The question often arises how it is, with so much church-going, Bible-reading, and prayer, that the Christian fails to live the life of complete victory over sin and lacks the love and joy of the Lord.
One of the most important answers, undoubtedly, is that he does not know what it is to die to himself and to the world. Yet without this, God's love and holiness cannot have their dwelling-place in his heart.
He has repented of some sins, but knows not what it is to turn, not only from sin, but from his old nature and self-will.
The great work of the Holy Spirit is to reveal Christ in our hearts and lives as the Crucified One who dwells within us.
Let this be the chief aim of all your devotion: complete dependence on God, and an expectation of continually receiving all goodness and salvation from Him alone.
Thus will you learn to die to yourself and to the world, and be kept through the continual working of the Holy Spirit.
