Two precious jewels glittering side by side
"Delight yourself in the Lord." Psalm 37:4 The teaching of these words must seem very surprising to those who are strangers to vital godliness. But to the sincere believer, it is only the inculcation of a recognized truth. The life of the believer is here described as a delight in God—and we are thu... Read More

Unbroken Fellowship Essential
lf ye abide in me, and my words abide in you, ye shall ask what ye will, and it shall be done unto you. (John 15:7) Of necessity we must be in Christ to live unto Him, and we must abide in Him to be able to claim the largesse of this promise from Him. To abide in Jesus is never to quit Him for anoth...

Understandest thou what thou readest?
We should be abler teachers of others, and less liable to be carried about by every wind of doctrine, if we sought to have a more intelligent understanding of the Word of God. As the Holy Ghost, the Author of the Scriptures is He who alone can enlighten us rightly to understand them, we should const... Read More

Unstaggering Trustfulness
He shall not be afraid of evil tidings; his heart is fixed, trusting in the Lord. (Psalm 112:7) Suspense is dreadful. When we have no news from home, we are apt to grow anxious, and we cannot be persuaded that "no news is good news." Faith is the cure for this condition of sadness; the Lord by His S... Read More

Unto me, who am less than the least of all saints
The apostle Paul felt it a great privilege to be allowed to preach the gospel. He did not look upon his calling as a drudgery, but he entered upon it with intense delight. Yet while Paul was thus thankful for his office, his success in it greatly humbled him. The fuller a vessel becomes, the deeper ... Read More

Victory in Reverses
Rejoice not against me, O mine enemy: when I fall, I shall arise; when I sit in darkness, the Lord shall be a light unto me. (Micah 7:8) This may express the feelings of a man or woman downtrodden and oppressed. Our enemy may put out our light for a season. There is sure hope for us in the Lord; and... Read More

Wait for the Finals
Gad, a troop shall overcome him: but he shall overcome at the last. (Genesis 49:19) Some of us have been like the tribe of Gad. Our adversaries for a while were too many for us; they came upon us like a troop. Yes, and for the moment they overcame us; and they exulted greatly because of their tempor... Read More

Walk in Light
I am come a light into the world, that whosoever believeth on me should not abide in darkness. John 12:46) This world is dark as midnight; Jesus has come that by faith we may have light and may no longer sit in the gloom which covers all the rest of mankind. Whosoever is a very wide term: it means y... Read More

We are come to the blood of sprinkling
Reader, have you come to the blood of sprinkling? The question is not whether you have come to a knowledge of doctrine, or an observance of ceremonies, or to a certain form of experience, but have you come to the blood of Jesus? The blood of Jesus is the life of all vital godliness. If you have trul... Read More

We Dare Not Doubt
I will go before thee, and make the crooked places straight: I will break in pieces the gates of brass, and cut in sunder the bars of iron. (Isaiah 45:2) This was for Cyrus; but it is evermore the heritage of all the Lord's own spiritual servants. Only let us go forward by faith, and our way will be... Read More
Charles Spurgeon
We dwell in Him
Do you want a house for your soul? Do you ask, "What is the purchase?" It is something less than proud human nature will like to give. It is without money and without price. Ah! you would like to pay a respectable rent! You would love to do something to win Christ? Then you cannot have the house, fo... Read More

We May Speak for God
Therefore thus saith the Lord, If thou return, then will I bring thee again, and thou shalt stand before me: and if thou take forth the precious from the vile, thou shalt be as my mouth. (Jeremiah 15:19) Poor Jeremiah! Yet why do we say so? The weeping prophet was one of the choicest servants of God... Read More

We must be wedded to the Leah of real holiness
"Laban replied—It is not our custom here, to give the younger daughter in marriage before the older one." Genesis 29:26 We do not excuse Laban for his dishonesty—but we desire to learn from the custom which he quoted as his excuse. There are some things which must be taken in order; and if we would ...

We must through much tribulation enter into the kingdom of God
God's people have their trials. It was never designed by God, when He chose His people, that they should be an untried people. They were chosen in the furnace of affliction; they were never chosen to worldly peace and earthly joy. Freedom from sickness and the pains of mortality was never promised t... Read More
Charles Spurgeon
We need You to bring us to You!
"When my heart is overwhelmed—lead me to the Rock that is higher than I!" Psalm 61:2 Most of us know what it is to be overwhelmed in heart—sinking like a vessel deluged by the storm! Discoveries of inward corruption will do this—if the Lord permits the great deep of our depraved heart to become trou... Read More

We Receive as We Give
Blessed are the merciful for they shall obtain mercy. (Matthew 5:7) It is not meet that the man who will not forgive should be forgiven, nor shall he who will not give to the poor have his own wants relieved. God will measure to us with our own bushels, and those who have been hard masters and hard ... Read More

We Shall Be Without Spot Or Wrinkle
We believe according to God’s promise that we shall one day be “without spot or wrinkle, or any such thing.” I do believe that this head shall wear a crown of glory, and that this hand shall wave a palm branch. I am fully assured that he will one day sweetly say to me “Close thine eyes that thou may... Read More

We Shall Rejoice Together In Him
Looking to him whom they pierced, the whole house of Israel will weep bitterly. And now, dear brethren, it will tend to increase the blessed sorrows which will then sweep over Israel, to think how the Lord has had patience with them, and still has never cast them away. To this day they are as distin... Read More
Charles Spurgeon
We will be glad and rejoice in Thee
We will be glad and rejoice in Thee. We will not open the gates of the year to the dolorous notes of the sackbut, but to the sweet strains of the harp of joy, and the high sounding cymbals of gladness. "O come, let us sing unto the Lord: let us make a joyful noise unto the rock of our salvation." We... Read More

We will remember Thy love more than wine
Jesus will not let His people forget His love. If all the love they have enjoyed should be forgotten, He will visit them with fresh love. "Do you forget my cross?" says He, "I will cause you to remember it; for at My table I will manifest Myself anew to you. Do you forget at I did for you in the cou... Read More
