Verses 6-12 - If Christ be ours, all things, one way or another, shall be for ou eternal good. The man who is a new creature in Christ, may rejoice in all the precious promisesGod has spoken in his holiness. His presen privileges, and the sanctifying influences of the Spirit, are sure earnests of heavenly glory. Davidrejoices in conquering the neighbouring nations, which had been enemies to Israel. The Israel of God are through Christ more than conquerors. Though sometimes the think that the Lord has cast them off, yet he will bring them into the strong city at last. Faith in the promise will assure us that it is ou Father's good pleasure to give us the kingdom: But we are not yet mad complete conquerors, and no true believer will abuse these truths to indulge sloth, or vainconfidence. Hope in God is the best principle of true courage, for what need those fear who have God on their side? All our victories are from him, and while those who willingly submit to ou anointed King shall share his glories, all his foes shall be put unde his feet __________________________________________________________________
