Faith's Checkbook (By: C.H. Spurgeon)

                                                        God Is In The Front Line

He is the One who goes before you. He will be with you, He will not leave you nor forsake you; do not fear nor be dismayed.
                                                                                 ~Deuteronomy 31:8

  "This text should help us to buckle on our harness in warfare. If Jehovah Himself goes before us, it must be safe to follow. Come, let us make a prompt advance! Why do we hesitate to pass on to victory?
  Nor is the Lord before us only; He is with us - above, beneath, around, within.
  Being before us and with us, He will never withdraw His help. He cannot fail in Himself, and He will not fail toward us. He will continue to help us according to our need, even to the end. As He cannot fail us, so He will not forsake us. He will always be both able and willing to grant us strength.
  Let us not fear nor be dismayed; for the Lord of hosts will go down to the battle with us, will bear the brunt of the fight, and give us the victory." (By: Charles H. Spurgeon ~ One Minute Devotions)
