Essay
65. "When any child of God decides to step out in absolute obedience to the will of God, there will be a frantic effort by the
powers of darkness to block him. Obstacles will spring up to hinder that one. The possibility of obedience will seem
more and more hopeless. When things are the blackest and most discouraging is the very time not to give up. That
kind of namby-pamby surrender will be quickly swamped. To keep looking at our difficulties will also swamp us. We
need to look resolutely away from the impossibilities and to the Lord. His help will come, through often it cannot break
through to us until the last moment. It is very important that we be ready and prepared for action up to the last split
second. God does not even mess that split second. He may seem to be delayed, but he will not be too late for the
expectant soul waiting in active faith."
