He raiseth up the poor out of the dust, [and] lifteth up the beggar from the dunghill, to set [them] among princes, and to make them inherit the throne of glory: for the pillars of the earth [are] the LORD’S, and he hath set the world upon them.

Theological / Devotional

He raiseth up. By the power of God the Christian soul, ever conscious of its impotence, rises above the forces of selfishness. Girded with strength from on high, such a soul finds past doubts, fears, and temptations laid low. Victory takes the place of defeat, and in the fullness of joy the soul is formed in the image of Christ.
