Be Used by the Spirit in Christ’s Service, July 31
Great and marvelous are Your works, Lord God Almighty! Just and true are
Your ways, O King of the saints! Who shall not fear You, O Lord, and glorify
Your name? For You alone are holy. For all nations shall come and worship
before You.
Revelation 15:3, 4
, NKJV.
God will move upon those in humble positions to declare the message of present
truth. Many such will be seen hastening hither and thither, constrained by the Spirit
of God to give the light to those in darkness. The truth is as a fire in their bones,
filling them with a burning desire to enlighten those who sit in darkness. Many,
even among the uneducated, will proclaim the Word of the Lord. Children will be
impelled by the Holy Spirit to go forth to declare the message of heaven. The Spirit
will be poured out upon those who yield to His promptings. Casting off humanity’s
binding rules and cautious movements, they will join the army of the Lord.
In the future, those in the common walks of life will be impressed by the Spirit
of the Lord to leave their ordinary employment and go forth to proclaim the last
message of mercy. As rapidly as possible they are to be prepared for labor, that
success may crown their efforts. They cooperate with heavenly agencies, for they
are willing to spend and be spent in the service of the Master. No one is authorized
to hinder these workers. They are to be bidden Godspeed as they go forth to fulfill
the great commission. No taunting word is to be spoken of them as in the rough
places of the earth they sow the gospel seed.
Life’s best things—simplicity, honesty, truthfulness, purity, unsullied integrity—
cannot be bought or sold; they are as free to the ignorant as to the educated, to the
black person as to the white person, to the humble peasant as to the king upon his
throne.
Humble workers, who do not trust in their own strength, but who labor in
simplicity, trusting always in God, will share in the joy of the Savior. Their
persevering prayers will bring souls to the cross. In cooperation with their self-
sacrificing efforts Jesus will move upon hearts, working miracles in the conversion
of souls. Men and women will be gathered into church fellowship. Meetinghouses
will be built and schools established. The hearts of the workers will be filled with
joy as they see the salvation of God.—
