kings shall shut their mouths at him; for that which<br />

which they had not heard shall they consider."<br />

There is true honor among those who have the<br />

love of God in their hearts. Our object in working<br />

for the Master should be that His name may be<br />

glorified in the conversion of sinners. Those who<br />

labor to gain applause are not approved by God.<br />

The Lord expects His servants to work from a<br />

different motive.<br />

There are many who will spend <strong>and</strong> be spent to<br />

win souls to Christ. In obedience to the great<br />

commission, they will go forth to work for the<br />

Master. Under the ministration of angels ordinary<br />

men will be moved by the Spirit of God to warn<br />

people in the highways <strong>and</strong> byways. Humble men,<br />

who do not trust in their gifts, but who work in<br />

simplicity, trusting always in God, will share in the<br />

joy of the Saviour as their persevering prayers<br />

being souls to the cross. We would say to them, Go<br />

forth, brethren; do your best humbly <strong>and</strong> sincerely,<br />
