Immediately Present.


Immediately Present.

"God is our refuge and strength, 
a very present help in trouble." 
(Psalm 46:1)

A help that is not present when we need it is of small value.
 The anchor which is left at home is of no use to the seaman in the hour of storm; the money which he used to have is of no worth to the debtor when a writ is out against him. 
Very few earthly helps could be called "very present": 
they are usually far in the seeking, far in the using, 
and farther still when once used.
 But as for the Lord our God, He is present when we seek Him, 
present when we need Him, and present when we have already enjoyed His aid.

He is more than "present," He is very present. 
More present than the nearest friend can be, for He is in us in our trouble; 
more present than we are to ourselves, 
for sometimes we lack presence of mind.
 He is always present, effectually present, sympathetically present, 
altogether present. 

He is present now if this is a gloomy season.
 Let us rest ourselves upon Him. 
He is our refuge, let us hide in Him; He is our strength, 
let us array ourselves with Him; He is our help, let us lean upon Him; 
He is our very present help, let us repose in Him now. 

We need not have a moment's care or an instant's fear. 
"The Lord of hosts is with us; the God of Jacob is our refuge."

 He is the #1 in my life and the most important, the purpose of my life is for HIM to increase in every single way that I can share the pure Gospel and I'm certain that HIS Word never comes back void. 
Isaiah 55:11 King James Version (KJV)
So shall my word be that goeth forth out of my mouth:
 it shall not return unto me void, 
but it shall accomplish that which I please, 
and it shall prosper in the thing whereto I sent it.

"Through," Not Engulfed.


"Through," Not Engulfed.

"When thou passest through the waters, I will be with thee; and through the rivers, they shall not overflow thee: when thou walkest through the fire, thou shalt not be burned; neither shall the flame kindle upon thee." 
(Isaiah 43:2)

Bridge there is none: we must go through the waters and feel the rush of the rivers. 
The presence of God in the flood is better than a ferryboat.
 Tried we must be, but triumphant we shall be; for Jehovah Himself, 
who is mightier than many waters, shall be with us. 
Whenever else He may be away from His people, 
the Lord will surely be with them in difficulties and dangers.
 The sorrows of life may rise to an extraordinary height,
 but the Lord is equal to every occasion.

The enemies of God can put in our way dangers of their own making, 
namely, persecutions and cruel mockings, which are like a burning, 
fiery furnace.
 What then? We shall walk through the fires. 
God being with us, we shall not be burned; nay, 
not even the smell of fire shall remain upon us.

Oh, the wonderful security of the heaven-born and heaven-bound pilgrim! 
Floods cannot drown him, nor fires burn him. 
Thy presence, O Lord, is the protection of Thy saints from the varied perils of the road. 
Behold, in faith I commit myself unto Thee, and my spirit enters into rest.

Love in Jesus.

Pardon and Forgiveness.


Pardon and Forgiveness.

"He will not always chide: 
neither will he keep his anger for ever."
(Psalm 103:9)

He will chide sometimes, or He would not be a wise Father for such poor, erring children as we are. 
His chiding is very painful to those who are true, 
because they feel how sadly they deserve it and how wrong it is on their part to grieve Him. 
We know what this chiding means, and we bow before the Lord, 
mourning that we should cause Him to be angry with us.

But what a comfort we find in these lines!
 "Not always" will He chide.
 If we repent and turn to Him with hearts broken for sin and broken from sin, He will smile upon us at once. 
It is no pleasure to Him to turn a frowning face toward those whom He loves with all His heart: it is His joy that our joy should be full.

Come, let us seek His face. 
There is no reason for despair, nor even for despondency. 
Let us love a chiding God, and before long we shall sing, 
"Thine anger is turned away, and thou comfortest me."

 Be gone, ye dark forebodings, ye ravens of the soul! 
Come in, ye humble hopes and grateful memories,
 ye doves of the heart! 
He who pardoned us long ago as a judge will again forgive us as a father, and we shall rejoice in His sweet, unchanging love.
