These words have been a staff in the hand of believers throughout all ages; and they will be so to you, if you lean upon them. First of all, let us trace the history of this promise. You will notice that it is not put into this epistle for the first time—it is a borrowed promise. First of all, I think, it is borrowed from what God said to Jacob in Genesis 28:15: 'Behold, I am with thee, and will keep thee in all places whither thou goest, and will bring thee again into this land; for I will not leave thee until I have done that which I have spoken to thee of. 'There is another place from which I think it is borrowed: 'And David said to Solomon his son, Be strong and of a good courage, and do it; fear not, nor be dismayed: for the LORD God, even my God, will be with thee: He will not fail thee, nor forsake thee..., (I Chronicles 28:20). Now you see, here is the promise again—'He will not fail thee, nor forsake thee.' There is still another place where the same staff is put into a believer's hand: 'There shall not any man be able to stand before thee all the days of thy life: As I was with Moses, so will I be with thee: I will not fail thee, nor forsake thee' (Joshua 1: 5)." -Robert Murray McCheyne-----------------------------------------"Daily Bread" - The Advantages & Directions-"Daily Bread" - (Yearly) Bible Reading Guide-Who is using the M'chyne Bible Reading guide
