Book Review: Don't Wait Till the New Year to Buy This
Summary: 5 Stars
I?m embarrassed to say I didn?t know anything about Oswald Chambers until I came across this book at a reduced price and bought two copies, one for a sick friend and one for myself. What a blessing it turned out to be for both of us!The one-page essays, one for each day of the year (even February 29!), are deeply thought provoking and can be the basis for a daily meditation session. Be warned that the essays can be challenging. For example, Chambers pressures readers to consider whether we are trying to ?perfect? ourselves as some kind of model Christian that God can display on a trophy shelf we imagine He has, rather than truly trying to perceive and submit to His will? Or are we interfering with God?s will by trying to be an ?amateur providence? who helps people through their difficulties by telling them what we think they should do rather than leading them toward Christ so He can tell them what they should to do?
The Scripture verses are from the New King James Version translation.
I HIGHLY recommend My Utmost for His Highest to Christians of all persuasions as an aid for contemplation, encouragement and spiritual growth. This is a rare devotional book that you?ll want to keep and refer to or reread frequently.
Summary of BLS My Utmost for His Highest (Believer's Life System)
The most beloved devotional of all times is now available in loose-leaf form. Oswald Chambers was a man dedicated to God, the proclamation of His Word, and the people chosen to follow Jesus Christ. As a pastor, teacher, and trainer, his words of inspiration have encouraged millions to walk closer with the Savior. With 365 daily readings in a format for use in your Believer's Life System, you will find yourself challenged and encouraged to know God in a deeper and more personal way. Turn spare minutes in your day into teachable times from the Lord, by turning to this devotional during your quiet time, in the office, on the train, or while waiting for an appointment - and learn to give your utmost for His highest.
Oswald Chambers, a Scotsman who converted to Christianity in his teens under the ministry of Charles Spurgeon, has been affecting Christians with his devotional words since My Utmost for His Highest was first published in 1935. This acknowledged classic contains 365 daily readings that take heady doctrine and make it practical, realistic, and intensely personal. With humor and humility, Chambers speaks plainly to the common man struggling with devotion to Christ in daily living. Worldly cares and self-serving desires begin to lose their appeal as Chambers aides the reader in transforming his mind by viewing life through the instruction of God's Word. Richard Halverson, former chaplain of the United States Senate, attests to this: "no book except the Bible has influenced my walk with Christ at such deep maturing levels." This is Chambers's chief desire, directing the reader to "shut out every other consideration and keep yourself before God for this one thing only--My Utmost for His Highest... determined to be absolutely and entirely for Him and for Him alone." --Jill Heatherly
