Please join us in prayer.
I join in prayer for President Bush, the Administration, the election and our heroes standing in harm’s way!
AMEN SISTER AND GRACE TO ALL CHRISTIAN PATRIOTS!
“Forget not all His benefits.”
- Psalm 103:2
It is a delightful and profitable occupation to mark the hand of God in
the lives of ancient saints, and to observe his goodness in delivering
them, his mercy in pardoning them, and his faithfulness in keeping his
covenant with them. But would it not be even more interesting and
profitable for us to remark the hand of God in our own lives? Ought we not
to look upon our own history as being at least as full of God, as full of
his goodness and of his truth, as much a proof of his faithfulness and
veracity, as the lives of any of the saints who have gone before? We do
our Lord an injustice when we suppose that he wrought all his mighty acts,
and showed himself strong for those in the early time, but doth not
perform wonders or lay bare his arm for the saints who are now upon the
earth. Let us review our own lives. Surely in these we may discover some
happy incidents, refreshing to ourselves and glorifying to our God. Have
you had no deliverances? Have you passed through no rivers, supported by
the divine presence? Have you walked through no fires unharmed? Have you
had no manifestations? Have you had no choice favours? The God who gave
Solomon the desire of his heart, hath he never listened to you and
answered your requests? That God of lavish bounty of whom David sang, “Who
satisfieth thy mouth with good things,” hath he never satiated you with
fatness? Have you never been made to lie down in green pastures? Have you
never been led by the still waters? Surely the goodness of God has been
the same to us as to the saints of old. Let us, then, weave his mercies
into a song.
Let us take the pure gold of thankfulness, and the jewels of praise and
make them into another crown for the head of Jesus.
Let our souls give forth music as sweet and as exhilarating as came from
David’s harp, while we praise the Lord whose mercy endureth for ever.
