"I will help thee, saith the Lord." Isaiah 41:14
Today let us hear the Lord Jesus speak to each one of us: "I will help thee." "It is but a small thing for Me, your God, to help you. Consider what I have done already. Why! not help you? Why, I bought you with My blood. I have died for you; and if I have done the greater, will I not do the less?
Help you! It is the least thing I will ever do for you; I have done more, and will do more. Before the world began I chose you. I made the covenant for you. I laid aside My glory and became a man for you; I gave up My life for you; and if I did all this, I will surely help you now. In helping you, I am giving you what I have bought for you already.
If you need a thousand times as much help, I would give it you; your needs are small compared with what I am ready to give. Your needs might be enormous, but it is nothing for me to give. 'Help you?' Fear not! If there is an ant at the door of thy granary asking for help, it would not ruin you to give him a handful of your wheat; and you are nothing but a tiny insect at the door of My all-sufficiency. 'I will help you.'"
O my soul, is this not enough? Do you need more strength than the omnipotence of the United Trinity? Do you want more wisdom than exists in the Father, more love than the Son bestows, or more power than is manifest in the influences of the Spirit?

Bring to me your
empty pitcher! Surely my well will fill it. Hurry, gather up your wants,
and bring them here--your emptiness, your woes, your needs. Behold,
this river of God is full for your supply; what do you desire more? Go
forth, my soul, in all your might. The Eternal God is your helper!
"Fear not, I am with you, do not be disappointed
I am your God, and will help you."
"Fear not, I am with you, do not be disappointed
I am your God, and will help you."
