If thou knewest the gift of God, and who it is that saith to thee, Give me to drink; thou wouldest have asked of him, and he would have given thee living water. - If ye....being evil, know how to give good gifts unto your children: how much more shall your heavenly Father give the Holy Spirit to them that ask him? - Verily, verily, I say unto you, Whatsoever ye shall ask the Father in my name, he will give it you. Hitherto have ye asked nothing in my name: ask, and ye shall receive, that your joy may be full. - Ye have not, because ye ask not. Howbeit when he, the Spirit of truth, is come, he will guide you into all truth: for he shall not speak of himself; but whatsoever he shall hear, that shall he speak: and he will shew you things to come. He shall glorify me: for he shall receive of mine, and shall shew it unto you. They rebelled, and vexed his holy Spirit: therefore he was turned to be their enemy, and he fought against them.

Unto you....which believe he is precious: but unto them which be disobedient, the stone which the builders disallowed, the same is made the head of the corner. - Christ crucified, unto the Jews a stumblingblock, and unto the Greeks foolishness; but unto them which are called, both Jews and Greekds, Christ the power of God, and the wisdom of God. I count all things but loss for the excellency of the knowledge of Christ Jesus my Lord: for whom I have suffered the loss of all things, and do count them but dung, that I may win Christ. - Lord, thou knowest all things; thou knowest that I love the..

The 1689 Baptist Confession of Faith Of Effectual Calling Chapter 10 PARAGRAPH 1 Those whom God hath predestinated unto life, He is pleased in His appointed, and accepted time, effectually to call, (1) by His Word and Spirit, out of that state of sin and death in which they are by nature, to grace and salvation by Jesus Christ; (2) enlightening their minds spiritually and savingly to understand the things of God; (3) taking away their heart of stone, and giving to them a heart of flesh; (4) renewing their wills, and by His almighty power determining them to that which is good, and effectually drawing them to Jesus Christ; (5) yet so as they come most freely, being made willing by His grace.

James 4 v 7 Resignation is a very sweet grace: it can only be cultivated here. The believer has two kinds of graces - he has purity and resignation; God has purity, but God can have no resignation, for He has all sovereignty, He is almighty. Yet resignation to God's will is a very sweet grace; it is a flower that grows on the earth - it will not bloom yonder. It is much easier to go about a whole lifetime preaching, to preach night and day, than to be patient under sickness. There are many saints who suffered much upon earth, now shining the brightest in glory; just because they glorified God more than others by their patient submission.
