The Family Altar Audio Devotional - Day 182

Hear, O Lord, when I cry with my voice: have mercy also upon me, and answer me. When thou saidst, Seek ye my face; my heart said unto thee, Thy face, Lord, will I seek. Hide not thy face far from me; put not thy servant away in anger: thou hast been my help; leave me not, neither forsake me, O God of my salvation. (Psalm 27:7-9) 26 That was the sacrificial Lamb. The Blood was in the shape of the cross, on the lintel on the door post and was a sign that death could not come to that house. And when death tries to strike us, that separation from God, then the Blood is applied by the Lord Jesus Christ, and the death angel cannot take it. No sir, for we are free then. We are in Christ and led by the Spirit of Christ: led. Many men and nearly all men… I’ll say all men, that’s ever amounted to very much in this life has been men and women who have been led to do the gallant things they’ve done by the Spirit of God. I think tonight one of the greatest generals that America has ever had was Stonewall Jackson. I believe there’s never been a general that’s like him since Joshua. Why was it he done that? He was a gallant man. He was a man of prayer. He—he closed up everything, even made all of his generals, and everything, don’t even eat breakfast, or nothing, and lay on their face and seek God. Yes, sir. General Grant, or, I’m… Stonewall Jackson, I’m thinking of instead of Grant… 27 General Grant was a drunk, alcoholic, but Stonewall Jackson was a Christian gentleman, and he loved the Book of Joshua. And he wanted to be like Joshua, and God give him the desires of his heart. And one day he was asked, “Why is it, Mister Jackson, that you can stand in such opposition, so many men against you, and you take a little handful and stand?” He was a very timid sort of a fellow, little short fellow, kind of blue-eyed and dark hair. He kicked his boots on the dust, and he said, “I never put a glass of water to my mouth without thanking Almighty God.” There’s where it comes from. That’s right. There’s where the secret lays: trusting God, being led by the Spirit of God. God speaks to man; man hears His Voice. 56-0723 - "Led By The Spirit Of God" Rev.
