are glorifying him. We are not to dwell on the great power of Satan
to overcome us. Often we give ourselves into his hands by talking of
his power. Let us talk instead of the great power of God to bind up
all our interests with His own. Tell of the matchless power of Christ,
and speak of His glory.
All heaven is interested in our salvation. The angels of God,
thousands upon thousands, and ten thousand times ten thousand, are
commissioned to minister to those who shall be heirs of salvation.
They guard us against evil and press back the powers of darkness
that are seeking our destruction. Have we not reason to be thankful
every moment, thankful even when apparent difficulties stand in our
pathway?
Sing Praises
Let praise and thanksgiving be expressed in song. When tempted,
instead of giving utterance to our feelings, let us by faith lift up a
song of thanksgiving to God.
We praise Thee, O God, for the Son of Thy love—
For Jesus who died and is now gone above.
We praise Thee, O God, for Thy Spirit of light,
Who has shown us our Savior, and scattered our night.
All glory and praise to the Lamb that was slain,
Who has borne all our sins, and has cleansed every stain.
All glory and praise to the God of all grace,
Who has bought us, and sought us, and guided our ways.
Revive us again; fill each heart with Thy love;
May each soul be rekindled with fire from above.
CHORUS:
Hallelujah! Thine the glory, Hallelujah! amen;
Hallelujah! Thine the glory, Revive us again.
Song is a weapon that we can always use against discouragement.
As we thus open the heart to the sunlight of the Savior’s presence,
we shall have health and His blessing.
[140]
“Give thanks to the Lord, for He is good!
For His mercy endures forever.
