MY UTMOST FOR HIS HIGHEST – Oswald Chambers ENTITLED: The Key to the Missionary’s Devotion 7 For these [traveling missionaries] have gone out for the Name’s sake (for His sake) and are accepting nothing from the Gentiles (the heathen, the non-Israelites). ~ III JOHN 1:7 (AMP) ~ “The duty of a faithful missionary [Believer of Christ] is to concentrate on keeping his soul completely and continually open to the nature of the Lord Jesus Christ. The men and women our Lord sends out on His endeavors are ordinary human people, but people who are controlled by their devotion to Him, which has been brought about through the work of the Holy Spirit.” – Chambers I do not have any good thing in me that can influence another for Jesus Christ, except for Himself in me. In essence, this is what Paul refers to in Romans 7:18. This being true, it behooves me to concentrate first-and-foremost upon my COMMUNION with Him. From this, will come all things necessary, to compassionately and effectively influence others for Christ. Why do we reverse, though, God’s better processes?
