Loves Strength.

If we love God supremely and our
neighbors as ourselves we are in the right
frame of mind to do all things that
Christians are required to do; but no one
in their own strength can fulfill the re-
quirements Of the two great command
ments. The Christ strength is necessary
at the beginning and through every hour
and every year in the Christian life.
How Is the supernatural strength OBJ
tanned? By>asking for it. The injunction
to all Is to ''be careful for nothing; but
in everything by prayer and supplication
with thanksgiving. let your requests be
made known unto God" He that asketh
in the right way and right spirit re-
ceiVeth.

Prayers Strength.

Prayer is the God-appointed means for
obtaining all needful strength.
Paul was pre-eminently man OF
prayer and he was able to say: II can
do all things through Christ which
strengtheneth me" Isaiah tells us that.
'rThey that wait upon the Lord shall
renew their strength; they shall mount
up with wings as eagles: they shall run
and not be weary; and they shall walk
and not faint"

evil things. The supernatural power Is
impaired to the Christian to enable him
to do all things thu are required at his
hands
What are the things required?
Religion directs that we love, honor
and worship God: that we read and rev.
erence His word; that we attend His
ordinances; that we engage in services
of prayer and praise to His name: that
we support and maintain His cause, and
that we love our fellC men--our enc
mics as well as our fr. ends: that We do
good unto all men: that we mortify the
body and bring into subiection the lusts
and evil propensities of our nature.
But who is sufficient for these things?
The power verse tells us who is SUI
ficient:
Il can do all things through Christ
which strengtheneth me-
Natural Strength.
All our strength, natural and spiritual,
comes from God. The powers Of mind
and body. the ability to think. speak or
move, are from Him. All that VIC desig-
nate as natural strength is gift from
the Creator. The Psamist said: God
hath spoken once, twice have l heard
this: That power bclonseth unto God"
BY that power the bodily and mental
strength is prescry ed. When He with
holds His hand force and vgor cease
