Morning Line: The Bridge
“When you walk, your steps will not be hindered,
And when you run, you will not stumble” Proverbs 4:12 (NKJ)
The Lord never builds a bridge of faith except under the feet of the faith-filled traveler. If He builds the bridge a rod ahead, it would not be a bridge of faith. That which is of sight is not of faith.
There is a self-opening gate which is sometimes used in country roads. It stands fast and firm across the road as a traveler approaches it. If he stops before he gets to it, it will not open. But if he will drive right at it, his wagon wheels press the springs below the roadway, and the gate swings back to let him through. He must push right on at the closed gate, or it will continue to be closed.
This illustrates the way to pass every barrier on the road of duty. Whether it is a river, a gate, or a mountain, all the child of Jesus has to do is to go for it. If it is a river, it will dry up when you put your feet in its waters. If it is a gate, it will fly open when you are near enough to it, and are still pushing on. If it is a mountain, it will be lifted up and cast into a sea when you come squarely up, without flinching, to where you thought it was.
Is there a great barrier across your path of duty just now? Just go for it, in the name of the Lord, and it won’t be there.
–Henry Clay Trumbull (excerpts from Streams in the Desert, L.B. Cowman)
Press on and you will find the promised lamp to you feet for your journey through the wilderness. There will be guides and wayside inns along the road. You will find food, clothes and friends at every stage of the journey, to cross you bridge and have victory and testimony of the goodness of God
Isaiah 41:10 “ do not fear…I am your God… I will uphold you with my victorious right hand”
