SCHOOL INFLUENCES

SCHOOL INFLUENCES

School conditions and influences offer serious difficulties to young people, but the greater the opposing circumstances, the more will the “great salvation” be experienced. The Lord, in Revelation chapters 2 and 3, repeatedly says, “I know”. In many experiences young believers suffer keenly, but the circumstances are such that others cannot know and so cannot sympathise, but the Lord knows and makes Himself indispensable to us as coming in in His own way to cheer, giving us to understand that He knows and feels. David qualifies through conflict in secret, in which he proved Jehovah’s support and deliverance for the great position he occupied in the testimony later. The Lord takes us up to make us something for the testimony, as we see in Peter. You have been held at the crossway by loving care, and now the Lord is saying He has need of you: see Mark 11:4. That you may grow up in the knowledge of Him and be found useful in His service, will be our prayer for you.
