"The Eternal GOD Is Your Refuge, And Underneath Are The Everlasting Arms!"

The Omnipotent SAVIOR!
(James Smith, "The Love of CHRIST! The Fullness, 
Freeness, and Immutability of the Savior's Grace Displayed!")


The love of JESUS for HIS people is armed 
with divine power, for the execution of its 
purposes and the fulfillment of its designs. 
It will perform all its good pleasure--
but in the most judicious and prudent way. 

Divine love will not be conquered! 

None can effectually resist its sweet 
omnipotence when it is exerted; nor 
are any disposed to find fault, when 
they feel its omnipotent sweetness. 

CHRIST'S omnipotent love for HIS people . . .
  reaches its objects, when at the greatest distance from GOD; 
  raises them from the pit of destruction; 
  plucks them as brands from the fire;
  delivers them from the power of darkness;
  and translates them into HIS blessed eternal kingdom! 

CHRIST'S omnipotent love for HIS people . . .
restores the backslidden believer from his wanderings; 
extricates the erroneous believer from the labyrinths of error;
preserves the tempest-tossed believer from dashing 
      upon the rocks of destruction;
supports the heavenly traveler in his rugged way; and 
guides the pilgrims of Zion by its strength, 
     to HIS holy habitation. 

CHRIST'S omnipotent love 
for HIS people never varies--
and it cannot fail! 

Every object of the dying love of JESUS 
is addressed in the language of inspiration, 

"The eternal GOD is your refuge, and 
underneath are the everlasting arms!" 
(Deuteronomy 33:27a) 

Weakness may be felt, and 
the soul may be ready to faint--
but divine love says, 

"I will strengthen you! I will help you! 
Yes, I will uphold you with the right 
hand of MY righteousness."  (Isaiah 41:10)

We may come up out of the wilderness, 
leaning upon the omnipotent arm of a 
SAVIOR'S love (Song of Songs 8:5), 
and exclaim, 

"Though an army besiege me, my heart 
will not fear. GOD is my refuge and strength, 
my ever-present help in times of trouble. 
Therefore I will not fear, though the earth 
gives way and the mountains fall into 
the heart of the sea, though its waters 
roar and foam and the mountains quake 
with their surging--
for the LORD Almighty is with me, and 
The Omnipotent SAVIOR is my refuge!" 

Happy, unspeakably happy--
is the soul who is saved by 
the omnipotent love of JESUS! 

Nothing shall by any means hurt it, while it . . .
  follows in the footsteps of the lambs,
  feeds among HIS flock,
  and walks by HIS holy precepts. 

All the attributes of Deity surround it--
all the resources of eternity are open to it--
and all that GOD possesses, stands 
engaged to make it blessed! 

Trust then in JESUS forever, 
for in the love of JESUS 
is everlasting strength!
