The Holiest of All By Andrew Murray

children to be a messenger of mercy to the perishing,
assures us that He will abundantly use everyone
and that
that trusts
Him. By faith Noah prepared an ark to the saving of his
house : does not this give
faith a new attractiveness and value.
By the prayer of faith and the labour of faith, by the death to
self in Christ, and by the walk in the presence of God, our
hearts can be filled with a love and a power
that cannot be
fruitless. The Holy Spirit that came from our beloved Priest-
King on the throne in the Holiest, as a witness to God s pleasure
in us, and to the indwelling of our Lord, came specially as an
enduement of power, to make us in our turn witnesses for Him.
Oh all
ye who, by faith, have entered into the Holiest and its
blessings, go forth and work the work of faith ;
by faith bring in
those who are still without. This is the faith that makes you
an heir of the righteousness which is
according to faith.
1. Abel, Enoch, Noah: all types of Jesus. Abel: the righteous one, hated and slain by his
brethren, coming to Qod with sacrifice. Enoch : the beloved son, in whom God is well pleased,
walking with Him on earth, and taken up into heaven. Noah :
preparing salvation, saving His
people, condemning the world.
2. The one thing God gives me is, Jesus the dying One, the living One, the redeeming One. The
one thing He asks of me is faith. Faith will make me like Him. Beginning with the Abel-blessing
drawing nigh to Qod through death, I come to the Enoch-blessing, the life of unbroken fellowship.
And so I learn the secret of the Noah-blessing, and become a saviour of others. And all, By
faith.
