Envy Is A Spirit Of Dissatisfaction Or Opposition To The Prosperity Or Happiness Of Other People.

Holiness Appeared To Me To Be Of A Sweet, Pleasant, Charming, Serene, Calm Nature; Which Brought An Inexpressible Purity, Brightness, Peacefulness And Ravishment To The Soul.

It Is God’s Will Through His Wonderful Grace, That The Prayers Of His Saints Should Be One Of The Great Principal Means Of Carrying On The Designs Of Christ’s Kingdom In The World. When God Has Something Very Great To Accomplish For His Church, It Is His Will That There Should Precede It The Extraordinary Prayers Of His People; As Is Manifest By Ezekiel 36:37. And It Is Revealed That, When God Is About To Accomplish Great Things For His Church, He Will Begin By Remarkably Pouring Out The Spirit Of Grace And Supplication (see Zechariah 12:10).

Remember That Pride Is The Worst Viper That Is In The Heart, The Greatest Disturber Of The Soul's Peace And Sweet Communion With Christ; It Was The First Sin That Ever Was, And Lies Lowest In The Foundation Of Satan's Whole Building, And Is The Most Difficultly Rooted Out, And Is The Most Hidden, Secret And Deceitful Of All Lusts, And Often Creeps In, Insensibly, Into The Midst Of Religion And Sometimes Under The Disguise Of Humility.
