QUOTE SMITH WIGGLESWORTH: TO
TESTIFY LIFTS OUR HEAVY FLESH

"Liberty has many aspects to it,
but no liberty is going to help people as much as
testimony. I find people who don't know how to testify
properly. We must testify only as the Spirit gives
utterance. We find in the book of Revelation that "the
testimony of Jesus is the spirit of prophesy." (Rev
19:10)
"Sometimes our flesh keeps us down,
but our hearts are so full that they lit us up. Have you
ever been like that? The flesh is fastening you to your
seat, but your heart is bubbling over. At last the
heart has more power, and you stand up. Then in that
heart affection for Jesus, in the Spirit of love and in
the knowledge of truth, you begin to testify, and when
you are done, you sit down..."
Rev
19:10 NKJV
And I
fell at his feet to worship him. But he said to me, "See
that you do not do that! I am your fellow servant, and
of your brethren who have the testimony of Jesus.
Worship God! For the testimony of Jesus is the spirit of
prophecy."
Ps
66:16-20 NKJV
Come
and hear, all you who fear God, And I will declare what
He has done for my soul. I cried to Him with my mouth,
And He was extolled with my tongue. If I regard
iniquity in my heart, The Lord will not hear. But
certainly God has heard me;He has attended to the voice
of my prayer. Blessed be God, Who has not turned away
my prayer, Nor His mercy from me! |
