- Have
you noticed? We need to hear the basics all the time.
I have never tired of hearing
Billy Graham. If you listen carefully, he seems to have the same
theme and often repeats himself. But his message is anointed,
and basic. The Lord has appointed him to preach it, and although
it is evangelistic, believers revel in hearing God's man present
the simplicity of the Gospel.
Isn't it precious?
We need the same basic things over
and over, and interestingly enough, we never seem to tire of
the subjects.
What are they? Prayer, repentance,
obedience, love, the faithfulness of God, the sweetness of faith,
the importance of waiting. . .
- All of
the word of God can fit into a few precious categories and each
is infinite. No matter how much you know, the most basic, simple
statement arouses a response.
There is no end to Him. The
word "and" is infinite when He speaks. We think we
know much, yet, those who are really saved have a witness that
leaps as soon as He is allowed to speak Truth through a human
mouth.
- Stop looking
for something "deep". Enjoy the most simple statements
you can think of. Make a list of them and thank the Lord for
them outloud.
We have the privilege
of being able to escape the complex into the Divine depth which
is always simple.
Hallelujah!
Hallelujah!
