Genesis 10:1-11:26; Job 13:1-14:22; Matthew 6:19-7:6

For it is God which worketh in you both to will and to do of his good pleasure. Philippians 2:13

God’s will is that His people gather to Him in His name. Saved people who want to follow Him and His Word are attracted to Christ, the gathering centre. They are drawn to the Word of God, the source of our instruction and the Holy Spirit, who presides over the group. He is the Divine Teacher. Spiritual gifts are used by individuals under His control, for the benefit of all. Saints enjoy deep and genuine fellowship together with the Lord in that place. —G. C. G.

In the midst His place He taketh,
Holy thus the gath’ring maketh;
Every thought of Him;
Awaketh praise in His name! —William Kirkpatrick
