PROMISE FOR MAY 2ND

"For in the time of trouble he shall hide me in his pavilion: in the secret of his tabernacle shall he hide me; he shall set me upon a rock." Psalm 27:5

It is well, especially in this time of greatest need, that the LORD'S people should consider the value of this portion of the Christian's armor (faith) and that the doors of their faith should thoroughly shut them into the secret place of the Most High. When reproaches fall thick and fast ... when their names are cast out as evil .... ah, then is the time for firmly grasping the shield of faith and for adopting the triumphant language of the Psalmist--" (as above.) R. 1788, c.1, p.5.
