Deu 31:8 And the LORD, he it is that doth go before thee; he will be with thee, he will not fail thee, neither forsake thee: fear not, neither be dismayed.
In the presence of a
great work or a great warfare, here is a text which should help us to
buckle on our harness.
If Jehovah Himself goes before us, it must be
safe to follow. Who can obstruct our progress if the LORD Himself is in
the van?
Come, brother soldiers, let us make a prompt advance! Why do we
hesitate to pass on to victory?
Nor is the LORD before us only; He is
with us. Above, beneath, around, within is the omnipotent, omnipresent
One.
In all time, even to eternity, He will be with us even as He has
been. How this should nerve our arm!
Dash at it boldly, ye soldiers of
the cross, for the LORD of hosts is with us!
Being before us and with
us, He will never withdraw His help. He cannot fail in Himself, and He
will not fail toward us.
He will continue to help us according to our
need, even to the end. As He cannot fail us, so He will not forsake us.
He will always be both able and willing to grant us strength and succor
till fighting days are gone.
Let us not fear nor be dismayed; for the
LORD of hosts will go down to the battle with us, will bear the brunt of
the fight, and give us the victory.
~Charles Spurgeon~
