“The Lord reigneth, let the earth rejoice.” — Psalm 97:1
Causes for disquietude there are none so long as this blessed sentence is true. On earth the Lord’s power as readily controls the rage of the wicked as the rage of the sea; His love as easily refreshes the poor with mercy as the earth with showers. Majesty gleams in flashes of fire amid the tempest’s horrors, and the glory of the Lord is seen in its grandeur in the fall of empires, and the crash of thrones. In all our conflicts and tribulations, we may…
behold the hand of the divine King.
“God is God; He sees and hears
All our troubles, all our tears.
Soul, forget not, ‘mid thy pains,
God o’er all for ever reigns.”
In hell, evil spirits own, with misery, His undoubted supremacy. When
permitted to roam abroad, it is with a chain at their heel; the bit is in the
mouth of behemoth, and the hook in the jaws of leviathan. Death’s darts
are under the Lord’s lock, and the grave’s prisons have divine power as
their warder. The terrible vengeance of the Judge of all the earth makes
fiends cower down and tremble, even as dogs in the kennel fear the
hunter’s whip.
“Fear not death, nor Satan’s thrusts,
God defends who in Him trusts;
Soul, remember, in thy pains,
God o’er all for ever reigns.”
In heaven none doubt the sovereignty of the King Eternal, but all fall on
their faces to do Him homage. Angels are His courtiers, the redeemed His
favourites, and all delight to serve Him day and night. May we soon reach
the city of the great King!
“For this life’s long night of sadness
He will give us peace and gladness.
Soul, remember, in thy pains,
God o’er all for ever reigns.”
