When Deep Calls Unto Deep, Part V – Testifying Without Exhibiting

When Deep Calls Unto Deep, Part V – Testifying Without Exhibiting

From The Collected Works of Watchman Nee, Volume 37 Should we bear testimony? Yes, but with care and purpose. Paul and many believers have testified, but there is a difference between sharing for others’ benefit and delighting in talking about oneself. Our goal should be to help others, not to enjoy hearing our own voice or to turn testimony into casual conversation. When the Lord leads, we should testify to help, not to boast. Paul, for example, hid his extraordinary…

When Deep Calls Unto Deep, Part IV – Superficial Living

From The Collected Works of Watchman Nee, Volume 37 In Isaiah 39, when news of Hezekiah’s sickness and recovery reached the Babylonian court, messengers were sent with letters and a present for Hezekiah. Hezekiah had received the grace of God, but he could not stand the test of grace. God’s Word says, “And Hezekiah was glad for them and showed them his treasury, the silver and the gold, and the spices and the precious oil, and his whole armory and…

When Deep Calls Unto Deep, Part III – Deep Experiences

Paul told the Corinthians, “To boast is necessary, though indeed not expedient.” He admitted that sharing his spiritual experiences was not profitable for him, but he did so for the sake of others. Paul only spoke of “visions and revelations of the Lord” because some doubted his apostleship and there were foundational issues in the church. Our attitude should be the same: not seeking attention for spiritual experiences, but sharing only when truly necessary. Paul did not share all his…

When Deep Calls Unto Deep

When Deep Calls Unto Deep, Part I From The Collected Works of Watchman Nee, Volume 37 Psalm 42:7 says, “Deep calls unto deep.” Only a call from the depths can provoke a response from the depths. Nothing shallow can ever touch the depths, nor can anything superficial touch the inward parts. Only the deep will respond to the deep. Anything that does not issue from the depths cannot touch the depths. Others can respond deep within to only what issues…

Handy Man

Handy Man

Why is it so difficult for someone to take my advice? If I know the truth, then why don’t they hear? I desire to help them so their life can be fixed. And how do I know the appropriate things to say to them? Giving advice is all based on one’s own private experiences. Even the Spiritual Journey may differ because of individual belief systems and internal thoughts and prejudices. That is what drives behavior. God has already determined who…

What Can I Say?

What Can I Say?

I had a dream about two woman I know well who came to visit me. They were familiar with my home and walked in without ringing the doorbell, which still surprised me. After we exchanged pleasantries, they began telling me what I needed to do with various situations in my life. They were shaming me about certain circumstances that I was facing. They strongly advised me about what to do regarding several people in my life. They also got angry…

Ignorance

Ignorance

Spiritual ignorance is prevalent in today’s world. We have so much information readily available at our fingertips, yet most people do not seek God for wisdom—for anything, including the truth. Many sit at the gateway lost and confused, rather than to boldly confront the spiritual ignorance that prevents asking for guidance and direction. This is easily identifiable by the words people speak. In the last two weeks, I have had been part of conversations where people say, “we’re only human”,…
