Words of Love
by C. H. Spurgeon
March 7
He has done it. Remember Joseph, Israel in Egypt,
Manasseh, Jeremiah, Peter, and many others. He can do it still. He breaks the bars
of brass with a word and snaps the fetters of iron with a look. He is doing it. In
a thousand places troubled ones are coming forth to light and enlargement. Jesus
still proclaims the opening of the prison to them that are bound. At this moment
doors are flying back and fetters are dropping to the ground.
He will delight to set you free, dear friend, if at this time you are mourning because
of sorrow, doubt, and fear. It will be joy to Jesus to give you liberty. It will
give Him as great a pleasure to loose you as it will be a pleasure to you to be loosed.
No, you have not to snap the iron hand: the LORD Himself will do it. Only trust Him,
and He will be your Emancipator. Believe in Him in spite of the stone walls or the
manacles of iron. Satan cannot hold you, sin cannot enchain you, even despair cannot
bind you if you will now believe in the LORD Jesus, in the freeness of His grace,
and the fullness of His power to save.
Defy the enemy, and let the word now before you be your song of deliverance; "Jehovah
looseth the prisoners."
