Truth Will Triumph, September 28
Thus saith the Lord unto you, Be not afraid nor dismayed by reason
of this great multitude; for the battle is not your’s, but God’s.
2
Chronicles 20:15
.
There is work for every individual who names the name of Christ. A
voice from heaven is solemnly calling you to duty. Heed this voice, and
go to work at once in any place, in any capacity. Why stand ye here all
the day idle? There is work for you to do, a work that demands your best
energies. Every precious moment of life is related to some duty which you
owe to God or to your fellow men....
A great work of saving souls remains yet to be done. Every angel in
glory is engaged in this work, while every demon of darkness is opposing
it. Christ has demonstrated to us the great value of souls in that He came to
the world with the hoarded love of eternity in His heart, offering to make
man heir to all His wealth. He unveils before us the love of the Father
for the guilty race and presents Him as just and the justifier of him that
believeth
There are vast numbers arrayed against the truth, whom we must meet
in presenting the light to others. Our hope is not in our knowledge of
the truth, and in our own ability, but in the living God.... God’s glory
is at stake. And there should be decided effort as far as human effort is
concerned, and living faith for the mighty God to manifest His power, else
all will prove a failure. God defeated the enemies of Israel. He put their
forces into disorder. They fled they knew not whither. Who can stand
before the Lord God of Israel?
Now we are not warring against flesh and blood, but against principal-
ities and powers and spiritual wickedness in high places. The Lord would
encourage us to look to Him as the source of all our strength, the One who
is able to help us.... When the God of Israel undertakes work for us, He
will make it a success
Truth will triumph
