    Prince Immanuel, November 7

    “He will not fail nor be discouraged, till He has established justice in the earth; and the coastlands shall wait for His law.”—Isaiah 42:4JNN 328.1

    The church that would prove successful in the Master’s service must be an aggressive one. Its members must not allow their interest in the work to lag. Heavenly intelligences are ready to co-operate with the human agent to press forward the work. At whatever cost press the battle to the gates of the enemy; yea, storm the very citadel. Do not allow yourselves to fail nor be discouraged. Christ’s authority is supreme. His power is invincible. Through the Holy Spirit the Lord works with the human agent. “He hath appointed us to preach good tidings unto the meek; He hath sent us to bind up the broken-hearted; to proclaim liberty to the captives; and the opening of the prison to them that are bound; to proclaim the acceptable year of the Lord, and the day of vengeance of our God: to comfort all that mourn, to appoint unto them that mourn in Zion; to give unto them beauty for ashes, the oil of joy for mourning, and the garment of praise for the spirit of heaviness; that they might be called trees of righteousness, the planting of the Lord, that He might be glorified.” The Sun of Righteousness has arisen. Christ is waiting to clothe His people with the garments of salvation. And “He shall not fail nor be discouraged, till He have set judgment in the earth; and the isles shall wait for His law.” “His glory shall be seen upon thee. And the Gentiles shall come to thy light, the kings to the brightness of thy rising.”JNN 328.2

    The Lord does not wish to have one true soldier of the cross remain in ignorance or darkness. He calls us up, high above the earth, that He may show us the vast confederacy of evil that is arrayed against us. He would remind us that “we wrestle not against flesh and blood, but against principalities, against powers, against the rulers of the darkness of this world, against spiritual wickedness in high places.” But He assures us all who are engaged in this warfare that they are fighting under the “Captain of the Lord’s hosts,” and that the angels of heaven are assisting them in their struggle for the “crown that fadeth not away.” Let us rally under the banner of Prince Immanuel, and in the name and strength of Jesus Christ press the battle home.—Bible Training School, June 1911.JNN 328.3

    Further Reflection: How does it make me feel to know that as God’s people work for the lost, all of heaven will be right there with us as we press the battle home?JNN 328.4
