January 21: It is God that girdeth me with strength; and maketh my way perfect. For by Thee I have run through a troop; and by my God have I leaped over a wall. Psa. 18:32,29

If any man attempts to do this in his own strength, he must surely fail; for the fiery trial that is to try every one will prove too much for the mind of the flesh; but God who worketh in the consecrated to will and to do His good pleasure, will so fortify and equip those who depend upon His grace, that, with the Psalmist, they can say, (the above text); and with Paul, "I can do all things through Christ, who strengtheneth me."
