Be Zealous

Be zealous.
Revelation 3:19

"IF you would see souls converted,..then be filled with zeal.

For, under God, the way of the world's conversion must be by the zeal of the church. Every grace shall do exploits, but this shall be first; prudence, knowledge, patience, and courage will follow in their places, but zeal must lead the van.

*It is not the extent of your knowledge,
though that is useful;
*it is not the extent of your talent,
 though that is not to be despised;
it is your zeal that shall do great exploits.

This zeal is the fruit of the Holy Spirit: it draws its vital force from the continued operations of the Holy Ghost in the soul.


If our inner life dwindles, if our heart beats slowly before God, we shall not know zeal; but if all be strong and vigorous within, then we cannot but feel a loving anxiety to see the kingdom of Christ come, and His will done on earth, even as it is in heaven.

And zeal is also stimulated by the thought of the eternal future. 
 It feels that time is short compared with the work to be done, and therefore it devotes all that it has to the cause of its Lord. Let us prove that we are His disciples by manifesting the same spirit of zeal."
Charles Spurgeon
