Judges 4:1-24; Isaiah 25:1-12; 1 Corinthians 4:1-21
Nevertheless he saved them for his name’s sake, that he might make his mighty power to be known. Psalm 106:8
When Asa and his mighty men of valour went out to fight against Zerah, the Ethiopian (2 Chron. 14), Asa proclaimed how powerful the name of the Lord truly is: “Help us, O Lord our God; for we rest on thee, and in thy name we go against this multitude” (2 Chron. 14:11). As we fight our daily battles, let us too acknowledge how great the name of the Lord is! Because of His great name and His power, He is able to be victorious against any enemy that crosses
our paths today. —E. C. B.
We rest on Thee, our Shield and our Defender!
We go not forth alone against the foe;
Strong in Thy strength, safe in Thy keeping tender,
We rest on Thee, and in Thy name we go. —Edith G. Cherry
