August 31: Delight and Goodwill.
A New Heart and a New Spirit.
"Cast away from you all the transgressions which you have committed, and get yourselves a new heart and a new spirit. For why should you die, O house of Israel? For I have no pleasure in the death of one who dies,: says the Lord God. "Therefore turn and live!"--Ezekiel 18:31, 32, NKJV
EVERY TRUE TURNING to the Lord brings abiding joy into the life.--Prophet and Kings, 668.
Many have a twilight perception of Christ's excellence, and their hearts thrill with joy. They long for a fuller, deeper sense of the Saviour's love. Let these cherish every desire of the soul after God. The Holy Spirit works with those who will be worked, molds those who will be molded, fashion those who will be fashioned. Give yourselves the culture of spiritual thoughts and holy communings. You have seen but the first rays of the early dawn of His glory. As you follow on to know the Lord, you will know that "the path of the righteous is as the light dawn, that shineth more and more unto the perfect day." Proverbs 4:18, R.V., margin.--The Ministry of Healing, 503.
In Christ is fullness of joy forevermore.--Testimonies to Ministers and Gospel Workers, 390.
If we know God, and Jesus Christ whom He has sent, unspeakable gladness will come to the soul.--Testimonies to Ministers and Gospel Workers, 169.
Yet in all these things we are more than conquerors through Him who loved us.
For I am persuaded that neither death nor life, nor angels nor principalities nor powers,
nor things present nor things to come, nor height nor depth, nor any other created thing,
shall be able to separate us from the love of God which is in Christ Jesus our Lord.
--Romans 8:37-39, NKJV
"And this is eternal life, that they may know You,
the only true God, and Jesus Christ whom You have sent."
--John 17:3, NKJV
