(AII sing) The Lord's my shepherd
:11:11
I'll not want
:11:15
He makes me down to lie
:11:24
In pastures green he leadeth me
The quiet waters by.
:11:29
In pastures green
:11:34
He leadeth me
:11:40
The quiet waters by
:11:50
"He said, Thus saith the Lord,
:11:52
Because the Syrians have said,
the Lord is God of the hills,
:11:55
but he is not God of the valleys,
:11:57
therefore will I deliver all this
great multitude into thine hands
:12:00
and ye shall know
that I am the Lord."
:12:02
I Kings 20:28.
:12:05
Brethren, let not the heathen
shame you.
:12:09
The Syrians had already been defeated
in battle
:12:12
by such an imperial force
of Israelites whom they despised
:12:16
that they thought there was
something supernatural about it
:12:19
and ascribed their defeat
to the God of Israel.
:12:22
Now, if the Lord has brought
prosperity to you
:12:26
or if you have enjoyed success
in Christian service,
:12:30
take heed that you do not
lift up your head on high.
:12:35
For, kindred,
:12:37
the tendency of the human heart
towards pride is very strong,
:12:42
but we must always remember
that we are nothing more than tools
:12:46
in the hands of the Lord.
:12:48
We have been nothing more than
the scythes in the hands of God
:12:52
if we reap the corn,
:12:54
nothing more than the nets
if we have brought the fish to shore.
