America's Keswick

Think Victory! I wear the blue wrist band containing these words as a reminder to pray for my friends at America's Keswick. I have just returned from a week of ministry at America's Keswick in Whiting, New Jersey. In fact this was my tenth year to have the remarkable privilege of ministering God's word at this historic conference center. My preaching colleague for the week was Dr. Bob Alderman. I enjoyed sitting under his ministry each day as he opened up Romans chapters 5-8. This anointed messenger preached the "Keswick Message", the Life of Victory in Christ with clarity. I believe many came into blessing and victory. It was my joy to preach a series of sermons on the Life of Elijah. One of my greatest honors in going to America's Keswick is the time I have with the Executive Director and CEO, Bill Welte. Bill is a multi-talented man. I mean that in every sense of the word. But more importantly to me... He is one of the most Godly and prayerful men I know. If you read this little not about America's Keswick I hope you will pause a moment and pray for Bill Welte and the entire Keswick family. Pray for the ministry of the Colony of Mercy. (check website). If you are seeking Victory in your Christian life it can be found in Christ and in Christ alone.

Keswick 1899

'Stand still and see! 'yea, see to-day New wonders of redeeming grace- The mighty Potter moulds the clay Again within this hallowed place- Till through the human the divine Is seen once more to move and shine Here, 'commune with thine heart; be still!' Search all the secret stores of years, Till silence now unbearable, Self betrays self mid blinding tears- Then fall at Jesus' feet and say Thou canst, 'Thou shalt, cleanse all to-day! 'Be still, and know that I am God! ' Peace, wounded conscience, heaving breast! The pierced hand bears the chastening rod, His cloud transfigures and brings rest. Take, Lord, Thy power! Reign, great I AM, O'ershadowing Guest, all-conquering Lamb! Then, in the hush of this fair tent And solemn stillness of this hour, Three thousand souls before Thee bent, Break forth, O Holy Ghost, in power- Sweep through, thou Wind of God, sweep through! Once more, cleanse, consecrate, renew! Charles A. Fox Keswick, 1899 O that we would pray like this today!!
