Sermons & Devotionals by Charles Spurgeon

Choose the Comforter over Comforts
To sum up the whole, my dear brothers and sisters in Christ, look not at the things which are seen. Do not look upon your comforts as if they were enduring. Do not dote upon them. Do not think of them as if you had them otherwise than on loan, or as if you had any right to them. Be thankful to God f... Read More

Christ and His Children
When thou shalt make his soul an offering for sin, he shall see his seed. (Isaiah 53:10) Our Lord Jesus has not died in vain. His death was sacrificial: He died as our substitute, because death was the penalty of our sins. Because His substitution was accepted of God, He has saved those for whom He ... Read More

Christ Himself is the Proof
The character of Jesus has commanded respect even from those who have abhorred his teaching. It has been a stumbling-stone to all objectors who have preserved a shade of candour. Jesus’ doctrine they could refute, they say; his precepts they could improve, so they boast; his system is narrow and out... Read More

Christ is Precious
How precious is Christ to the believer in the hour of conviction of sin, when he says, "Your sins, which are many, are all forgiven you." How precious to you in the hour of sickness, when He comes to you and says, "I will make your bed in your sickness." How precious to you in the day of trial, when... Read More

Christ's garden
"I have come into My garden—My sister, My bride!" Song of Solomon 5:1 The heart of the believer is Christ's garden. He bought it with His precious blood, and He enters it and claims it as His own. A garden implies separation. It is not the open common; it is not a wilderness; it is walled around, or... Read More

Christ's Prayer For His People
This prayer of Christ is an ever precious portion to all true believers, from the fact that each of them has an inalienable interest in it. Every one of us, beloved, when we listen to the words of Christ should recollect that he is praying for us; that while it is for the great body of his elect he ... Read More

Christian Liberality
Blessed is he that considereth the poor: the Lord will deliver him in time of trouble. (Psalm 41:1) To think about the poor and let them lie on our hearts is a Christian man's duty; for Jesus put them with us and near us when He said, "The poor ye have always with you." Many give their money to the ... Read More
Charles Spurgeon
Church Be Still!
The Church would soon be healed of her sorrows, and delivered from her divisions, if she would for a while be silent; but the voice of a favorite teacher is heard by some, and the voice of another master in Israel is listened to by others, and so God's voice is lost amid the clamor of sects and the ...

Charles Spurgeon
Close Fellowship
And they shall teach no more every man his neighbor, and every man his brother, saying, Know the Lord: for they shall all know me, from the least of them unto the greatest of them, saith the Lord. (Jeremiah 31:34) Truly, whatever else we do not know, we know the Lord. This day is this promise true i... Read More

Come ye, and let us go up to the mountain of the Lord
It is exceedingly beneficial to our souls to mount above this present evil world to something nobler and better. The cares of this world and the deceitfulness of riches are apt to choke everything good within us, and we grow fretful, desponding, perhaps proud and carnal. It is well for us to cut dow...

Commonest Things Blessed
Ye shall serve the Lord your God, and he shall bless thy bread, and thy water. (Exodus 23:25) What a promise is this! To serve God is in itself a high delight. But what an added privilege to have the blessing of the Lord resting upon us in all things! Our commonest things become blessed when we ours... Read More

CONCERNING DELIVERANCE FROM SINNING
IN THIS PLACE I would say a plain word or two to those who understand the method of justification by faith which is in Christ Jesus, but whose trouble is that they cannot cease from sin. We can never be happy, restful, or spiritually healthy till we become holy. We must be rid of sin; but how is the... Read More

Condition of Blessing
Bring ye all of the tithes into the storehouse, that there may be meat in mine house, and prove me now herewith, saith the Lord of hosts, if I will not open you the windows of heaven, and pour you out a blessing, that there shall not be room enough to receive it. (Malachi 3:10) Many read and plead t... Read More
Charles Spurgeon
Confession of Sin
My sermon this morning will have seven texts, and yet I pledge myself that there shall be but three different words in the whole of them; for it so happens that the seven texts are all alike, occurring in seven different portions of God's holy Word. I shall require, however, to use the whole of them... Read More

Conquest to Victory
And the God of peace shall bruise Satan under your feet shortly. (Romans 16:20) This promise follows well upon that of yesterday. We are evidently to be conformed to our covenant Head, not only in His being bruised in His heel but in His conquest of the evil one. Even under our feet is the old drago... Read More

Continual Guidance
The Lord shall guide thee continually. (Isaiah 58:11) What aileth thee? Hast thou lost thy way? Art thou entangled in a dark wood and canst thou not find thy paths? Stand still, and see the salvation of God. He knows the way, and He will direct thee in it if thou cry unto Him. Every day brings its o... Read More

Continue in prayer
It is interesting to remark how large a portion of Sacred Writ is occupied with the subject of prayer, either in furnishing examples, enforcing precepts, or pronouncing promises. We scarcely open the Bible before we read, "Then began men to call upon the name of the Lord;" and just as we are about t... Read More
Charles Spurgeon
Continue Upright
The prayer of the upright is his delight. (Proverbs 15:8) This is as good as a promise, for it declares a present fact, which will be the same throughout all ages. God takes great pleasure in the prayers of upright men; He even calls them His delight. Our first concern is to be upright. Neither bend... Read More

Cure for Envy
Let not thine heart envy sinners: but be thou in the fear of the Lord all the day long. For surely there is an end; and thine expectation shall not be cast off. (Proverbs 23:17-18) When we see the wicked prosper we are apt to envy them. When we hear the noise of their mirth and our own spirit is hea... Read More

Current Religious Perils (September, 1888)
THE following letter, which we find in a new volume of Joseph Cook's Lectures, so nearly represents our views that we cannot withhold it from our readers at this solemn crisis. There is a manifest bracing up and returning to the old faith among many brethren; but their complicity with those who hold... Read More
