Obstacles to the advancement of the work of God will appear; but fear not. To the omnipotence of the King of Kings, our covenant-keeping God unites the gentleness and care of a tender shepherd. Nothing can stand in His way. His power is absolute, and it is the pledge of the sure fulfillment of His promises to His people. He can remove all obstructions to the advancement of His work. He has means for the removal of every difficulty, that those who serve Him and respect the means He employs may be delivered. His goodness and love are infinite, and His covenant is unalterable. {8T 10.3}

Forhindringer for fremførelsen af Guds arbejde vil vise sig; men frygt ikke. Kongernes Konges almagt, vor pagts-holdende Gud forener sig med en omsorgsfuld hyrdes mildhed og ømhed. Intet kan stå i vejen for ham. Hans kraft er uindskrænket og den er pantet på den visse fuldbyrdelse af hans løfter til sit folk. Han kan fjerne alle hindringer for sit arbejdes fremførelse. Han har midler til at fjerne enhver vanskelighed, så dem, som tjener ham og giver agt på de midler han bruger, kan udfries.
