She encourages steadfast faith in God's ability to bring forth new life from what was once dead, emphasizing the importance of surrender and trust in the Lord's sovereign power. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ CONTENT ------------------------------------------------------------------------ This Word was spoken in me, saying, If ye can fast with me from Mortal things: then will be given you to eat that, which will supply all of Eternal Nature's Properties, for which your Spirit is so perplexed to find them out. But for this, give place to the Fire-Engin, that may display its bright Rays for your conduct to that secret place; wherefrom they will be raised. Look steddily with Faith's Eye, till the Lordly Power doth out-stretch it self, a Vigorous Life to draw over that; which has lain under Death. ======================================================================== Source: https://sermonindex.net/speakers/jane-lead/may-19-1678-on-the-same-subject/ ========================================================================
