The Key to the Book of Job
* *
1Wherefore seeing we also are compassed about with so great a cloud of witnesses, let us lay aside every weight, and the sin which doth so easily beset /us/, and let us run with patience the race that is set before us, 2Looking unto Jesus the author and finisher of /our/ faith; who for the joy that was set before him endured the cross, despising the shame, and is set down at the right hand of the throne of God.  3For consider him that endured such contradiction of sinners against himself, lest ye be wearied and faint in your minds.

/“Looking unto Jesus.”
/
/— Hebrews 12:2/
 
It is ever the Holy Spirit’s work to turn our eyes away from self to Jesus; but Satan’s work is just the opposite of this, for he is constantly trying to make us regard ourselves instead of Christ.
He insinuates, “Your sins are too great for pardon; you have no faith; you do not repent enough; you will never be able to continue to the end; you have not the joy of his children; you have such a wavering hold of Jesus.”
All these are thoughts about self, and we shall never find comfort or assurance by looking within.
But the Holy Spirit turns our eyes entirely away from self: he tells us that we are nothing, but that “Christ is all in all.”
Remember, therefore, it is not /thy hold/ of Christ that saves thee—it is Christ; it is not /thy joy/ in Christ that saves thee—it is Christ; it is not even faith in Christ, though that be the instrument—it is Christ’s blood and merits; therefore, look not so much to thy hand with which thou art grasping Christ, as to Christ; look not to thy hope, but to Jesus, the source of thy hope; look not to thy faith, but to Jesus, the author and finisher of thy faith.
We shall never find happiness by looking at our prayers, our doings, or our feelings; it is what /Jesus/ is, not what we are, that gives rest to the soul.
If we would at once overcome Satan and have peace with God, it must be by “looking unto Jesus.”
Keep thine eye simply on him; let his death, his sufferings, his merits, his glories, his intercession, be fresh upon thy mind; when thou wakest in the morning look to him; when thou liest down at night look to him.
Oh! let not thy hopes or fears come between thee and Jesus; follow hard after him, and he will never fail thee.
*“My hope is built on nothing less*
* Than Jesus’ blood and righteousness:*
* I dare not trust the sweetest frame,*
!
But wholly lean on Jesus’ name.”*[2]*
