HAVE YOU SEEN HIS STAR?
HAVE YOU SEEN HIS STAR?
Seek God Now One day Mr. (D.
L.) Moody asked me to go out riding and after we had ridden a little way he drove into a cornfield, went out to the middle of the lot, and then he said, "This is where it happened."
I said, "This is where what happened?"
"Don't you remember the last time I was in Chicago that I told you a certain story, and you said the next time you came to North-field you wanted me to show you just where it happened?"
He said, "This is where it happened."
What was the story?
When Mr. Moody was a mere lad, one day he was hoeing corn—maize, as you call it—across a field with an elderly man.
Suddenly the man who was hoeing stopped hoeing, and commenced hitting a stone with the hoe.
Mr. Moody looked at him.
The tears were rolling down his cheeks, and he said, "Dwight, when I was a lad like you, I left home to make a living for myself."
His house was up on the hill.
Mr. Moody pointed to the house as he spoke.
"As I came out of the front gate yonder my mother handed me a Testament and said, 'My boy, "Seek first the kingdom of God and His righteousness, and all these things shall be added unto you.'"
"He said, "I went to the next town.
I went to church on the Sabbath.
The minister got up to preach.
He announced his text, , looked right down at me, and pointed his finger at me and said, 'Young man, "Seek first the kingdom of God and His righteousness, and all these things shall be added unto you."'"
He said, "I went out of the church.
I had an awful struggle!
It seemed as if the minister were talking at me.
I said, 'No, I will get fixed in life first, and then I will become a Christian.'"
He said, "I found no work there.
I went to another town.
I found employment.
I went to church, as was my custom, Sunday after Sunday.
"After I had been going some Sundays the minister stood up in the pulpit, announced his text, , 'Seek ye first the kingdom of God and his righteousness, and all these things shall be added unto you.'
And he said, Dwight, he seemed to look right at me and point his finger right at me, and said, 'Young man, "Seek ye first the kingdom of God and His righteousness, and all these things shall be added unto you."'
He said, "I got up and went out of the church.
I went to the cemetery back of the church.
I sat down upon a tombstone.
I had an awful fight, but at last I said, 'No, I will not become a Christian 'till I get settled in life.'"
He said, "Dwight, from that day to this the Spirit of God has left me, and I have never had the slightest inclination to be a Christian."
Mr. Moody said, "I did not understand it then.
I was not a Christian myself.
I went to Boston and was converted.
Then I understood it.
I wrote to my mother and asked her what had become of him, and she wrote me: 'Dwight, he has gone insane, and they have taken him to the Brattleboro Insane Asylum.' "I went home to Brattleboro, and called on him there.
He was in his cell, and as I went into his cell he glared at me, pointed his finger at me, and said, 'Young man, "Seek ye first the kingdom of God and His righteousness,"' and I could do nothing with him.
"I went back to Boston.
After some time I came home again.
I said to my mother, 'Where is Mr. __________ now?' 'Oh!' she said, 'he is home, but he is a helpless imbecile.'
I went up to his house.
There he sat rocking back and forth in a rocking chair, a white-haired man; and as I went into the room he pointed his finger at me and said, 'Young man, "Seek first the kingdom of God and His righteousness."'
Gone crazy with memory.
Hell is the madhouse of the universe, where men and women remember.
—R. A. Torrey,
Worldwide Evangelist of the nineteenth and twentieth centuries and former associate of D. L. Moody
When We See His Star We Are Filled with Joy
When We See His Star We Are Filled with Joy
God did not give us a sad gospel
I was sad when I lived in sin.
Some people have lost their joy.
Where the Spirit of the Lord is there is liberty.
psalms
I enjoy my salvation everyday and am thank for what Jesus has done to get me thus far.
I lack of the word of God in our life with remove what joy you ever recieved at salvation.
The joy of the Lord is my strength.
