The great privation: or, the great salvation

The great privation: or, the great salvation

‘O that thou hadst hearkened to my commandments! 

then had thy peace been as a river, 

and thy righteousness as the waves of the sea.’ 

Isaiah 48:18

Suggested Further Reading: 

Ezekiel 47:1–5

A river increases in breadth, and its waters augment their volume. You can leap across the Thames, say at Cricklade, or Kemble; it is so tiny a little brook, you may almost take it up in a cup. 

There is a narrow plank across which laughing village girls go tripping over; but who thinks of laying down a plank across the Thames at Southend, or at Grays? Who would imagine that at Gravesend it might be crossed by the tripping girls, or by the skipping lambs? No, the river has grown—how deep! At the mouth of it, I suppose, comparable to the sea—how broad! It is a sort of ocean in miniature. 

There go the ships, and that leviathan might play therein. Not behemoth himself, I think, would have the presumption to suppose that he could sniff up this Jordan at a draught, for it has grown too great for him. Such is the Christian’s peace. 

Pure and perfect though it is at the first, little temptations seem to mar it; oftentimes the troubles of this life threaten to choke it. Not that they ever do. 

True, it seems little at the point of its rise. 

Be not deceived. 

Wait.

 When the Christian is ten years older, and has meandered a few more miles along the tortuous course of a gracious experience, his peace will be like a broad river. 

Wait twenty or thirty years, till he has traversed these rich lowlands of fellowship with Christ in his sufferings, and conformity to his death, then his peace will be like a deep river, for he shall know ‘the peace of God which passeth all understanding;’ and he will have cast all his care upon God, who cares for him.

 Thus that peace will go on increasing till it melts into the infinite peace of the beatific vision.

For meditation: 

Rivers in Scripture are often pictures of God’s blessings to his people—bringing to them fruitfulness (Psalm 1:3), pleasure (Psalm 36:8), gladness (Psalm 46:4) and peace (Isaiah 66:12). Think on these things.

Refreshing Sleep

Refreshing Sleep

"So He giveth His beloved sleep"

 (Psalm 127:2).

Ours is not a life of anxious care but of happy faith. 

Our heavenly Father will supply the wants of His own children, and He knoweth what we have need of before we ask Him. 

We may therefore go to our beds at the proper hour and not wear ourselves out by sitting up late to plot, and plan, and contrive. 

If we have learned to rely upon our God, we shall not lie awake with fear gnawing at our hearts; but we shall leave our care with the LORD, our meditation of Him shall be sweet, and He will give us refreshing sleep.

To be the LORD's beloved is the highest possible honor, and he who has it may feel that ambition itself could desire no more, and therefore every selfish wish may go to sleep. 

What more is there even in heaven than the love of God? Rest, then, O soul, for thou hast all things. Yet we toss to and fro unless the LORD Himself gives us not only the reasons for rest but rest itself. Yea, He doth this. 

Jesus Himself is our peace, our rest, our all, On His bosom we sleep in perfect security, both in life and in death.

Sprinkled afresh with pardoning blood,

I lay me down to rest

As in the embraces of my God,

Or on my Saviour's breast.

Men chosen—fallen angels rejected

Men chosen—fallen angels rejected

“Verily he took not on him the nature of angels; 

but he took on him the seed of Abraham.” 

Hebrews 2:16

Suggested Further Reading: 

2 Peter 2:4-9

Adam broke the covenant of works; he touched the accursed fruit, and in that day he fell. Ah! What a fall was there! 

Then you, and I, and all of us fell down, while cursed sin triumphed over us; there were no men that stood; there were some angels that stood, but no men, for the fall of Adam was the fall of our entire race. 

After one portion of the angels had fallen, it pleased God to stamp their doom, and make it fast and firm; but when man fell, it did not so please God; he had threatened to punish him, but in his infinite mercy he made some the object of his special affection, for whom he provided a precious remedy, and secured it by the blood of his everlasting Son. 

These are the persons whom we call the elect; and those whom he has left to perish, perish on account of their own sins, most justly, to the praise of his glorious justice. 

Now, here you notice divine sovereignty; sovereignty, that God chose to put both men and angels on the footing of their free-will, sovereignty, in that he chose to punish all the fallen angels with utter destruction; sovereignty, in that he chose to reprieve, and grant an eternal pardon to a number, whom no man can number, selected out of men, who shall infallibly be found before his right hand above. 

My text mentions this great fact, for when properly translated it reads thus:- “He took not up angels, but he took on him the seed of Abraham.”

For meditation: 

The Lord Jesus Christ witnessed Satan’s expulsion from Heaven, and as surely guarantees the believer’s entrance into Heaven (Luke 10:18,20).

One Look from the LORD!

One Look from the LORD!

"And the LORD looked upon him, and said, 
Go in this thy might, 
and thou shalt save Israel from the hand of the Midianites:
 have not I sent thee?"   
(Judges 6:14).

What a look was that which the LORD gave to Gideon!
He looked him out of his discouragement into a holy bravery.
If our look to the LORD saves us, what will not His look at us do? LORD, look on me this day and nerve me for its duties and conflicts.

What a word was this which Jehovah spoke to Gideon! "Go." He must not hesitate. He might have answered, "What, go in all this weakness?" But the LORD put that word out of court by saying, "Go in this thy might."

 The LORD had looked might into him, and he had now nothing to do but to use it and save Israel by smiting the Midianites.
It may be that the LORD has more to do by me than I ever dreamed of. If He has looked upon me, He has made me strong.

 Let me by faith exercise the power with which He has entrusted me. He never bids me "idle away my time in this my might."
 Far from it. I must "go" because He strengthens me.

What a question is that which the LORD puts to me even as He put it to Gideon! "Have not I sent thee!" Yes, LORD, Thou hast sent me, and I will go in Thy strength.

At Thy command I go, and, going,
I am assured that Thou wilt conquer by me.
