“What fellowship hath righteousness with unrighteousness, and what communion hath light with darkness?” (2 Cor. 6:14¹⁴Be ye not unequally yoked together with unbelievers: for what fellowship hath righteousness with unrighteousness? and what communion hath light with darkness? (2 Corinthians 6:14)).

God’s dear children are suffering damage by association with the world. This is at the root of want of blessing in the gospel. Many are parting company with their Lord, and going in paths in which they know He is not, and cannot be, with them.

Then take this precious promise with you, and go forward in the confidence that He is with you,

“Greater is He that is in you than he that is in the world” (1 John 4:4⁴Ye are of God, little children, and have overcome them: because greater is he that is in you, than he that is in the world. (1 John 4:4)).

As you continue in the place of subjection to Him and His will as given in the Scriptures, He will give you the victory over all your enemies. As you thus submit yourself to Him you shall prove in your experience that His will is “good, acceptable, and perfect.”
