This is the day that the Lord would say to thy heart again and again: Be renewed, O house of the Lord. Be ye strong, ye that bear My name. Rise up and possess the things that are before thee, for the victories that you have won are but the beginning. Let not hope be deferred and the heart say, “Let my faith be dashed to the ground,” but rather let your heart be set on the Lord. The Lord shall sustain thee this day and He shall feed thee with that which is necessary for thee. He shall strengthen thee, He shall gird thee in the inner man, He shall give thee a double portion of His Spirit; and instead of feeling the futility of that thing round about thee, your hope and expectation shall be renewed in the Lord.
