Help from the sanctuary'


Back to Man's religion & God's religion 5


"May the Lord answer you when you are in 
distress—may the name of the God of Jacob 
protect you. May he send you help from the 
sanctuary
 and grant you support from Zion." 
Psalm 20:1-2

When the soul has to pass through the trying hour 
of temptation, it needs help from the sanctuary
All other help leaves the soul just where it found it. 

Help is sent from the sanctuary because 
his name has been from all eternity . . .
registered in the Lamb's book of life,
engraved upon the palms of His hands,
borne on His shoulder,
and worn on His heart. 

Communications of life and grace from the sanctuary
produce spirituality and heavenly-mindedness. The 
breath of heaven in his soul . . .
draws his affections upward,
weans him from earth, and 
makes him a pilgrim and a sojourner here below, 
"looking for a city which has foundations, whose 
builder and maker is God."
