Devotional For

June 3

      "Ye shall receive the power of the Holy Ghost" (Acts i. 8).
      
      There is power for us if we have the Holy Ghost. God wants us to speak to men so that they will feel it, so that they will never forget it.
      
      God means every Christian to be effective, to count in the actual records and results of Christian work. Dear friends, God sent you here to be a power yourself.
      
      There is not one of you but is an essential wheel of the machinery, and can accomplish all that God calls you to. I solemnly believe that there is not a thing that God expects of man but that God will give the man power to do. There is not a claim God makes on you or me but God will stand up to, and will give what He commands.
      
      I believe when Christ Jesus lived and died and sent down the Holy Ghost, He sent resources for all our need, and that there is no place for failure in Christian life if we will take God's resources. Jesus, the ascended One, and the Holy Ghost, the indwelling energy, life and efficiency of God, are sufficient for all possible emergencies.
      
      Do you believe this? If you believe it, let Him into your heart, without reserve and allow Him to control and work through you to-day by His power.
