DAILY MIGHT #8--AUGUSTGP 826August 1"Heaven and Earth shall pass away, but God's Word will never pass away!" (Mt.24:35)
In especially trying times, you should live more in the Word.--You must put your faith in the Word! It doesn'tmatter if everybody in the whole world backslides, if everybody in the whole world goes haywire, if the whole Heavens andthe whole Earth pass away, you'll still keep going for God if your faith is in the Word!--No matter 
what
happens, you willstill stand if you keep on God's firm foundation of faith, balanced firmly with His Words.I can fail, you can fail, the whole world can fail. But God's Word will
never
fail!--When everything is in chaos andit seems like all is confusion and stormy, real stormy, retreat into the Word!--"Faith cometh by hearing the Word!"(Rom.10:17) Often if it were not for that spark of faith, you'd just flicker out! It's like God blowing on the little ember, and bringing it back to life again! It comes so much through hearing the Word!--His Word is always a comfort and the voice of His Spirit is always an encouragement in the hour of greatest trial, even when everything seems to have gone wrong andyou're in danger, trouble or distress.Isn't it wonderful to have God's Word for our encouragement!--Thank God for the comfort of His cleansing Word!527:4666:18 -- 527:46; 739:6 -- 309B:44527:45 -- 399:62 -- 66:18,12 -- 581:31155:5 -- 581:38
August 2"Even more than the milk of the mother to the baby which is thirsty, am I unto thee."
The baby deliberately, when he sucks, creates a vacuum inside his mouth which pulls the milk out of his mother's breast.--"So shall
My
bosom satisfy thee with the milk of My Word to the strengthening of thy sinews in the Spirit!" -- Butyou have to first create a vacuum inside your heart: "Lord, here is this empty space--You fill it!"--"For I am He that fillethall things, to pour out upon the thirsty ground, to beautify the lowly life, to enlighten the darkened minds."--(A picture of very hard, dry ground:) Every crack in the parched earth was one of His children opening wide to drink the Water of HisWord. But the water rolled right off the unyielding hard ground which would not receive it, and into the cracks that eagerlyaccepted it!"Oh, why dost thou doubt and make thy soul impoverished for lack of faith? Even the little child has more faith.Kiss the Son!
Kiss Me as the breast of thy mother
, that I shall nurse thee, and thou shalt put thy mouth upon Me and My breast and nurse from Me the milk of the truth that I have given unto thee."--"So shall I satisfy thee, and thy heart shall befilled with righteousness, and thy mouth with good things, and thy soul shall be satisfied, for thy spirit longeth unto Me! For thou shalt be filled to overflowing!"77:3773:6 -- P:2 - 73:6 -- 9:12 -- 152:982:16,26 -- 152:27
August 3Learning, learning, learning--it never ends! I love it!
We'll always be learning until the day we die.--Every day we learn some new obedience, just like a little child.Every day he learns something new. God's Word even says of Jesus that He "learned obedience through the things which Hesuffered"! (Heb.5:8) And that "He grew in stature and in wisdom." (Lk.2:52)We are now, in a sense, rehearsing for what is to come.--Like little children playing at games, doing what theyexpect to do when they're older.--This is the whole purpose of life: To
prepare
us for the next life.--We are now in our 
training period
in this life in preparation for ruling the world in the next!--In the Millennium we are going to have to learnhow to run the whole world.--And if we do not pass these tests and complete these grades and learn these lessons in
this
life, we shall surely be unfit to rule in the
next
, in the coming Kingdom of God!--So for God's sake, let's learn our lessonstoday and get them down pat!What a glorious day that will be! Even now Thou art preparing us for that day! For he that is now faithful in thesethings that are least, shall also be faithful in that which is much.--And he that hath done well with a few talents, Thou shaltmake ruler over cities! (Lk.16:10; Mt.25:23)510:27714:17 -- 727:109,104185:82 -- 332B:5 -- 727:103 -- 315A:17 - 727:103 -- 315A:17 -- 727:148185:56
 
August 4If you've got God with you, you're unbeatable, no matter how small you are!
The giant Goliath ridiculed the little lad with he slingshot, but when David cut loose with just one honest bit of rock, the Philistine phoney fell flat on his face!--"He is but a little lad in rough attire and of small stature. What can he do?He hath but a sling and five little pebbles. And yet My Spirit was upon him and I did cause him to triumph over Goliath, thegiant, where Saul had failed, and My people Israel had failed, and all of their armour had proven to no avail. Even so alsowith this My New Church--out of nowhere and from nothing with but a single pebble and a simple sling and none of thearmour or entrappings with which the Old Church hath surrounded herself.""For Jesus is with His children and He will go with them against all their enemies and overcome all evil, and thereis
none
that can stand against Him, and He will overcome the gates of Hell!"--"Therefore how shalt thou fail, for I am withthee and shall never fail and shall be with thee unto the End! So fear not, but go forth and fight thou the battles of the Lord,for it is impossible that thou shalt lose or that thou shouldst fail!"--"Go forth in the power of My Spirit and the anointing of My Oil and the authority of My Appointment, conquering and to conquer the giants of 
this
day!"171:18225:8 -- 117:7115:15 -- 128:22 -- 117:8
August 5Everything in the spirit world seems to move so slowly and so beautifully, almost like in slow motion....
Usually they only move quickly at the judgements of God--otherwise so slowly, peacefully, like a slow motiondance!--Everything seems to operate in a kind of silent music--quiet music--beautiful--just like the harmony of the spheres--the music of the stars! It's so peaceful.--Everything in absolute harmony--everything absolutely beautiful!--There are stillanimals and birds playing in the garden--birds flying from tree to tree. Everything is happy. Birds don't sing mournful songs, but happy songs. The animals are playful and happy.All the people are walking and floating at the same time--with no effort to it, they do it with ease. There's almost nogravity for them.--You just float--It's really wonderful! Even when you're walking, you're kinda floating! It doesn't seemlike your feet hardly touch the ground! Nobody's in a hurry--everybody's happily taking it easy and smiling and talking toeach other! Everybody's graceful! Unbelievably beautiful!It's a beautiful place to be, full of beautiful people having a beautiful time. They are better off, rid of the heavy oldflesh and all its problems!--The spirit world is wonderful!651:76651:76 -- 75A:12,5 -- 80:1280:39 -- 75A:66,26680:73,54 -- 713:65
August 6"Many are the afflictions of the righteous!" (Psalm 34:19)
Afflictions of 
whom
? Not of the wicked, but the afflictions of the
righteous
!--"But the Lord
delivereth
him out of them
all
!"--The Lord allows these things as tests to strengthen our faith and to get an even greater victory out of seemingdefeat.--Some things happen just to keep you close to the Lord--sickness, trouble, problems. Sometimes they happen todrive you closer to each other. Sometimes they happen to keep you humble. Sometimes they happen to make you pray--allkinds of reasons for even having troubles! So even troubles and tribulations are good for us. Thank You Lord!Whatever God does, He does it in love.--And "
all
things work together for good to them that love the Lord."(Rom.8:28) God is not going to let anything happen to you, His child who loves Him, except what is for your good.--Soeven though "many are the afflictions of the righteous", the Lord is going to deliver you out of them all, no matter howmany or what! A--L--L,
ALL
!--Not just some or a few or most or many, but all!--All of them!--So we can expect God todeliver us according to His Word."Now therefore, lift up that which is cast down and strengthen the feeble and encourage that which is turned out of the way.--And rather let it be healed--for 
this
is the will of God!"599:78569:10 -- 717:6,22 -- 739:41203:45 -- 739:9 -- 551:19 -- 599:78 -- 569:109,11019:3
August 7
 
The spirit world is all so real and down to earth!
God's visible creation is an illustration of the things in the spirit, of that which is invisible. (Rom.1:20) Thereforethe spirit world is not so terribly different from this present existence that we can't even comprehend or understand it.Otherwise, when we got ushered into it, we would be completely lost!--It would be just too far out, too totally different, wecouldn't even relate!Some people are going to be surprised to find out that things haven't changed all that much! -- We are going to bemuch the same as we are now, except that we're going to have supernatural bodies. We will look like we do now, just asJesus did after His resurrection.--You're going to have a lot of the same characteristics.-- It's still going to be
you
.--Butyou'll be better off and in more direct communication and obey better because you'll be under more direct control. "To beabsent from the body is to be present with the Lord!" (2Cor.5:8) You'll be like in the presence of the Lord all the time!Are you ready to go? Are you working for Jesus?--Are you under God's control now? If so, the spirit world will not be too strange for you, and the transition from this life to the next will not be too great a change. You'll still be God's child,in His care, and accustomed to doing His will.--And you'll
enjoy
it, as now!622:32620:2,3629:59 -- 620:4 -- 680:71 -- 622:49,50628:56,57 -- 622:51
August 8This is the most wonderful life in the world!--I love it!
We have found the Truth and a happy new life in Jesus and the living waters of His Word and the fellowship of Hischildren on the bright sunny mountaintop of the Kingdom of God!--It's like Heaven on earth!--Our lives overflow with joy,and our satisfaction knows no bounds, and our happiness knows no equal.--We have everything we've always wanted,including forgiveness of sins, faith in God, love in Christ, something to really live and work for, peace of mind, health of  body, and joy and happiness and love and laughter forever after!We are already enjoying a foretaste of Heaven on Earth!--This is like a little bit of Heaven on Earth, this sweetfellowship we have in love one for another right here.--We are living the way people are going to live in love and sharingand sweetness and light and joy and praise and song and worship in the Millennium!--
Right now
we've got the same love,the same fellowship, the same sweetness in spirit and joy and blessing.So thank God for the freedom He's given us and the unity He's given us and the joy He's given us and thehappiness to enjoy life to the full!--Every day with Jesus is better than the day before! Hallelujah! Thank You, Jesus!
He'swonderful!
58:25360:54 -- 524:41 -- 526:8 -- 529:49148:35 -- 399:61 -- 148:35 -- 399:131631:20 -- 58:32
August 9When you start to decide to serve God, all Hell breaks loose!
If the Devil can just scare you out before you begin, then you'll never even get started and you'll never accomplish whatGod wants you to do.--So the Devil pulls out all of his big guns and his big-wigs and everything in his bag of tricks to try tokeep you from
starting
to serve God!--Because if he can just keep you from starting, he figures you'll never serve God!It's the
witness
the Devil fears!--Every one that is won is a threat to hundreds of others of his, so he's out to stopeach one the best he can. He knows he's going to lose others from his clutches because of you!In the testing time before the beginning of His ministry, even Jesus was carried out into the desert and tempted bythe Devil himself!--Imagine! The Devil was allowed to carry His physical body around and really test Him, attack Him!(Mt.4:1-11) But under the attack He never yielded but resisted the Enemy with the Word of God and refused to yield, untilthe Enemy saw Jesus wasn't going to give up, and then he quit.--So for God's sake and the sake of others and your ownsake, don't let the Devil frighten you or bluff you out of what the Lord wants you to do before you even get started!--"Resistthe Enemy and he'll flee from you!" (Jam.4:7)739:531:43 -- 739:53717:10 -- 551:16,15717:6,5 -- 1:43 -- 551:38
