He shall redeem Israel from all his iniquities. Psalms 130:8. O the hope of Israel, the Saviour thereof in time of trouble. Jeremiah 14:8. In In wrath remember mercy Habakkuk 3:2.
Despair not O my soul, in any tribulation or conflict, as if it were impossible to overcome it. The all-healing word of God, contains advice and comfort for all cases. The Lord being thy helper in all adversities, and able to turn the sharpest afflictions into the greatest blessings, he would never smite or withhold something from thee, if he was not willing also to heal, and give thee something better in its place.
O Lord! I trust that thou wilt carry me through all difficulties. Though my misery and weakness were ever so great, yet there is nothing too great for thee. It is all one to thee, to help in great and little distresses; nay, the more I am surrounded with grief and weakness, the more wilt thou pity, spare, and nourish me, as a tender mother does the least of all her children, and the more there will be occasion for thee to show thy mighty salvation. The least is impossible to me, but the greatest and most difficult things, are possible and very easy to thee. The sharper and longer my distress and conflicts have been, the nearer, greater, and sweeter, I trust, will also be my victory and salvation, and I shall not be tempted above measure. Yes, the Lord will assist me to conquer all, even the most stubborn enemies.
There’s full redemption at his throne,
For sinners long enslaved;
The great Redeemer is his Son,
And Israel shall be saved.
