Secret Power / or the Secret of Success in Christian Life and Work

  • Rachel Brownhas quoted9 years ago
    People will get up and try to fight the devil with their experiences, but he don’t care for that, he will overcome them every time. People are trying to fight the devil with theories and pet ideas, but he will get the victory over them likewise. What we want is to draw the sword of the Spirit. It is that which cuts deeper than anything else
  • Rachel Brownhas quoted9 years ago
    the moment our hearts are emptied of pride and selfishness and ambition and self-seeking, and everything that is contrary to God’s law, the Holy Ghost will come and fill every corner of our hearts; but if we are full of pride and conceit, and ambition and self-seeking, and pleasure and the world, there is no room for the Spirit of God; and I believe many a man is praying to God to fill him when he is full already with something else. Before we pray that God would fill us, I believe we ought to pray Him to empty us.
    There must be an emptying before there can be a filling; and when the heart is turned upside down, and everything is turned out that is contrary to God, then the Spirit will come, just as He did in the tabernacle, and fill us with His glory.

    So we are not going to lose anything if we tarry till we get this power. That is the object of true service, to wait on God, to tarry till we receive this power for witness-bearing.

    You can’t get water out of a dry well; you have to get something in the well, or you can’t get anything out.
  • Rachel Brownhas quoted9 years ago
    Know ye not that your body is the temple of the Holy Ghost which is in you, which ye have of God, and ye are not your own for ye are bought with a price, therefore glorify God in your body and in your spirit, which are God’s.
  • Rachel Brownhas quoted9 years ago
    Let us seek to be useful. Let us seek to be vessels meet for the Master’s use, that God, the Holy Spirit, may shine fully through us.
  • Rachel Brownhas quoted9 years ago
    Where the spirit of the Lord is, there is liberty.
  • Rachel Brownhas quoted9 years ago
    Noah worked 120 years and never had a convert, and yet he did not get discouraged
  • Rachel Brownhas quoted9 years ago
    A man who is full of the Spirit don’t need to be put under law; don’t need any policemen to watch him.
  • Rachel Brownhas quoted9 years ago
    The fruit of the Spirit, as you find it in Galatians, begins with love. There are nine graces spoken of in the sixth chapter, and of the nine different graces Paul puts love at the head of the list; love is the first thing—the first in that precious cluster of fruit. Some one has put it in this way: that all the other eight can be put in the word love. Joy is love exulting; peace is love in repose; long suffering is love on trial; gentleness is love in society; goodness is love in action; faith is love on the battlefield; meekness is love at school; and temperance is love in training. So it is love all the way; love at the top; love at the bottom, and all the way along down these graces
