The Lord’s Guaranty

By George W. Amadon

In Ps. 110:3 it says, “Thy people shall be willing in the day of thy power.” This text most assuredly has its application at the close of the gospel day. The last verses of the psalm confirm this. As we consider the work that is now being done with the book, “Christ’s Object Lessons,” this text gives a comforting assurance, and the statement is definite that God’s people “shall be willing.” To be willing means to have a mind ready to act, not opposing some measure, but cheerfully doing something. And this ready assent of God’s people seems to apply at a certain, definite time; it is in the day of his power.

In Rev. 11:17 the twenty-four elders fall on their faces and give thanks to God, saying, “Because thou hast taken to thee thy great power, and hast reigned.” Ps. 110:3 states how it will be with the Lord’s people in that significant time: they will be willing to be used by God, and so will be co-workers with him. Alas, that any one in this eventful time should have the Meroz experience. See Judges 5:23.
