SEPTEMBER 4

 There is no fear in love; but perfect love casteth out fear: because fear hath torment—1. John 4:18

Mighty, imposing and terrifying indeed is the influence of fear, except upon those who have learned to know the Lord through previous experiences, and to trust Him even where they cannot trace Him. The giant of fear and despair must be met with the pebble from the brook, “It is written.” The sling of faith must propel the word of promise with such force as to slay the Adversary and to deliver us from his domination.... Thus armed only with the Word of God, and trusting in His rod and staff, we may well be courageous and answer imposing sectarianism as David answered the Philistine, “Thou comest to me with a sword and a spear and a javelin: but I come to thee in the name of the Lord of hosts, the God of…Israel, which thou hast defied.”
