Stand Near the Flag of Truth

If God is for us, who can be against us? Nothing else counts. It is ever a foolish and futile thing to count the heads in the opposing ranks. Some say, "God is always on the side of the big battalions!" It is a black lie of the Devil! We need not fear the big battalions if only we are securely in the right. We are not to count heads but to weigh and estimate causes. Which of the causes provides a tent for the Lord God of Hosts? Where has the truth its waving flag? Stand near that flag, my soul, and thou wilt be near thy Lord! And nothing shall separate thee from His love and leave thee weak and isolated on the field. Thou shalt be 'more than a conqueror' in Him who loves thee and will love thee forevermore. —J.H. Jowett
