EVENING DEVOTION by James Smith
The Redeemer is the nearest of kin.
No one is so nearly related to us, or by so many
and various ties, as the Lord Jesus; and he is our Redeemer.
He gave his holy life a ransom for us.
He sent his Holy Spirit to rescue us from the
hands of our spiritual enemies.
He will exert his almighty power to raise us from
the dead, and so complete our redemption.
What he undertook, he can accomplish, for he is
string.
What he has promised he will perform, for he is
faithful.
We shall therefore be completely delivered from Satan,
who held us captive; from sin which tyrannised over us; from death, which is an
enemy to us; and from hell, which we justly deserved.
Our Redeemer is strong, therefore let us place
confidence in him; let us look to him alone for deliverance from our foes and
fears; let us never dishonour him by supposing that he will allow our enemies
to triumph over us.
He graciously quickened us when dead in
trespasses and sins, and he will perfect that which concerneth us, for he will
not forsake the work of his own hands.
Our Redeemer is strong, the Lord of Hosts is his
name, and he will thoroughly plead our cause.

Jeremiah 50:34
Their Redeemer is strong; the LORD of hosts is
his name:
he shall thoroughly plead their cause,
that he may give rest to the
land,
and disquiet the inhabitants of Babylon.
Jesus our Lord in thee
We a Redeemer have,
Strong to set thy people free.
Omnipotent to save.
