[Manna - November 18]
The angel of the Lord encampeth round about them that fear Him, and delivereth them. Psalm 34:7
HOW it enlarges the confidence of a Christian to
realize that whilst earthly powers may be in opposition,
and whilst he may be really of himself powerless
to resist adversaries, and whilst in addition to the
flesh and blood adversaries he may realize that he
battles also with spiritual wickedness in exalted places—against Satan and his minions of darkness—yet that,
on the other hand, "greater is He that is on our part
than all that be against us," and that all the heavenly
hosts are subject to the divine will and may be employed
for the advancement of the divine cause according
to divine wisdom. Z. '97-120 R2140:6
