Unbroken Fellowship Is Essential
"If you abide in Me, and My words abide in you, you will ask what you desire, and it shall be done for you."
~ John 15:7
"To abide in Jesus is never to quit Him for another love, but to remain in living, loving, conscious union with Him. the branch is not only ever near the stem, but ever receiving life and fruitfulness from it.
"Ask what you desire" is for Enochs who walk with God, for Johns who lie in the Lord's bosom, for those whose union with Christ leads to constant communion.
The heart must remain in love, the mind must be re rooted in faith, the hope must be cemented to the Word, the whole man must be joined unto the very life is, "Not I, but Christ lives in me." You who break your fellowship, what power you lose! If you would be mighty in your pleadings, the Lord Himself must abide in you, and you in Him." (By: Charles H. Spurgeon ~ One Minute Devotions)
