The LORD of hosts is with us; the God of Jacob is our refuge. Selah.
The Lord of hosts is with His people, and the God of Jacob is their refuge. Judah on its victorious return from battle could sing these words with understanding, because the people had trusted wholly in God and He had proved to be their fortress and deliverer.
That truth is reason to put trust in the Lord, to refuse the dark side and all fear and despondency, and to keep prayers ascending while settled and grounded in the truth and holding fast the Word of God. That abiding presence is the Source of all power and infinite power for faith to grasp, the sufficiency provided when sadness and satanic agencies and increasing pressure hedge up the way. That sufficiency enables men, women, and youth, united, to continue as long as life lasts in the one great work of preaching the gospel to every creature and bearing testimony, with no criticism to break up faith and no sowing of tares among the wheat.
