Illustration: “Cheer him, boys!”
There was a fire in the big city, and the Fireman from their letters together, and we’re not in their brain function to the top most story to rescue the people in peril.
One after another was rescued by the brave firemen.
All had been rescued, it seemed.
No! Yonder is a person’s face at the upper window.
Play wrapped up something around one of the firemen, and in spite of the fierce flames, he went again to that window, and put a robe around a little woman and started down.
Then they saw him tremble as the fire raged around him and it seemed that he would fall with his precious burden, but the fire chief cried to his men: “Cheer him, boys!
Cheer him, boys!”
They cheered him, cheer after cheer, and heart came back, and he came down with the precious life saved!
Many times are Christian brothers and sisters need to be cheered on, encouraged to keep on for the Lord, but all too often, instead of cheering them on – we shake the ladder!

A- This invitation is for believers.
It is for disciples of the Lord Jesus Christ, you and I.
