Power for Abundant Living

The Rightly-divided Wordthe scriptures. That man divided The Word. Again,the question is whether he rightly divided it. We muststudy to show ourselves approved unto God as aworkman who does not need to be ashamed byrightly dividing The Word.Let me give another illustration of how peoplewrongly divide The Word. A man had been in aprayer meeting after which he came to the home oftwo students of the class on Power for AbundantLiving. He said to them, "You know, we have justhad the most tremendous meeting. We prayed untilwe had prayed the Holy Spirit into the meeting."The Abundant Living student said, "Do you meanyou prayed 'so fervently that you prayed the HolySpirit into your prayer group? I thought that God isthe Holy Spirit and that He is everywhere present.How could you pray Him in?""Oh," the man said, "we did."So the students asked the man to give them thechapter and verse. He turned to the book of Jude andgave this verse to prove that they had prayed theHoly Spirit into that meeting.Jude, Verse 20:But ye, beloved, building up yourselves on themost holy faith, praying in [in] the Holy Ghost.117
