The Mighty Helper

THE appeal of this paper is for prohibition. But before prohibition comes to many in this land, there are weary years, and months, and days, and hours, of temptation in the path of victory or defeat. Let us tell you of the One "mighty to save," who will forgive the past, who will take the feet from the mire and the clay, who will set them upon the rock, who will put a new song in your mouth, who will establish your goings, who will walk with you — Jesus the Son of God, the sinners' Friend. His grace is sufficient. Believe it. He can take away the appetite forever. He will take it away if you believe, unless He wants you to learn to battle for victory. Then He will give you grace to conquer. There is help in Him. Go to Him, just as you are. Tell Him all about it. He died to help you. His ears are open to your prayers. His hand is outstretched to help. He died to save you. Let Him do it. He will give you a new heart, a new spirit, a new life. Listen: "Come now, and let us reason together, saith the Lord: though your sins be as scarlet, they shall be as white as snow; though they be red like crimson, they shall be as wool. If ye be willing and obedient, ye shall eat the good of the land." Isa. 1:18, 19. "He will have compassion upon us; He will subdue our iniquities." Micah 7:19. "Believe on the Lord Jesus, and thou shalt be saved." Acts 16:31. Enslaved reader, whoever you are, there is the freedom of noble manhood in our Lord Jesus Christ.
