Oh that there might be more Calebs and Joshuas in our midst that are willing to come forward and say what the Lord tells them! You can do it. Fear not.
... that there might be more Jairuses that bring their children to the Lord. Believe.
... that there might be more that would touch the hem of the garment of Jesus Christ.
... that there might be more that will take the surety of the Word of God.
Fear not, little flock, it is your Father's good pleasure to give you His kingdom.
Like God said to Abraham, "I am thy shield and thy exceeding great reward."
And don't forget, brother and sister, when you made a covenant with God, He made a covenant with you. He upholds the other end without fail. He has spared nothing in His offering to us anew each day.
God has not failed ... cannot fail ... will never fail.
May it be encouraging to us as we see the clouds gathering ... and let it not be strange if we see the powers of Heaven shaken (Luke 21:26) in your day yet and in mine.
