About this Item

Print on Demand. This book reflects on the relationship between human endeavor and divine assistance in the context of spreading one's faith. The author draws from the Book of Isaiah to expound on this relationship, suggesting that although the human instrumentality of faith may often seem insignificant, it is through faith that one accesses divine power to accomplish great things. Through a detailed analysis of the biblical text, the author contends that human inadequacy and God's power are not mutually exclusive, but rather work in tandem to achieve extraordinary outcomes. The book emphasizes the need for unwavering faith in God's promises and the availability of His power, which ultimately leads to the triumph of faith over adversity. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format. In rare cases, an imperfection in the original, such as a blemish or missing page, may be replicated in the book.

About this title

Synopsis

Faith, power, and mission: discover how divine help turns weak tools into world-changing deeds.

In this 1851 sermon, the author argues that true success in Christian work comes from God's power working through weak instruments. He contrasts human schemes with a divine plan that uses a worm-like instrument to thresh mountains, inviting readers to trust in Providence over worldly strength. The address situates the foreign missions effort as a test case for faith, urging believers to rely on promises and the living Christ rather than mere resources.

Grounded in scripture and historical example, the message invites personal and collective reflection on courage, humility, and the active life of faith. It calls readers to maintain a sober view of human limits while embracing the vast, promised resources of God to advance the gospel in the world.

contrasts worldly power with divine power and the value of faith over fortune or force
explains how belief in God's promises activates spiritual action and resilience
applies these ideas to the work of foreign missions and church planning
encourages readers to pursue bold, prayerful engagement rather than prideful reliance on means

Ideal for readers of mission history, nineteenth-century evangelical thought, and faith-based approaches to social action.
