Nov. 18
CLEARLY SUPERNATURAL
"In that day shall the Lord defend the inhabitants of Jerusalem:
and he that is feeble among them at that day shall be as David; and
the house of David shall be as God, as the angel of the Lord before
them" Zech. 12:8
One of the best methods of the Lord's defending His people is to
make them strong in inward might. Men are better than walls, and faith
is stronger than castles.
The Lord can take the feeblest among us and make him like David,
the champion of Israel. Lord, do this with me! Infuse thy power into
me, and fill me with sacred courage that I may face the giant with
sling and stone, confident in God.
The Lord can make His greatest champions far mightier than they
are: David can be as God, as the angel of Jehovah. This would be a
marvelous development, but it is possible, or it would not be spoken
of. O Lord, work thus with the best of our leaders! Show us what thou
art able to do -- namely, to raise thy faithful servants to a height
of grace and holiness which shall be clearly supernatural!
Lord, dwell in thy saints, and they shall be as God; put thy might
into them, and they shall be as the living creatures who dwell in the
presence of Jehovah. Fulfill this promise to thine entire church in
this our day, for Jesus' sake. Amen.
