Psalms 91:15 - Homilies By S. Conway

The response of God to his people.

I. WHAT THIS RESPONSE IS .

1 . That God will answer prayer. But on this, note:

2 . He will be with them in trouble. God is always with us; but in our trouble he is more especially with us. This is shown sometimes by his providential help, or by his grace sustaining us .

3 . He will deliver and honour. See this in such histories as that of Joseph.

II. WHAT FOLLOWS FROM IT . That to the man of God the following things are impossible:

1 . Disappointment ; because God will answer.

2 . Loneliness ; for God is ever with him, and especially in trouble.

3 . Disgrace ; for how can that be to those whom he honours?

4 . Defeat ; for God will deliver.—S.C.
