British born Arthur Burt has proven many truths in over

70 years of ministry-sometimes by doing things right,

but more often by doing things wrong.  His story recounts

his struggles with pride, carnality, rebellion and fear,

and how, through God's dealings, he learned wisdom.

"Most of the people from my generation whom I knew, loved and esteemed

are gone.  I have never been important in the eyes of men, never one of the

greats.  If you ask me who I am, I will tell you, I am nobody.  And the

message I bring today is that every somebody will now have to become

nobody.  We must lose our identity in the Body of Christ, because

Father will not give His glory to anybody but Christ."

God is in the ordinary.  Of all the "How to..." books, this

one about "How to be Ordinary" must be at the bottom of the

pile!  How to win, How to Prosper, How to be Holy, How to be

Victorious, How to Overcome, How to have a Revelation...!

This is like writing a book on How to be Bankrupt!  Who wants

to be bankrupt?!

Is this why I've missed it?  I've passed by.  I've been set for

learning, not unlearning.  I've been set for being somebody.  I

don't want to be nobody.  Does the truth, "I am ordinary", pave

the way into the extraordinary?  Is this what Jesus meant when

He said, "I have many things to say to you, but you cannot bear

them yet...?"  (John 16:12)  Have I embraced the truth that I am

ordinary?

SURRENDER Is The Best Kept Secret in the Kingdom!

Is there a key to spiritual success?

What is the real secret?

So many people find themselves in an inward prison, bound

by chains of sin and failure, with no key to set them free.  They

pile up worldly solutions-drugs, pleasures, psychiatry-but

none will ever meet their deepest needs.

What will set you free from your failure?

What will release you from your sin?

Arthur Burt believes surrender is the key to spiritual success.

In this book he explains how even apparent failure can be a

stepping stone to experiencing the glory of God in your life,

once you surrender to His perfect plan.

"Prove Me NOW."  This was God speaking.  And yet I thought

that after 77 years as a Christian, a believer and a preacher, I

could never put down on paper a book that fully justified

"Prove Me Now."

But I began to realize if God is saying, "PROVE ME NOW,"

this is obviously an opportunity for God.  I meditated on this, an opportunity

for God, not for Arthur Burt, but for God's glory in whatever He gives me,

whatever He shows me.  I wondered how I have proved God through the

years.  I proved Him through my failures, my mistakes, through His

mercy and His Grace and through many emergencies.

Many from around the world have visited his home,

Bron Wendon, in Penmaenmawr, North Wales, and many have

come to the annual "Living Waters" conventions.  Many know

the story, "A house for the glory of God."

Arthur and Marjorie Burt were married for 65 years and had

nine children and more than 50 grandchildren and great-grandchildren.  As a

family man, a preacher, teacher and storyteller, he's been known in the churches

all around the world as "Uncle Arthur."

He came to Wales from Paddock Wood in Kent, England, where he was a pastor.

One day in Paddock Wood the Lord spoke one Word to Arthur: "Go."  He gave up

his work in Kent and has taken a very specific message to some 44 nations for

more than 50 years.  He said it was out of painful obedience that he entered into

delight and purpose, to help prepare a people to handle the glory of God...

to His glory.  He said, "now that day is at hand...."

He's often said, "Big doors swing on little hinges."  Arthur Burt's life changed

when he answered the call of God to "Go."  Consequently, many lives all over

the world were changed and refocused as he freely poured out the Word the

Lord had given him.

His stories, teaching and proclamations echo deep ponderings over the Word.

While he searched out the mysteries of the Kingdom, his life became an

adventure exploring the ways of God in many nations.

With spontaneity, humour and serious outcries, Arthur emphasises, "Prepare!

We're in the last of the last days!  Humble yourself!  He's calling for a people

who can handle the Presence of God to the Glory of God!  Jesus did everything

with nothing.  (John 5:30)  We are ushering in the dawn of a new day.  The

time is at hand-the dispensation of the fullness of times, where there shall

be no ebb...."
