A.B. Simpson emphasizes the importance of being 'adjusted' in every good
work as expressed in Hebrews 13:20-21. He explains that true adjustment
involves aligning ourselves with God's will and the circumstances around
us, rather than trying to change them to fit our desires. This
adjustment leads to spiritual rest, power, and freedom, allowing us to
fulfill God's plan for our lives. Simpson encourages believers to seek
God's fullness and to be used by Him in every aspect of life, ultimately
leading to joy and glory in His presence.

The prayer at the close of the Letter to the Hebrews is beautiful: Now
the God of peace, that brought again from the dead our Lord Jesus, that
great shepherd of the sheep, through the blood of the everlasting
covenant, make you perfect in every good work to do his will (Hebrews
13:20-21). The phrase "make you perfect in every good work" literally
means, "adjust you in every good work." It is a great thing to be
adjusted-adjusted to our surroundings and circumstances rather than
trying to have them adjusted to us. Adjusted to the people we are thrown
with. Adjusted to the work God has for us, not trying to get God to help
us to do our work. Adjusted to fulfill the very will and plan of God for
us in our whole life.

This is the secret of rest, power and freedom in every spiritual
endeavor.

Oh, fill me with Thy fullness, Lord. Until my very heart o'erflow In
kindling thought and glowing word, Thy love to tell, Thy praise to show.
Oh, use me, Lord, use even me, Just as Thou wilt, and when, and where;
Until Thy blessed face I see, Thy rest, Thy joy, Thy glory share.
