THE PEOPLES FORUM.
OUR DEFENDERS.

Long ago very good man was in
peritous extremity. A strong enemy
was against him. 1t looked as if the
good man must be captured But the
enemy did not count on divine help be-
ing at hand. Babel was built to frus-
trate Gods plan. Isaac tried to out
wit the Lord by giving JACOB the bless
ings over Esau. Jonah tried it when
he decided to go to Europe instead of
Nineveh. Herod tried to make the ad-
vent of Christ of no avail on the earth
by the massacre of the infants. Men
are trying all the while to hood wink
God by processing to serve Him while
they offer formal and outward obedi-
ence. But you can't fool the Lord.
Elisha went to Dothan as a place of
refuge, but an army slipped in one
night and surrounded it, But one with
God is always majority. Elisha one
weapon "all prayer" was sufficient and
the mountain was full of horses and
chariots OF fire. Joseph of old, went
from Dothan, through prison to a
throne. The horses and chariots OF fire
were more than the mightiest army.
they that are for US (Christians) are
more than they that are with them
tour enemies). God is ever present
with His people. When Jonathan and
his armor bearer faced a garrison of
the Philistines, he said. There is no
restraint to the Lori to save by many
or by few" Asa went against an army
of thousand, thousand and three hun
dred chariots, but he went with the
prayer, Lord 1t is nothing with thee
to help, whether with many or with
them that have nc power"
When the disciples go forth in the
world it IS with the Masters assurance,
81 am with you" To the weakest He
says. 81 will not leave you, nor forsake
you. eve may boldly ssy, the Lord is
my helper, | will not fear what man
shall do unto me-" His assistance is
assured. The Holy Spirit is with US.
He abides with US. He will never leave
His people. We abide in Christ when
we keep His commandments. The COM
mandments are included in these two,
Believe on Christ and love one an
other" You see that faith worketh
by love-"
Angels are with us. In the presence
of the Lord, there vast assembly of
beings of higher order than we, yet
lower than God. They act as guards OF
Gods people in all their ways. Jacob
when on his way to Haran saw angels
ascending and descending from heaven
on ladder. This suggests mediation
by Christ the living way. ''The ange
of the Lord encampeth round about
them that fear Him and delivereth
them" In. one night an angel of the
Lord slew lS5, 900 Assyrians at the Civ.
ing of the law on Mt. Siani. There
were myriads of them present. John
in the Apocalypse, gives them a large
share in all the judgments that should
befall the earth, and make them the
dispensers of the blessings and of the
wrath of God.
Creation also is with US. The star:
fought for Sisera. The Lord made the
host of Assyria to hear the noise Of
chariots and host so that the army
fled in the twilight. Samuel had Israe
The Republican. [volume] (Oakland, Md.) 1877-current, 1919-07-31

gathered at Mlzpeh and while he was
offering burnt offering and praying
the Lord Numbered against them with
a great thunder and they were smltten
before Israel
We may go further and affirm with
out fear of successful contradiction that
the providences of Cod though they
are mysterious and trying, are with US.
Everything seemed to be against
Joseph for time, but the Lord was
preparing him to be a saviour for his
people in a time of famine. He realiz-
ed this when he said, guilty and detect
e1 brethren, 'be not grieved, nor angry
with yourselves. that ye sold me hither,
for God did send me before you to pre-
serve life. " HE maketh the wrath OF
man to praise Him and resrraineth the
remainder of that wrath" when q
mans ways please the Lord He makett
even his enemies to be at peace with
Him. "A mans heart deviseth his way
but the Lord directeth his steps. -
The lot is cast into the lap; but the
disposal thereof is of the Lord" Thi!
being true nothing can befall US with
out his permission.

never understood him. Godfrey was
ambitious, ambitious as she was. She
would be his wife; she would see tho
cities of the world with him, the wei
coined wife of Godfrey; she would
share the plaudits his wonderful voice
won.
His eyes were on her now, she knew,

Wandering into the night, Godfrey
passed down the river, singing Is

great audiences were calling to him
To him, the moon-hooded levec, the

afternoon in the ramada.
He gave for encore ballad long
forgotten; he had pulled it bacl, from
the cobwebs OF two decades; lie had
made Ii his own.
"But, my darling, you viii be,
Ever young and fair to me"
1t came, the soaring voice, to Tom
Hardin, outside Gertys tent ON his
lonely cot. EIe knew that song. Dis.
dained by his wife, a pretty figure
man cuts! If his wife can't stand
him, who can? He wasn't good enough
for her. He was rough. His life had
kept him from fitting himself to her
taste. She needed people who could
talk like Richard sing like Godfrey.
People. other people, might miscon-
Strue her preferences. He knew they
Were not flirtations; she needed her
kind. She would always keep straight;
she was straight as a whip. Life was
AS hard for her as it was for him; he
could feel sorry for her; his pity was
divided between the two of them the
husband, the wife, both lonely in their
own way.
On the other side Of the canvas
walls, Gerry Hardin lay listening to
the message meant for her The tickle

in woman, he had declared, fondling
her hair He had tried to coax her
into pledges. pledges which were also

Godfrey, singing to Gerty Hardin
her tent. too, was listening.
'Darling. yQu will be,
Ever youn@s nd fair to met"
SO that IS tho miracle, that wild
rush of certain feeling. Yesterday,
doubling, tomorrow, more doubts-but
tonight. The song, the night isolated
them. herself and Richard into a
world OF their own. Life with him on
any terms she wanted.
