The ALL must be sealed with the ONLY. Are you willing to be ONLY for Jesus? You have not given ALL to Jesus while you are not quite ready to be, ONLY for Him.

There is no love so deep and wide than that which is kept for Jesus. It flows both fuller and farther when it flows only through Him.

…The wondrous love, the perfect love
Our Father’s sweetest name;
His name and very essence
And His will are all the same!

All true surrender of the will is based upon love and knowledge of, and confidence in, the one to whom it is surrendered.

Revelation 5:12 declares, “Worthy is the Lamb that was slain to receive…riches,…” when you stop and realize who Jesus is in all His omnipotent majesty and what He has wondrously done…it should be obvious to us that He is the only One worthy to receive our riches.

“There must be filling before there can be pouring out; and if there is filling there must be pouring out”

“If the clouds be full of rain, they empty themselves upon the earth.”…May we be so filled with the Spirit that we may thus have much to pour out for others!”

If Christ were to lose you, it would be a great loss to you, but a greater loss to Him. If I can perish with Christ in me, I shall certainly be a fearful loser, but so will He, for where is His honor, where His glory if a believer perishes? His glory is gone if one soul that trusts in Him is ever cast away.

The Lord will not be content to give us less than glory. grace is very sweet, but might we not be content to swim forever in a sea of grace? But no, our Lord “will give grace and glory.”

Christ delights to dwell with an eager people, a hungry people, a people who value Him and cannot be happy without Him.

I was thinking, the other day, how different Christ is from all the friends and helpers that we have. They bring us good things, but Jesus gives us Himself. He does not merely give us wisdom, righteousness, sanctification, and redemption, but He Himself is made of God all these things to us! Hence we can never do without Him.

I have never yet found a text that had not a road to Christ in it—and if I ever do find one that has not a road to Christ in it, I will make one! I will go over hedge and ditch but I would get at my Master, for the sermon cannot do any good unless there is a savor of Christ in it.”
