GLORIOUS POWER.

By Frederick M. Wilcox

It is the privilege of the child of God to be "strengthened with all might according to His glorious power unto all patience and long-suffering with joyfulness." We said it was his privilege to have this strength; it is his privilege, his right, and his duty. If Christ is in him and he in Christ, he will have it. And think how much power it confers. It is "might according to His glorious power." Christ says, "All power is given unto me in heaven and in earth." Then the promise to the Christian is that, in his battle against sin, he may have divine power. That power will be bestowed in proportion as he becomes a "partaker of the divine nature." With such unlimited resources as these from which to draw, certainly the child of God may take heart. Christ is his Captain, and victory through him knows no defeat. F. M. W.
