Psalms: Truth and Treasures 11
This Psalm has been a treasure to me. About 15 years ago, the Lord God was drawing me deeper into fellowship with Him as I began to learn more about the ministry of the Holy Spirit. I was blessed to become acquainted with the writings and testimony of Bertha Smith. This wonderful servant of The Lord was used powerfully by God to help Southern Baptist learn how to be filled with the Holy Spirit and to rely on Him. Miss Bertha’s favorite Psalm was Psalm 71.
After being on the mission field in China for almost 50 years and in one of the greatest revivals in history, in China, she came home at the age of 70. Her prayer to God was Psalm 71: 17-18. For the next 30 years, she traveled all over America as God answered her prayer, to allow her to declare His truth to the coming generations. These verses from Psalm 71: 17 &18, have become my prayer for the future. My hope and trust are in God.
