• “If we do anything to further the kingdom of God, we may expect to find what Christ found on that road – abuse, indifference, injustice, misunderstanding, trouble of some kind. Take it. Why not? To that you were called. If we think of the glorious fact that we are on the same path with Jesus, we might see a rainbow.” – Elisabeth Elliot

Nothing but the Truth by Nancy Leigh DeMoss 06/20/11

Nancy Leigh DeMoss: When God revives a heart, it brings about true humility.

“Revival began in my life when I humbled myself and called a judge’s office. Years earlier I’d been a witness in a federal court trial, and I hadn’t told the whole truth.”

Nancy: In times of revival, God convicts His people of their sin and calls them to repentance.

“God was speaking to my heart about this sin. I had to make it right, even though I knew I might end up in jail.”

Nancy: Maybe there’s a situation in your life that requires humility. Remember these words from Proverbs 29: “A man’s pride will bring him low, but the humble in spirit will retain honor” (verse 23).

“After a total wait of about a year, I got word that neither side wanted to reopen the case. I was a free man. But true freedom had come when I had humbled myself and said yes to God.”

With Seeking Him, I’m Nancy Leigh DeMoss.

  • “How very narrow is the gate that leads to a life in God! (Mt 7:14) How little one must be to pass through it, it being nothing else but death to self! But when we have passed through it, what enlargement do we find! David said, ‘He brought me forth also in a large place’ (Ps. 18:19). And it was through humiliation and abasement that he was brought there.” – from Madame Guyon’s autobiography Ch. 22
