"The Lord is the strength of my life; of whom shall I be afraid?" (Psalm 27:1)
The song for God's people in the time of trouble is: "Behold, God is my salvation: I will trust, and not be afraid." (Isaiah 12:2)
The only remedy against fear is the knowledge that God is our strength and our salvation. Whoever trusts to the strength which he imagines that he has in and of himself, is sure sooner or later to fail through fear; but he who knows and acknowledges God as his sole strength cannot fail nor be frightened, because he knows that God cannot fail.
The Rock of Ages stands firm.
But this means the constant recognition of the fact that we have no strength of brain or muscle apart from God; that it is in Him that we live and move. (Acts 17:28) How gladly we should make this acknowledgment, since it means so much for us.--Present Truth, July 7, 1904--Psalm 27:1.
