“Finally,
in the end, it came to the point that He cast them out of His presence”
(2 Kings 24:20). Help us, Lord, to hear and heed Your Word of warning.
We thank You, Lord, that You are “patient … not wanting anyone to
perish, but everyone to come to repentance” (2 Peter 3:9). Help us never
to presume upon Your patience – “Shall we go on sinning, so that grace
may increase? God forbid!” (Romans 6:1-2).
By Your grace, Lord, You call us to be Your soldiers and servants. Help us not to be "fearful and fainthearted" (Deuteronomy 19:19). Help us to be "good soldiers of Jesus Christ" (2 Timothy 2:3). When we hear your challenging question: "Who is on the Lord's side?", may we give our committed answer: "By Thy call of mercy, by Thy grace divine, we are on the Lord's side; Saviour, we are Thine."
