Getting in on the Gospel action begins with a simple prayer, perhaps something like this …. LORD, please prepare and use me for Your glory. In Jesus’ Name, amen.

The man called out to serve the LORD must go through seasons of rigorous purgings, strippings, and persecution. This is seen in the lives of many of the patriarchs, prophets, and apostles.

“If a man therefore purge himself from these, he shall be a vessel unto honour, sanctified, and meet for the master’s use, and prepared unto every good work.” 2 Timothy 2:21

There’s no such thing as a “vessel unto honour” who is “meet (fit) for the master’s use” who is not a man purging himself from the things that displease God – laying “aside every weight, and the sin which doth so easily beset” and running “with patience the race that is set before” him (2 Timothy 2:21; Hebrews 12:1-3).

“I love what A.W.Tozer said, “It is doubtful whether God can bless a man greatly until He has hurt him deeply.” In our pain we see our deep need for Him and surrender all of our control. We become poor in spirit. And are willing to give up all of ourselves to be crucified. Put in the refiner’s fire so we can be purged, purified, and cleansed. To become pure gold. Vessels of honour suitable to be used by our Master.” Karen Cochran

“It has been said that no great work in literature or in science was ever wrought by a man who did not love solitude. We may lay it down as an elemental principle of religion, that no large growth in holiness was ever gained by one who did not take time to be often long alone with God.” Austin Phelps

ALL who desire God to use them, for God’s Word and Holy Spirit to flow through them, are living a crucified life and filling up daily with His Word (Proverbs 22:17-21; 2 Timothy 2:15; 1 Peter 4:11). Are you being prepared to be mightily used of God? See Daniel 11:32.  Anyone who says they want to be used of God and yet is not deeply, diligently, daily devouring and obeying God’s Word, is a liar.

“The pressure in your life right now has a purpose. It’s not crushing you, it’s pushing what’s on the inside of you out. It shows you who you are.” unknown

The LORD Lift Up His Countenance Upon Thee, and Give Thee Peace [podcast]


“For we ourselves also were sometimes foolish, disobedient, deceived, serving divers lusts and pleasures, living in malice and envy, hateful, and hating one another. 4 But after that the kindness and love of God our Saviour toward man appeared, 5 Not by works of righteousness which we have done, but according to his mercy he saved us, by the washing of regeneration, and renewing of the Holy Ghost; 6 Which he shed on us abundantly through Jesus Christ our Saviour; 7 That being justified by his grace, we should be made heirs according to the hope of eternal life.” Titus 3:3-7 

“The LORD bless thee, and keep thee: 25 The LORD make his face shine upon thee, and be gracious unto thee: 26 The LORD lift up his countenance upon thee, and give thee peace. ” Numbers 6:24-26
