16. There shall be an handful of corn in the earth upon the top of the mountains. From small beginnings great results will spring. A mere handful in a
place naturally ungenial will produce a matchless harvest. The fruit thereof shall be like Lebanon. The harvest will be so great that the wind will
rustle through it, and sound like the cedars upon Lebanon. God’s church is no
mean thing; its increase is of the most astonishing kind. As Lebanon is
conspicuous and celebrated, so shall the church be. And they of the city shall flourish like grass of the earth. Christ’s subjects will be as
plentiful as blades of grass, and will as suddenly appear as eastern verdure
after a heavy shower. We need not fear for the cause of truth in the land; it
is in good hands, where the pleasure of the Lord is sure to prosper.
