“I firmly believe that the moment our hearts are emptied of pride and selfishness and ambition and self-seeking and every thing that is contrary to God's law, the Holy Ghost will come and fill every corner of our hearts; but if we are full of pride and conceit and ambition and self-seeking and pleasure and the world, there is no room for the Spirit of God; and I believe many a man is praying to God to fill him when he is full already with something else.” IfsMenWorldBelieveHeartSelfMomentsLawSpiritI BelievePleasureRoomsPridePrayingHolyAmbitionSeekingCornersContraryGhostSelfishnessHoly SpiritConceitHoly GhostPraying To GodSpirit Of God Book:Secret Power Source: Secret Power
