Intercession for the universities and public schools, for many friends, for M.V.G.H., and E.C. THURSDAY "Goodness." For much fruit to His praise. Soul-winning. Spirit of praise. Forgive us our trespasses. Local work. Swansea and Mrs. Morgan. For my sister Ellen, all at Winterdyne, "and the servants." FRIDAY "Faith." Wisdom to be shown more of His will and commands. Lead us not into temptation.
The first two children received into No. 1 both became true believers and zealous workers: one, a Congregational deacon, who, in a benighted neighbourhood, acted the part of a lay preacher; and the other, a laborious and successful clergyman in the Church of England, and both largely used of God in soul-winning.
Hatred of sin is love shrinking from that which separates from its lover. Sympathy is love tenderly feeling. Enthusiasm is love burning. Hope is love expecting. Patience is love waiting. Faithfulness is love sticking fast. Humility is love taking its true place. Modesty is love keeping out of sight. Soul-winning is love pleading. Love is revolutionary.
A heart ready to melt at the sight of human suffering and human need is necessary to successful soul-winning.
Scripture for Meditation: Heb. iv, 12; 2 Tim. iii, 13-17; Ps. cxix, 1-11. A thorough knowledge of the Word of God is essential to success in soul-winning. The Word is "the sword of the Spirit," "the hammer that breaketh the rock in pieces." If we are not skilled in the use of the Divine sword and the Divine hammer, then we can not expect that the Spirit will use us.
Scripture for Meditation: 1 Cor. ii. No more fruitful and important field for personal work can be found than in our educational institutions, and Christian students who make soul-winning a habit of life may win many rich trophies for the Master.
