[Songs in the Night - August 20]
He hath sent me to bind up the brokenhearted. Isaiah 61:1
THE anointed ones are not to spend their time endeavoring
to break the hard hearts of the worldly, for
this is not a part of their commission....The message
is to "bind up the brokenhearted."
How much
there is of this very kind of work that needs doing!
The poor in spirit, contrite and mellowed of heart,
disappointed with the world, vexed with the flesh and
the Adversary, are to be found in nearly every quarter
of the world; and whosoever has received the anointing
of the Holy Spirit should realize that this power upon him is given to be exercised upon this needy classpouring in the oil and the wine of the divine promises,
to cheer and comfort and bless, and prepare for joint-
heirship in the kingdom some of the very class whom
the Lord will be pleased to accept. Z'00-55 R2580:2 (Hymn 73)
