True spiritual life depends not on probing our feelings and thoughts from dawn to dusk but on 'looking off' to the Savior!
Watchman NeeAnd it is through conflict that God induces the believer to seek and to grasp total triumph in Christ.
Watchman NeeIf you would test the character of anything, you only need to enquire whether that thing leads you to God or away from God.
Watchman NeePut very simply, Satan's power in the world is everywhere. Yet wherever men and women walk in the Spirit, sensitive to the anointing they have from God, that power of his just evaporates. There is a line drawn by God, a boundary where by virtue of his own very presence Satan's writ does not run. Let God but occupy all the space himself, and what room is left for the evil one?
