He will win at last

SUMMARY: Sometimes we face overwhelming challenges, but we must trust in God's promise of victory in the end. We need to persevere and trust in our Captain, Jesus Christ. Victory is assured.

Some of us have been like the tribe of Gad. For a time our adversaries were too numerous for us, and they came against us as a troop. Yes, and for a time they attacked us and showed great exultation because of their temporary victory. With that they only demonstrated that the first part of the family inheritance is really ours, because the people of Christ, as Dan, you will be attacked by a troop. Being rushed is very painful, and we would have despaired, had we not believed by faith, in the second part of our father's blessing, "he will rush at last." "All is well that ends well," said the poet of the world; and told the truth. A war is to be judged, not by early successes or setbacks, but by what happens "at last." The Lord will give victory to truth and justice "at last"; And, as Mr. Bunyan says, that means forever, for nothing can happen after the end.

What we need is a patient perseverance in doing good, and a quiet trust in our glorious Captain. Christ, our Lord Jesus, wants to teach us His holy art of turning our faces like a flint to complete our work or to go through our suffering until we can say: "It is finished." Hallelujah. Victory! Victory! We believe in the promise. "He will rush at last."
