Cannot Come Down

     "I am doing a great work," says Nehemiah, "so that I cannot come down: why should the work cease, whilst I leave it, and come down to you?" (Nehemiah 6:3).

     Yahuwah's people should not relax their watchfulness, or their vigilance, for one moment. Satan is upon our track. He is determined to overcome Yahuwah's commandment-keeping people with his temptations. If we give no place to the Devil, but resist his devices, steadfast in the faith, we shall have strength to depart from all iniquity. Those who keep the commandments of Yahuwah will be a power in the land, if they live up to their light and their privileges.

Praise Due to the Creator

Yahuwah is love. He has a care for the creatures he has formed. "Like as a father pitieth his children, so the Master pitieth them that fear him" (Psalms 103:13).  He has not designed that his creatures should be miserable. Have any of us duly considered how much we have to be thankful for? Do we remember that the mercies of the Master are new every morning, and that his faithfulness faileth not? Do we acknowledge our dependence upon him, and express gratitude for all his favors?
