In April 1943 during the Second World War the Scottish pastor...

In the day when I cried out, you answered me, and made me bold with strength in my soul.

The LORD will perfect that which concerns me; your mercy, o LORD, endures for ever.

Psalm 138:3.8.

In April 1943 during the Second World War the Scottish pastor Donald Caskie, who lived in France, was taken prisoner for helping allied soldiers to flee from France.

He later wrote about his imprisonment: "It was an extremely humiliating experience that could easily make a person despair. But my knowledge of the Bible preserved me." His Bible was, in fact, confiscated, but he said: "I had it in my heart and in my memory; so it sustained my faith and my mental balance."

In another prison Caskie saw the names of several prisoners engraved on the walls of his cell. So he added: "Thus says the LORD: "Fear not, for I have redeemed you; I have called you by your name; you are mine. When you pass through the waters, I will be with you; and through the rivers, they shall not overflow you. When you walk through the fire, you shall not be burned, nor shall the flame scorch you" . With these words he also thought of other prisoners and prayed that God would grant them peace.

In yet another jail an inmate told Caskie his story: "I was about to take my life to avoid torture, when I discovered words on the wall that stopped me and gave me comfort and strength. Now I am no longer afraid. I shall never forget these words."

They were the verses that Caskie had engraved in the wall. His prayer had been heard. The Word of God had once again proved its power.

Today's reading: Nehemiah 2:1-8 · Proverbs 10:22-32

LEADERSHIP BY EXAMPLE

Read:
.
The essence of the anointing of God in your life is not for show but for service. Service is a fundamental aspect of leadership. The moment you remove service from your life, there is no room for good leadership. People should see the good example you are showing and praise God for your life....More
