Description

On September 3, 1864, President Abraham Lincoln requested “that on next Sunday, in all the places of worship in the United States, thanksgiving be offered to Him for His mercy in preserving the national existence against the insurgent rebels…and also that prayer be made for Divine protection to our brave soldiers and leaders in the field” (p. 3). Johnson preached this sermon to mark that occasion.
