Article: When I am Anxious

Prayer by Matthew Henry
”We must give thanks for his gracious design and contrivance of man’s redemption and salvation, when he man was lost and undone by sin.

O how wonderfully did the goodness and loving kindness of God our Savior appear! He saved us, not because of works done by us in righteousness, but according to his own mercy  (Tit 3:4-5)   We had destroyed ourselves, but in you, and you only, was our help. (Hos 13:9)

When the ransom of the life was so costly as that it could never suffice, and truly no man could ransom another or give to God the price of his life, (Ps 49:7-8) ....then you were pleased to find a ransom, that we might be delivered from going down into the pit.  (Job 33:24) 

When we were doomed to die and were like water spilled on the ground, which cannot be gathered up again, then did you devise means so that the banished ones might not remain outcasts. (2 Sam 14:14) 

When you did not spare the angels who sinned, but cast them into hell, (2 Pet 2:4) ....you said concerning the rage of mankind, “Do not destroy it, for there is a blessing in it.”  (Isa 65:8)  Herein appears the secret and hidden wisdom of God, which God decreed before the ages for his people’s glory. (1 Cor 2:7)
