POSSESSING A SINGLE EYE TO HIS GLORY

[Albert Finch]

As soon as Paul saw the light from heaven above the brightness of the sun, he said, "Lord what wilt thou have me to do?" - Acts 19:6

And as soon as he was willing to YIELD he was in a condition where God could meet his need; where God could display His power; where God could have the man.
The place of yeildedness is just where God wants us.
When you begin yeilding and yielding to God He has a play for your life, and you come in to that wonderful place where all you have to do is to eat the fruits of Canaan.

It is God's CALLING on one's life that counts. Paul was in the call of God. Paul's choice was to be a bondservant for Jesus Christ.
"I will show him how great things he must suffer for my name's sake." - Acts 19:6. Paul saw that these things were working out a far more exceeding weight of glory.

QUESTIONS TO ASK MYSELF
Am I willing that God shall have His way today?
Am I willing to follow Him -- will I obey Him?
Am I willing to take the place of Paul, and yield and yield and yield, until God so possesses me in such a way that from my body virtue shall flow to the sick and suffering?

God wants to charge our faith today. He wants us to see it is not obtained by struggling and working and pining. "...the Father himself loveth you..." (John 16:27) "..Himself took our infirmities, and bare our sicknesses" (Matthew 8:17). "Come unto me, all ye that labor and are heavey laden, and I will give you rest" (Matthew 11:18).

May we lay hold of this living faith today -- the Blood has never lost its power -- as we get nearer and nearer to Jesus wonderful things will take place. The baptism of Jesus must bring us to have a single eye to the glory of God; everything else is wasted time and wasted energy.

The Holy Spirit wants us for the purpose of manifesting Jesus through us. The Holy Spirit moving upon us will make us to be like Him, and we will truly say, "Lord, what wilt thou have me to do?"
