‘Jesus Himself’ consists of brief messages preached by South African pastor Andrew Murray (1828-1917), which originally appeared in the South African Pioneer. Though originally written in 1893, this book feels like many of Andrew Murray's other works-as fresh and relevant as if it were written yesterday! This book describes the relationship that all followers of Christ long for- to be guided by Christ's Spirit on His path, hearing His voice and seeing with His light. It is packed with devotion for Jesus, and describes how to get closer to Jesus. Murray is candid in noting that there is nothing short of Jesus that will satisfy our hearts, and nothing short of complete devotion to Him that will transform our lives into ones that glorify Jesus.
“How possible it is to have Jesus Himself with us and never to know it, and how possible to preach of, and to listen to, all the truth about Jesus Himself and yet not to know Him?” Andrew Murray was concerned about this very real possibility and provided us with the antidote. In this book, Murray reflects on the profound core of the Christian life: exclusive and complete reliance on Jesus himself to bring about everything he has promised for us. It will surely inspire you and draw you closer to Jesus.
