JULY 1 EVENING

Ebenezer . . . Hitherto hath the Lord helped us.—I SAM. 7:12.

I was brought low, and he helped me.—Blessed be the Lord, because he hath heard the voice of my supplications. The Lord is my strength and my shield; my heart trusted in him, and I am helped: therefore my heart greatly rejoiceth; and with my song will I praise him.

It is better to trust in the Lord than to put confidence in man. It is better to trust in the Lord than to put confidence in princes.—Happy is he that hath the God of Jacob for his help, whose hope is in the Lord his God.—He led them forth by the right way, that they might go to a city of habitation.—There failed not ought of any good thing which the Lord hath spoken unto the house of Israel; all came to pass.

When I sent you without purse, and scrip, and shoes, lacked ye any thing? And they said, Nothing.—Because thou hast been my help, therefore in the shadow of thy wings will I rejoice.
