J eko1Jak, MS throne is m keaven;<br />

hi.s eyes behold, his euelids<br />

tru, the chi.ldren <strong>of</strong> men.<br />

-Ps. 11.- 4, AS.<br />

Nothing escapes <strong>Jehovah's</strong><br />

eye. He takes note <strong>of</strong> faithful,<br />

loyal service. Never does an<br />

act escape him. His eye never<br />

sleeps and he is ever watchful<br />

for the best interests <strong>of</strong> his<br />

children. Contentment and<br />

peace are the lot <strong>of</strong> those who<br />

live in the conscious condition<br />

that <strong>Jehovah's</strong> power is always<br />

available for their need and he<br />

is watchful for their best interests,<br />

believing that "God<br />

makes all his works co-operate<br />

In the course <strong>of</strong> one oj the<br />

days he was teaching, .•• on<br />

account <strong>of</strong> the crowd, they<br />

climbed up to the ,·ooj.-Luke<br />

5.- 17-19, NW.<br />

Christ Jesus is closely associated<br />

with Jehovah in the<br />

teaching work. He taught in<br />

the homes <strong>of</strong> the jleople when<br />

he was on earth. E'ollowing in<br />

Jesus' footsteps his early disciples<br />

"every day in the temple<br />

and from house to house they<br />

continued without letup teaching<br />

and declaring the good news<br />

about the Christ". (Acts 5: 42;<br />

20: 20, NW) True Christians<br />

Prepare ye the way <strong>of</strong> the<br />

people.-Isu. 62.- 10.<br />

Jesus' instructions to his<br />

disciples form a model outline<br />

for overseers in <strong>Jehovah's</strong> theocratic<br />

organization from then<br />

till now. Every Watch Tower<br />

Society branch servant, every<br />

district servant, every circuit<br />

servant and every company<br />

servant would do well to study<br />

this outline carefully and continually.<br />

It shows them how<br />

they should faithfully consider<br />

the Kingdom interests in the<br />

organization to which they are<br />

assigned to minister. They<br />

together for the good <strong>of</strong> those<br />

who love God, those who are<br />

the ones called according to his<br />

purpose". (Rom. 8: 28, NW)<br />

<strong>Jehovah's</strong> witnesses are the<br />

only ones in snch a happy condition,<br />

for they know the trnth<br />

and it has made them free.<br />

They study the Bible, talk <strong>of</strong><br />

it, and obey it, because they<br />

know it is God s Word. Their<br />

studies include reviews <strong>of</strong> the<br />

acts <strong>of</strong> faith and fearlessness<br />

<strong>of</strong> God's servants in ages past,<br />

and they believe that the same<br />

God who did wondrous works<br />

then is the same one we know<br />

and serve today.-Ps. 48: 14,<br />

AS. W 9/15<br />

today cling to the methods established<br />

by their Exemplar,<br />

Christ Jesus. They call at the<br />

homes <strong>of</strong> the people, presenting<br />

the gospel message. They<br />

<strong>of</strong>fer to conduct Bible stndies<br />

at the homes. Jehovah God<br />

blesses the home Bible study,<br />

and Christ prospers even such<br />

a small gathering, according<br />

to his promise. (Matt. 18: 20)<br />

Hence as the zealous witness<br />

conducts the home study in an<br />

orderly manner, the real Teachers,<br />

Jehovah and Christ, enlighten<br />

the eyes <strong>of</strong> understanding<br />

<strong>of</strong> the meek student and<br />

cause the divine purpose to<br />

unfold for the learner. W 4/1<br />

should plan their congregational<br />

meetings or other course<br />

<strong>of</strong> action to build up the weak<br />

points and to protect the concerns<br />

<strong>of</strong> <strong>Jehovah's</strong> organization<br />

committed to their charge.<br />

They should so conduct themselves<br />

as the divine Word instructs.<br />

The same planning and<br />

correct conduct would apply<br />

also to a Bible study held at<br />

the Kingdom Hall or in homes<br />

<strong>of</strong> interested people. The needs<br />

<strong>of</strong> the people bemg ministered<br />

to should be lovingly considered<br />

by the study conductor<br />

and the meeting be planned<br />

and held to do the most good.<br />
