In this new Pure Gold Classic edition, by Andrew Murray, we have
combined three great classic works:
- Waiting On God
- Working For God
- Be Perfect
Together, these present a trilogy of blessed truth that will
guide you into a deeper, more intimate, and more fulfilling
relationship with the Lord. Each book is comprised of 31
chapters, or lessons, designed to be month-long daily readings.

In this edition, each book builds upon the previous one in order
to guide the reader to first wait upon God in patient humility
for His will to be revealed in our lives; then to work
habitually for God in His strength alone; and then to be perfect
in heart and Christian maturity before God, “seeking to be
perfect as their Father in heaven is perfect.”
Murray beautifully unfolds Biblical truths to show the
believers in Christ that before they can seek to “be perfect”
they must first surrender their will in complete dependence upon
God’s working, and become “co-laborers” with the Lord amidst the
trials and tribulations of this world so that the cause of His
kingdom and the glory of His name might be proclaimed.
The message of the book is wonderfully summed up in Murray's
statement, “If God’s purpose with the perfection of the
individual believer is to be carried out, waiting and working
for God must have much greater prominence given to it as the
true glory of our Christian calling.”
- “I know thy works, and thy labor, and thy patience”
(Revelation 2:2).
- “It is God who girdeth me with strength and maketh my
way perfect” (Psalm 18:32).
 Andrew
A. Murray (1828-1917), was a pastor, evangelist, and
educator in the Dutch Reformed Church of South Africa for more
than 60 years. He was also the author of more than 250 books and
tracts. Other Pure Gold Classics by Murray are Absolute
Surrender, Humility, and With Christ in the School of
Prayer. Murray is known for maintaining the biblical truths
of Reformed theology amidst his deep conviction in the ruling
power of the Holy Spirit to effect great and miraculous events
in the lives of God’s people. One contemporary writer says of
the life and influence of Murray, “It was the power if the Holy
Ghost upon the heart and life of Andrew Murray that caused his
spiritual influence to be felt throughout Christendom, and his
books about Christ and the spiritual life are like a spice-laden
breeze carrying refreshment to the whole Christian world!” |
