Out of thia ctranso scene o Bible
JmC3 Dr. Talmago , la his ocrnca to-
Cay , dravra rcmarkablo lessens of good
cheer and triumph. Hla subject is :
"Wresilliijr with the Supernatural , "
and the tcrt : Genesis 22:25 , 2C : "And
when ho caw that bo prevailed not
against him , ho touched the hollow of
hlc thigh ; and the hello ? . ' of Jacob'3
thigh wa3 cut of jciat as ho wrestled
• with him. And he said , Let me go ,
for the day brcakcth. And ho said , I
will not let thco go oroogt tiou bless
me. "
There is a clcud of dust from a travel
ing herd of cattle , and sheep , and
goats , and camols. They arc the prcs-
cent that Jacob sends to gain the good
will of his offeadod brother. That
night Jacob halts by the brook Jab-
hok. But there is no rest for the
weary man. No shining ladder to let
ihe angels down into ais dream ; but
a severe struggle , that lasts until morn
ing , with an unknown visitor. They
each try to throw the ether. The un
known visitor , to reveal his superior
power , by a touch wrenches Jacob's
thigh-bone from it3 socket , perhaps
maiming him for life. As on the morn
ing sky the clusters of purple cloud Se-
gin to ripen , Jacob sees it is an angel
with whom he has been contending ,
and not one of his brother's coadju
tors. "Let mo go , " cries the Angel ,
lifting himself up into Increasing light ,
"the day hreaketh. "
You see , in the first place , that God
allows good people sometimes to get
into a terrible struggle. Jacob was a
good man ; but here he is left alone
in the midnight to wrestle with a tre
mendous influence by the brook Jab-
bok. For Joseph , a pit ; for Daniel , a
wild beast den ; for David , dethrone
ment and exile ; for John the Baptist ,
a wilderness diet and the executioner's
axe ; for Peter , a prison ; for Paul ,
shipwreck ; for John , desolate Patmos ;
for Christ , the cross. For whom the
racks , the gibbets , the prisons , the
thumbscrews ? For the sons and
daughters of the Lord Almighty. Some
one said to a Christian reformer , "The
world is against you. " "Then , " he
replied , "I am against the world. "
I will to further , and say that every
Christian has his struggle. With
financial misfortune some of you have
had the midnight wrestle. Red-hot
disasters have dropped into your store
from loft to cellar. What you bought
you could not cell. Whom you trusted ,
fled. The help you expected would
not come. Some giant panic , with long
arms , and grip like death , took hold
of you in awful wrestle , from which
ycu have not yet escaped , and it is
uncertain whether it will throw you ,
or you will throw it. Here is another
soul , in struggle with some bad appe
tite. He knew not how stealthily it
was growing upon him. One hour he
woke up. He said , "For the sake of
my soul , of my family , of my children ,
and of my God , I must stop this ! " And
behold , he found himself alone , by the
brook of Jabbok ; and it was midnight.
That evil appetite seized upon him ,
and he seized upon it ; and oh. the horror
ror of the conflict ! When once a bad
habit hath roused itself up to destroy
a man , and the man has sworn that ,
by the help of the eternal God. he will
destroy it , all heaven draws itself out
in long line of light , to look from
above , and all hell stretches itself in
myrmidons of spite to look up from
beneath. I have seen men rally them
selves for a struggle ; and they have
bitten their lip and clenched their fist ,
and cried with a blood-red earnestness ,
and a rain of scalding tears , "God help
me ! "
From a wrestle with habit , I have
seen men fall back defeated. Calling
for no help , but relying on their own
resolutions , they have come into the
struggle ; and for a time it seemed as
if they were getting the upper hand of
their habit ; but that habit rallied again
its infernal power , and lifted the soul
from its standing , and with a force bor
rowed from the pit , hurled it into outer
darkness.
But , thank God , I have often seen a
better termination than this. I have
seen men prepare themselves for such
a wrestling. They laid hold of God's
help as they went into combat The
giant habit , regaled by the cup of many
dissipations , came out strong and de
fiant. They clenched. There were the
writhiggs and distortions of a fearful
struggle. But the old giant began to
waver ; and at last in the midnight
alone , with none but God to witness ,
by the brook-Jabbok , the giant fell ;
and the triumphant wrestler broke the
darkness with the cry , "Thanks be un
to God , who giveth us the victorj- ,
through our Lord Jesus Christ. "
There is a widow's heart , that first
was desolated by bereavement , and
since , by the anxieties and trials that
came in the support of a family. It is
a sad thing to see a man contending
for a livelihood under disadvantages ;
but to see a delicate woman , with help
less little ones at her back , fighting
the giants of poverty and sorrow , is
more affecting. It was a humble home ;
and passers-by knew not that within
those four walls were displays of cour
age more admirable than that of Han
nibal crossing the Alps , or in the Pass
of Thermopylae , or at Balaklava , where
"into the jaws of death rode the six
hundred. " These heroes had the whole
world to cheer them on ; hut there were
none to applaud the struggle in that
humble home. She fought for bread ,
for clothing , for fire , for shelter , with
aching head , and weak side , and ex
hausted strength , through the long
night by the brook Jabbok. Could it
be that none would give her help ? Had
God forgotten to be gracious ? No ! con
tending soul. The midnigiht air is full
of wings , coming to the rescue. She
tsars it cow. in the sough of the night •

wind , in the ripple of the brook Jab
bok , the promise made bo long ago ,
ringing down the sky : "Thy fatherless
children , I will preserve thorn alive ;
and let viy widows trust in mo ! " Some
cac said to a very poor woman , "Kow
is it that in such distress ycu keep
cheerful ? " She said , "I do it by what
I call cross-prayers : When I had my
rent to pay , and nothing to pay it with ,
and broad to buy and nothing to buy
it with , I used to Bit down and cry.
But now I do not get discouraged. If
I go along the street , when I come tea
a corner of the street , I say , 'The Lord
help me ! ' I then go on until I come
to another crossing of the street , and
again I say , 'The Lord help me ! * And
so I utter a prayer at every crossing ;
and since I have got into the habit of
saying these cross-prayers , I have been
able to keep up my courage. "
Learn again from this subject , that
people sometimes are surprised to find
cut that what they have been strug
gling with in the darkness is really an
"angel of blessing. " Jacob found in
the morning that this strange person
age was not an enemy but a God-des
patched messenger to promise prosperi
ty for him and for his children. And
so , many a man , at the close of his
trial , has found out that ho has been
trying to throw down his own . bless
ing. If you are a Christian man I will
go back in your history and find that
the grandest things that ever hap
pened to you have been your trials.
Nothing short of scourging , imprison
ment , and shipwreck , could have made
Paul what he was. When David was
fleeing through the wilderness , pur
sued by his own son , he was being pre
pared to become the sweet singer of
Israel. The pit and the dungeon were
the best schools at which Joseph ever
graduated. The hurricane that upset
the tent , and killed Job's children ,
prepared the man of Uz to be the sub
ject of the magnificent poem that has
astounded the ages. There is no way
to get the wheat out of the straw butte
to thresh it. There is no way to purify
the gold but to burn it. Look at the
people who have always had it their
own way. They are proud , discontent
ed , useless , and unhappy. If you want
to find cheerful folks , go among those
who have been purified by the fire. Af
ter Rossini had rendered "WilliamTell"
the five hundredth time , a company of
musicians came under his window in
Paris and serenaded him. They put
upon his brow a golden crown of laurel
leaves ! But , amid all the applause and
enthusiasm Rossini turned to a friend
and said , "I would give ail this bril
liant scene for a few days of youth
and love. " Contrast the melancholy
feeling of Rossini , who had everything
that this world could give him , with
the joyful experience of Isaac Watts ,
whose sorrows were great , when he
says :
The Kill of Ziou yields
A thousand sacred sweets ,
Before we reach the heavenly fields
Or walk the golden streets.
Then let our songs abound , .
And every tear be dry ;
We're marching through Immanuel' ?
ground
To fairer worlds on high.
It is prosperity that kills , and trou
ble that saves. While the Israelites
were on * he march , amid great priva
tions and hardships , they behaved well.
After awhile they prayed for meat ; and
the sky darkened with a great flock of
quails ; and these quails fell in great
multitudes all about them ; and the
Israelites ate and ate , and stuffed them
selves until they died. Oh , my friends ,
it is not hardship , or trial , or starva
tion that injures the soul , but abundant
supply. It is not the vulture of trou
ble that eats up the Christian's life ; it
is the quails ! it is the quails ! You
will yet find out that your midnight
wrestle by the brook Jabbok is with an
angel of God , come down to bless and
to save.
Learn again that , while our wrestling
with trouble might be triumphant , we
must expect that it will leave its mark
upon us. Jacob prevailed , but the an
gel touched him and his thigh-bone
sprang from its socket , and the good
man went limping on his way. We
must carry through this world the
mark of the combat. What ploughed
these premature wrinkles in your face ?
What whitened your hair before it was
time for frost ? What silenced forever
so much of the hilarity of your house
hold ? Ah ! it is because the angei of
trouble hath touched you that j-ou go
limping on your way. You need not
be surprised that those who have pass
ed through the fire do not feel as gay
as once they did. Do not be out of
patience with those who come not out
of their despondency. They may tri
umph over their loss , and yet their
gait shall tell you that they have been
trouble-touched. Are we Stoics , that
we can unmoved , see our cradle rifled
of the bright eyes and the sweet lips ?
Can we stand unmoved and see our
gardens of earthly delight uprooted ?
Will Jesus , who wept himself , be angry
with us if we pour our tears into the
graves that open to swallow down what
we loved best ? Was Lazarus more dear
to him than our beloved dead to us ?
No. We have a right to weep. Our
tears must come. You shall not drive
them back to scald the heart. They
fall into God's bottle. Afflicted ones
have died because they could not
weep. Thank God for the sweet , the
mysterious relief that comes to us in
tears ! Under this gentle rain the !
flowers of hope put forth their bloom , j
God pity that dry , withered , parched , {
all consuming grief that wrings its
hands , and grinds its teeth , and bites ;
its nails into the quick , but cannot j
weep ! We may have found the comfort - I
fort of the Cross , and yet ever after !
show that in the dark night , and by the '
brook Jabbok. we were trouble touched , j
Again , we may take the idea of the
text , and announce the approach of the
day dawn. No cue wa3 over m6re
glad to see the morning than wa3 Jacob
after that night of struggle. It ia ap
propriate for philanthropists and
Chriatiana to cry out with this angel
of the test. "Tho day hreaketh. " The
wcrld'o prospects are brightening.
Superstition has had ita strongest props
knocked out. The tyrants of earth are
falling fiat in the dust. The Church
of Christ if. rising up in its strength to
go forth , "fair as the morn , clear as the
sun , and tcrriblo as an army with ban
ners. " Clap your foands , ali ye people ,
"the day hreaketh. "
As I look around about me , I see
many who have passsd through waves
of trouble that came up higher than
their girdle. In God's name I proclaim
cessation of hostilities. You shall not
always go saddened and heart-broken.
God will lift your burden. God will
bring your dead to life. God will
stanch the heart's bleeding. I know
ho will. Like as a father pitieth his
children , so the Lord pities you. The
pains of earth will end. The tomb
will burst. The dead will rioe. The
morning star trembles on a brightening
sky. The gates of the east begin to
swing open. "The day hreaketh. "
Luther and Melancthon were talking
together gloomily about the prospects
of the Church. They could see no
hope of deliverance. After awhile , Lu
ther got up and said to T.Ielancthon ,
"Come , Philip , let us sing the forty-
sixth psalm , 'God is our refuge and
strength in every time of trouble. ' "
Death to many , nay , to all , is a strug
gle and a wrestle. Y/e have many
friends whom it would be hard to
leave , I care not how bright our future
hope is. It is a bitter thing to look
upon this fair world , and know that
we shall never again see its blossoming
spring , its autumnal fruits , its spark
ling streams , and to say farewell to
those with whom we played in child
hood or counselled in manhood. In
that night , like Jacob , we may have to
wrestle , but God will not leave us un
blessed. It shall not be told in heaven
that a dying soul cried unto God for
help , but was not delivered. The lat
tice may be turned to keep out the sun ,
or a book set to dim the light of the
midnight taper ; or tl e room may be
filled with the cries of orphanage or
widowhood ; or the Church of Christ
may mourn over cur going ; but , if Je
sus calls , all is well. The strong wrest
ling , by the brook will cease ; the hours
of death's night will pass along ; one
o'clock in the morning ; two o'clock in
the morning ; four o'clock in the morn
ing ; five o 'clock in the morning : "the
day hreaketh. "
So I would have it when I die. I am
in no haste to be gone. I would like
to stand here twenty years and preach
this Gospel. I have no grudge against
this world. The only fault I have to
find with this world is , that it treats me
too well. But when the time comes to
go , I trust to be ready , my worldly
affairs all settled. If I have wronged
others , I want , then , to be sure of
their forgiveness. In that last wrest
ling , my arm enfeebled with sickness ,
and my head faint , I want Jesus be
side me. If there be hands on this
side of the flood stretched out to hold
me back , I want the heavenly hands
stretched out to draw me forward.
Then. O Jesus , help me on , and help
me up. Unfearing , undoubting , may I
step right out into the light , and be
able to look back to my kindred and
friends , who would detain me here , ex
claiming. Let me go let me go ! The
dav hreaketh.
