Holy wrestling'


Back to Man's religion & God's religion 5


Wherever the Lord brings trials upon the soul, 
He pours out upon it the spirit of grace and 
supplication. 

If the child of God has a burden;
if he is labouring under a strong temptation;
if his soul is passing through some pressing trial;
he is not satisfied with merely going through a 
'form of prayer'. There is at such times and
seasons, a holy wrestling . . .
there are fervent desires; 
there are unceasing groans; 
there is a labouring to enter into rest; 
there is a struggling after deliverance;  
there is a crying unto the Lord—until He 
appears and manifests Himself in the soul.
