“To have delivered me from all my troubles had been a great favour, but a far greater to deliver me from all my fears; for where that would but have freed me from present evil, this secures me from evil to come; that now I enjoy not only tranquility, but security, a privilege only of the godly.” Sir Richard Baker; 1568 -1645

“Sometimes a sudden passion arises, and out it goes in angry and forward words, setting all in an uproar and combustion: by-and-by our hearts recur upon us, and then we wish, “O that I had bit my tongue and not given it such an unbridled liberty.” Richard Alleine; 1611-1681

“For we may be well assured that what God’s goodness, grace, and mercy moved him to promise, his truth, his faithfulness, and righteousness will move him to perform.” William Gouge; 1575-1653

“Cause me to hear thy strengthening and encouraging voice. If the voice of thy grace be not lifted up in my spirit, reanimating my feeble faith, I feel that there is but a step between me and despair.” Jean Baptiste Massillon (1663-1742)

“Alas, how many in our day who profess to be the Lord’s are as abjectly dependent upon their fellow-men or upon an arm of flesh in some shape or other, as if they had never known the name of Jehovah at all.” (Charles H. Spurgeon; 1834-1892)

The duration of the Satan’s encounters will last until he is destroyed. He only conspires in sabotage and vandalism. Leaving the evil monster to the will of God is our greatest wisdom. Should we seek to do battle against him in the power of our own strength will only result in bringing upon ourselves an absolute crushing defeat. (Anonymous)

“God never intended that any one should wrestle with evil without the power of the Spirit.” (Norval Geldenhuys )

“Hallowed be Thy Name. That this petition stands first warns us against self-seeking in prayer. We are not to begin with our own wants, not even our spiritual wants; not with ourselves at all, but with God.” (Alfred Plummer; 1841-1926)

In these names, Lord and Jesus, Christ’s divinity and humanity blend. He whom we trust is both God and Man. As God alone, we could never have known Him. As Man alone, He could never have saved us. (William Graham Scroggie; 1877-1958)
