I have read so many
books in my life. But I felt the presence of Holy Spirit strongly only in
certain books. This is a kind of book in which God taught me so many truths
even when I started studying the preface section.
This book is about
“The way of Christian Service.” It has straight forward truths about serving
the Lord and distinguishing Lord’s work from the devil’s work.
“Let me say that the success
of a work does not necessarily make it God’s work. A work may appear very
successful and yet not be God’s. The apparent lack of success, on the other
hand, does not eliminate a work from being God’s work. Judged by the number of
those who heard Him and continued to be faithful to Him, the work of the Lord
Jesus was a failure, yet it was very work of God.”
This book also
leads you to know the necessity of the hour you are living in. Even though the
author has written this book in the year close to the beginning of 1980s, still
God speaks through this book.
“God calls people to
impossible tasks. He calls people to that which they will never do on their
own. He does this so that when the task is accomplished, it will be obvious
that He did it all. The God who is I AM is available for the needs of all His
servants. If their need is power, He says, “I am your Power,” and becomes their
power. If they are lonely, He says, “I am your friend.” If they are weary, He
says, “I am your Comforter.” If there are great obstacles, He says, “I am the
One who takes away all obstacles.” He is everything that His servants need.”
The author explains
the deepest Spiritual secrets with a simple real life example to understand. The
author takes you through the steps in which you begin to understand the heart
of the Almighty God.
“It is time for one thing and
one thing only. It is time to love Jesus supremely and time to take up your
cross and follow Him and, like Him, be crucified to self, the world and all
else. It is time to take the Gospel to the ends of the world and to preach it powerfully
and Biblically; so that it will cause you your life and your all.”
If you are out
there having a great desire to serve God and to do His work diligently, this is
the book you have to definitely read.
“Too many believers today are
doing nothing for the Lord. They are shy and withdrawn and lack boldness and a
clear sense of direction. Where are those who would dare to step out at His
command and take entire villages, towns, provinces, nations and continents for
Him? Where are those who would seek great things for Him?”
Are you ready to
serve the Lord diligently? This is the time given to you, my dear young friend.
Learn to do God’s work according to His will and not on your own will. If you
want to do God’s work sincerely, surrender your life to God and He will use you
for His glory.
To me, this book is
a basic guide which has several truths revealed by Holy Spirit for those who
want to serve God according to His will and His direction. I strongly recommend this book for those who
are called to be God’s servants.
