Andrew Murray on The New Life: Words of God for Young Disciples Text
the LORD God of Israel, There is an accursed thing in the midst of thee, O Israel: thou canst
not stand before thine enemies, until ye take away the accursed thing from among you.
Isa 58:10 And if thou draw out thy soul to the hungry, and satisfy the afflicted soul; then shall
thy light rise in obscurity, and thy darkness be as the noonday:
Isa 59:1 Behold, the LORD'S hand is not shortened, that it cannot save; neither his ear heavy,
that it cannot hear:
Isa 59:2 But your iniquities have separated between you and your God, and your sins have hid
his face from you, that he will not hear.
Isa 59:9 Therefore is judgment far from us, neither doth justice overtake us: we wait for light,
but behold obscurity; for brightness, but we walk in darkness.
Mt 15:14 Let them alone: they be blind leaders of the blind. And if the blind lead the blind, both
shall fall into the ditch.
Mt 15:15 Then answered Peter and said unto him, Declare unto us this parable.
2Co 6:14 Be ye not unequally yoked together with unbelievers: for what fellowship hath
righteousness with unrighteousness? and what communion hath light with darkness?
Eph 5:8 For ye were sometimes darkness, but now are ye light in the Lord: walk as children of
light:
Eph 5:14 Wherefore he saith, Awake thou that sleepest, and arise from the dead, and Christ
shall give thee light.
1Th 5:5 Ye are all the children of light, and the children of the day: we are not of the night, nor
of darkness.
1Jo 2:10 He that loveth his brother abideth in the light, and there is none occasion of stumbling
in him.
Or it is unbelief that makes dark. We look to ourselves and our strength; we would seek comfort in
our own feeling, or our own works, and all becomes dark. As soon as we look to Jesus, to the fulness,
to the perfect provision for our needs that is in Him, all is light. He says, 'I am the Light: he that
followeth me shall not walk in darkness, but shall have the light of life.' So long as I believe, I have
light and gladness. (John 12:36; 11:40; Rom. 15:13; 1 Pet. 1:8)
Joh 12:36 While ye have light, believe in the light, that ye may be the children of light. These
things spake Jesus, and departed, and did hide himself from them.
Joh 11:40 Jesus saith unto her, Said I not unto thee, that, if thou wouldest believe, thou
shouldest see the glory of God?
Ro 15:13 Now the God of hope fill you with all joy and peace in believing, that ye may abound
in hope, through the power of the Holy Ghost.
