October 16 Morning: "The Lord shall be thy confidence" - Prov 3:26

HE IS ABLE TO KEEP YOU FROM FALLING. Our Saviour alone is able to present you faultless before the presence of His glory with exceeding joy. Our happiness consists in knowing God and believing Him; if we know His true character, we can believe His precious word; and if we believe it, we can enjoy perfect peace and complete satisfaction. He presents Himself in His word as able and willing to make us holy, happy, and honourable. To Him we may communicate all that troubles us; from Him we may receive all that our circumstances require; with Him we may walk and enjoy peace. We may rest confident in God, for He is faithful; He has spoken to us, will appear for us, and will never turn away from us; but He will rejoice over us to do us good with His whole heart and with His whole soul. Let us make Him our confidence by believing His Word, frequenting His throne, and seeking His glory in all things. Are you troubled and cast down? Acquaint now thyself with Him and be at peace, thereby shall good come unto thee. They that trust in the Lord shall be as Mount Zion, which cannot be removed, but abideth for ever. May the Lord be thy confidence.

For Meditation:
Thou, Lord, on whom I all depend,
Wilt keep me faithful to the end:
I trust Thy truth, and love and power
Shall save me to the final hour;
And when I lay this body down,
Give me a bright and glorious crown.
