's work can destroy us. It leads us to frustrate ourselves and others. We must know what God's work is.
Watchaman Nee will teach us through the word of God what is God's work and what is not. Distinguishing this can save us a lot of pain and allow us to live in peace. Knowing that God is the one who transforms lives, that God is the one who heals hearts and families allows us to do our work without getting tired and without frustration.
