Dare Not Doubt
I will go before you and level the exalted places, I will break in pieces the doors of bronze and cut through the bars of iron. (Isa 45:2 ESV)
This was for Cyrus!
It is also evermore the heritage of all the Lord’s own spiritual servants.
For “the promise is for you and your children and for all who are far off for all whom the Lord our God will call.” (Acts 2:39)
Only let us go forward by faith, and the way will be cleared for us.
Crooks and turns of human craft and satanic subtlety shall be straightened for us!
We shall not need to track their devious windings.
The gates of brass shall be broken, and the iron bars which fastened them shall be cut asunder. We shall not need the battering ram nor the crowbar!
The Lord Himself will do the impossible for us, and the unexpected shall be a fact.
Let us not sit down in coward fear.
Let us press onward in the path of duty, for the Lord has said it: “I will go before you.”
Ours is not to reason why but to dare and dash forward in faith.
It is the Lord’s work, and He will enable us to do it!
All impediments must yield before Him.
Has He not said, “I will break in pieces the gates of brass!”
What can hinder His purpose or balk His decrees?
Those who serve God have infinite resources.
The way is clear to faith though barred to human systems and strength.
When God says, “I will,” as He does twice in this promise, we dare not doubt.
What to do now?
Just praise Him in faith!
