“At thy right hand there are pleasures for evermore” (Psalm 16:11).
God will not rest till He has received from us that for which He has been waiting from eternity.
The mighty and Holy God offers to you His own righteousness in which there is no flaw or
fault. God wants to present us spotless in His own presence before the angels of heaven. The
righteousness of God in you is of such a nature that if you possess it, even the angels cannot
point a finger at you in condemnation. Have you received such a righteousness or are you
still trusting in something else?
“But put ye on the Lord Jesus Christ, and make not provision for the flesh, to fulfill the lusts
thereof” (Rom. 13:14). “And thou shalt be called by a new name, which the mouth of the
Lord shall name” (Isa. 62:2).
God seeks a dwelling place in us – a rest such as He cannot get even from Heaven without
us. He is gathering out of this earth a church, a company of chosen people to give Him
pleasure and rest and satisfaction. It is this joy which is your strength, and it is this joy and
great love which we offer you in the in the Name of the Lord Jesus Christ.
