PRAYER a Tower of STRENGTH.

day morning in the Presby terrain
church from the text: awake,
Awake. Oh Zion, put on thy strength"
Isaiah LlI:1. The speaker said: 1t is
a memorial e time in the life of ma
ton or an individual when they first
discover their power. Jenny Lind
when on that memorable March q, 1888,
found that her power was in her voice,
said, that was my second birthday
1t is when the church of God finds out
that its power is not IN wealth, rank,
numbers, eloquence, but in prayer,
faith, spirituality, truth, unity-it is
then it becomes invincible. Prayer is
as silent as the dew, but as mighty as
the storm, trackless as gravitation,
but resistless as the fiat of the al
mighty. By prayer, John Knox plac-
ed a lever under Scotland that moved
it from end to end. Baxter prayed till
by praying his breath stained his study
walls. To prove its power let us put
in the witness stand Abraham, Ezekiel
jeremiah, Elijah, Paul, Peter, 10000
mothers who have prayed their wan
dering boys back to God-though they
were at the ends of the earth. Ask the
sick room, the Galilean fishing smacks,
