DECEMBER 12 EVENING

Wherefore criest thou unto me? speak unto the children of Israel, that they go forward.—EXO. 14:15.

Be of good courage, and let us behave ourselves valiantly for our people, and for the cities of our God: and let the Lord do that which is good in his sight.—We made our prayer unto our God, and set a watch against them day and night.

Not every one that saith unto me, Lord, Lord, shall enter into the kingdom of heaven; but he that doeth the will of my Father which is in heaven.—If any man will do his will, he shall know of the doctrine, whether it be of God.—Then shall we know, if we follow on to know the Lord.

Watch and pray, that ye enter not into temptation.—Watch ye, stand fast in the faith, quit you like men, be strong.—Not slothful in business; fervent in spirit; serving the Lord.

Strengthen ye the weak hands, and confirm the feeble knees. Say to them that are of a fearful heart, Be strong, fear not.
