Exodus 36:1-38; Psalm 89:1-18; Acts 21:17-40
There was a little city with few men in it; and a great king came against it, besieged it, and built great snares around it. Now there was found in it a poor wise man, and he by his wisdom delivered the city. Yet no one remembered that same poor man. Ecclesiastes 9:14-15 NKJV
This fascinating parable is one that we can relate to. We were in this world, a little city, besieged by a great king, our adversary — the devil. Then He came, our Lord Jesus Christ, who was rich, yet for our sakes became poor, and delivered us from so great a death! (2 Cor. 8:9; 1:10). No one remembered that same poor man, but we do. —Rex Trogdon
Saviour, we remember Thee! Thy deep woe and agony,
All Thy suff’ring on the tree, Saviour, we adore Thee! —Samuel Francis
