"PROVIDENCE" Is Simply GOD At Work.

GOD at work!

(James Smith, "Nothing Too Hard for God!" 1864)

"There is nothing too hard for YOU!" 
Jeremiah 32:17

There is nothing too hard for GOD to EFFECT.

"I know that YOU can do everything."
(Job 42:2)

"Is anything too hard for ME,
says the LORD?" (Jeremiah 32:27)

"HE does according to HIS will
among the armies of Heaven,
and the inhabitants of the earth."
(Daniel 4:35b)

"HE works all things after the counsel 
of HIS own will." (Ephesians 1:11c)

Nothing is too hard for GOD--

no change in providence, however it may 

appear improbable, or impossible to us. 

HE could bring water out of the flinty rock. 

HE could supply quail to satisfy the wants, 

and gratify the lusts of HIS people in the desert. 

HE could feed Elijah for twelve months by 

ravens, and for two years and a half more 

by a handful of meal in a barrel, and

a little oil in the widow's cruse.

HE could inundate Samaria with plenty--

in the midst of famine and fearful desolation.

If HE wills it . . .

  the fire shall not burn the three Hebrew youth,

  nor the lions injure Daniel,

  nor death hold Lazarus in the tomb.

What HE has done--

HE can do; for HE is immutable.

And if necessary for the glory

of HIS name--

HE will do it, for HE will not

allow HIS name to be polluted.

"Providence" is simply GOD at work--

at work for . . .

  the accomplishment of HIS decrees,

  the fulfillment of HIS promises,

  the manifestation of HIS character, 

and the present and eternal welfare 

of HIS people.

HE can . . .

give whatever we need,

do whatever we need, and

glorify HIMSELF in giving to us, 

and working for us!
