“Although the children of Israel at that time knew little enough concerning the resurrection, yet the Lord, the Holy Spirit, knew all about it; and He used it as a striking picture of the salvation of Israel from that national death that had come upon them. We may with equal accuracy see it in a vivid representation of the work of grace on the hearts of all those who are made alive into spiritual life by the power of divine grace. Men by nature are dead in sin till they hear the voice of God and feel the enlivening breath of the Spirit and are made to live according to the Word…He carries a demonstration of the truth within his own heart and tells of it to others with tearful eyes, ‘Oh,’ he says, ‘ there is no mistake about it. There is a merciful God, for I have obtained mercy. There is a refuge for sinners, for I have fled to it. There is pardon, for I have obtained it. There is rest, for I enjoy it. There is heaven, for I begin to hear its bells ringing in my heart.’“ -Charles Haddon Spurgeon

Hymn: “Living for Jesus”    
Living for Jesus, a life that is true,
Striving to please Him in all that I do:
Yielding allegiance, glad-hearted and free,
This is the pathway of blessing for me.
 
O Jesus, Lord and Savior, I give myself to Thee,
For Thou, in Thine atonement, didst give Thyself for me;
I own no other master, my heart shall be Thy throne,
My life I give, henceforth to live, O Christ, for Thee alone.
