Finding Hope in Suffering With Amy Carmichael

DAN 2 OD 7

A pure work

Don’t be surprised if there is attack on your work, on you who are called to do it, on your innermost nature—the hidden man of the heart. It must be so. The great thing is not to be surprised, not to count it strange—for that plays into the hand of the enemy.

Is it possible that anyone should set themselves to exalt our beloved Lord and not become instantly a target for many arrows? The very fact that your work depends utterly on Him and can’t be done for a moment without Him calls for a very close walk and a constant communion of spirit. This alone is enough to account for anything the enemy can do.

But there are limits set. Greater is He. I have just read that glorious word in Romans 5:17, “They that receive the abundance of grace . . . reign in life, through the One, even Jesus Christ.” And this was written to slaves in Nero’s wicked palace. What daring of faith the Spirit gave to Paul.

It costs to have a pure work. Not for nothing is our God called a Consuming Fire.
