Take Heat to the Word of God

By Dorothy Jackson

To Inspire Young People

There are many types of powers, but there is no power like God's power. Whatever you do or have in mind to do, let the Holy Spirit lead you. He will lead you and show you the light.

Young people do not have to succumb to the pressures of the times, like getting "high," because God will take you higher than any man has ever gone or will ever go. He will even make you love your enemies.

So when your friends turn their backs on you, He (God) is always there. Sometimes, we have to suffer a bit for our faith, where it seems like everyone is against us. But if you will have faith in God, He will always come to your rescue. God sent His only Son to die for our sins so that we could be made whole.

Not half has been told about what God has done for us. God is still the same although times change. He is still the same God. Yet man says, "God is dead." I know He is alive in me as a witness.

To all young people, there is only one power, and that is God's power. Take hold of His salvation!

As you have finished reading these few memoirs (because all my experiences with God are too vast to contain in this little book), I appeal to you this day, as in Matthew 8:25:

And his disciples came to him and awakened Him, saying, "Lord, save us, perish."

I am saying to you now, "Ask Him to save you right now while you are in His presence." Do not put it off any longer, for we know not what tomorrow may hold.

About the Author

From My Heart

Dear Readers,

I want to share with you what the Spirit of the Lord showed me. Many things the Lord showed me.

I have been blessed and brought up by the Lord.

The Lord blessed my grandmother to raise me and when I was about 3 or 4 years old, up until this time now, I prayed and am still praying and haven't got tired yet!

I thank God for how he has shown me many things, and all that He has shown me has come to pass.

To God be the Glory!

John 14:12

In the beginning God…

-Genesis 1:1

"From a small child,

I always felt the presence of God in my life.

I knew He was with me then,

And I know He is with me now."

Introduction

Holiness is a noun.

Following holiness is being separated from sin and being set apart for God.

Following holiness is being close to God, being like Him and seeking His presence.

Righteousness and fellowship are God's priority for His, with all our hearts, above all things.

Holiness is priority for His followers.

Holiness is God's purpose for His people when He planned their salvation in Christ.

Holiness was Christ's purpose for His people when He came to this earth.

Holiness was Christ's purpose for His people when He gave Himself up for them on the Cross.

Holiness is God's purpose in making us a new creation and in giving us the Holy Spirit.

Without holiness, no one will see the Lord.

Ephesians 1:4 (KJV)

⁴ According as he hath chosen us in him before the foundation of the world, that we should be holy and without blame before him in love:

1 Peter 1:15-16 (KJV)

¹⁵ But as he which hath called you is holy, so be ye holy in all manner of conversation; ¹⁶ Because it is written, Be ye holy; for I am holy.

To be holy, to be set apart from sin and impurity, and set apart to God; the complete moral perfection of God where eyes are put to look on evil.

Psalm 55:23 (KJV)

²³ But thou, O God, shall bring them down into the pit of destruction: bloody and deceitful men shall not live out half their days; but I will trust in thee.

The scriptures have always spoken out the truth of God's Word to me; to put life into proper perspective and to give me guidance and direction to conquer evil.

Deuteronomy 30:15 (KJV)

15 See, I have set before thee this day life and good, and death and evil;

Also, to give hope, as with Job and his experiences.

Job 2:10 (KJV)

¹⁰ But he said unto her, Thou speakest as one of
