Episode 61: The Family Altar Audio Devotional – Day 27

Episode Summary:

And Jesus called a little child unto him, and set him in the midst of them, And said, Verily I say unto you, Except ye be converted, and become as little children, ye shall not enter into the kingdom of heaven. Whosoever therefore shall humble himself as this little child, the same is greatest in the kingdom of heaven. And whoso shall receive one such little child in my name receiveth me. But whoso shall offend one of these little ones which believe in me, it were better for him that a millstone were hanged about his neck, and that he were drowned in the depth of the sea. (Matthew 18:2-6)

49 I used to work on the railroad out here with Harry Waterberry, and we would go down to load a car. My brother, Doc, standing back there, helps loads cars. When a car is being loaded, they go through that car, the inspector, and if he finds anything loose, where it would fall and break, or anything that would destroy; he’ll not seal that car until that car is so completely packed, until it’s so packed down and so in order, that the shaking of the ride won’t bother the product that’s on the inside.

50 That’s what’s the matter we don’t get sealed so much; we’re too loose about things. When the Inspector goes through, to inspect your life, to see if you’re not just a little loose about things, little loose about your prayer life, little loose about that temper, little loose about that tongue, to talk about others, He’ll never seal the car. Some dirty habits, some vile things, some vulgarity mind, He can’t seal the car.

But when He’s found everything in its place, the Inspector, then He seals it. Dare be anybody open that seal until that car has reached its destination to where it’s sealed for! There it is. “Touch not My anointed; do My prophets no harm. For I say unto you, it’d be better for you that a millstone was hanged at your neck, and you were drowned in the depths of the sea, than even to try to offend or shake a little on the least of these that’s been sealed.” You see what it means?

51 That’s what the Holy Spirit is. It’s your assurance. It’s your protection. It’s your witness. It’s your seal. It’s your sign, that, “I’m Heaven bound. Don’t care what the devil says! I’m Heaven bound. Why? He sealed me. He gave It to me. He sealed me into His Kingdom, and I’m Glory-bound! Let the winds blow, let Satan do what he wants to. God has done sealed me till the day of my redemption.” Amen! That’s what the Holy Ghost is. Oh, you should want It. I couldn’t go on without It. So much could be said there, but I’m sure you know what I’m speaking of.
