The Secret of Fellowship by Andrew Murray
Part of his classic Secret Series devotionals, Andrew Murray wrote this month-long devotional to emphasize the necessity of daily fellowship with God. He teaches in The Secret of Fellowship that without taking this daily time to come into His presence, feel your weakness and need, and wait upon the Lord, you cannot fully experience the joy and power of God's Holy Spirit in your daily life. Written over a period of five years, The Secret Series books contain a wealth of teaching that is based on Andrew Murray's mature and full experience in Christ. Briefly yet eloquently, Murray teaches that our lives and faith are strengthened when we persistently pursue God. The Secret of Fellowship contains one month of daily selections that emphasize the necessity of daily fellowship with God for a life full of the joy and power of the Holy Spirit.

" Praying at all seasons in the Spirit ...<br />
in all perseverance and supplication for<br />
all the saints."-EPH. vi. r8.<br />
W<br />
HAT an unspeakable blessing there<br />
is in intercession. That one<br />
should pray down heavenly gifts on<br />
himself is a wonder <strong>of</strong> grace, but that he<br />
should bring down blessings on others<br />
is indeed an inconceivable honour. Will<br />
God indeed make the pouring out <strong>of</strong><br />
blessing on others, dependent on our<br />
prayers? Yes, He makes us His remembrancers<br />
and fellow-workers. He<br />
has taken us into partnership in His<br />
work ; if we fail in doing our part,<br />
others will suffer, and His work will<br />
suffer unspeakable loss.<br />
God has appointed intercession as one<br />
<strong>of</strong> the means <strong>by</strong> which souls shall be<br />
saved, and saints and ministers <strong>of</strong> the<br />
Gospel edified and built up in the faith.<br />
Even the ends <strong>of</strong> the earth will receive<br />
life and blessing through our prayers.<br />
Should we not expect God's children to<br />
strive joyfully and with all their powers,<br />
<strong>by</strong> means <strong>of</strong> intercession, to bring down<br />
blessing on the world ?<br />
Christian,. begin to use intercession<br />
as a means <strong>of</strong> grace for yourself and<br />
for others. Pray for your neighbours.<br />
Pray for souls with the definite desire<br />
