Sermons & Devotionals by Charles Spurgeon
Charles Spurgeon
Dauntless Faith
I am with thee, and no man shall set on thee to hurt thee. (Acts 18:10) So long as the Lord had work for Paul to do in Corinth, the fury of the mob was restrained. The Jews opposed themselves and blasphemed; but they could neither stop the preaching of the gospel nor the conversion of the hearers. G... Read More

Day Is at Hand
And I will give him the morning star. (Revelation 2:28) Until the day break and the shadows flee away, what a blessing it is to see in Jesus "the morning star"! I remember when we read in the newspapers the idle tale that the star of Bethlehem had again appeared. On inquiry we found that it was only... Read More

Deliver me from bloodguiltiness, O God
In this SOLEMN CONFESSION, it is pleasing to observe that David plainly names his sin. He does not call it manslaughter, nor speak of it as an imprudence by which an unfortunate accident occurred to a worthy man, but he calls it by its true name, bloodguiltiness. He did not actually kill the husband... Read More
Charles Spurgeon
Desires of Righteous Granted
The desires of the righteous shall be granted. (Proverbs 10:24) Because it is a righteous desire it is safe for God to grant it. It would be neither good for the man himself, nor for society at large, that such a promise should be made to the unrighteous. Let us keep the Lord's commands, and He will... Read More

Despise Not Thy Youth
Then said I, Ah, Lord God! behold I cannot speak; for I am a child. But the Lord said unto me, Say not, l am a child: for thou shalt go to all that I shall send thee, and whatsoever I command thee thou shat[ speak. (Jeremiah 1:6-7) Jeremiah was young and felt a natural shrinking when sent upon a gre... Read More

Divine Cultivation
I the Lord do keep it; I will water it every moment: Lest any hurt it, I will keep it night and day. (Isaiah 27:3) When the Lord Himself speaks in His own proper person rather than through a prophet, the word has a peculiar weight to believing minds. It is Jehovah Himself who is the keeper of His ow... Read More
Charles Spurgeon
Divine Provision
Wherefore, if God so clothe the grass of the field, which today is, and tomorrow is cast into the oven, shall he not much more clothe you, O ye of little faith? (Matthew 6:30) Clothes are expensive, and poor believers may be led into anxiety as to where their next suit will come from. The soles are ... Read More
Charles Spurgeon
Divine Recompense
He that watereth shall be watered also himself. (Proverbs 11:25) If I carefully consider others, God will consider me, and in some way or other He will recompense me. Let me consider the poor, and the Lord will consider me. Let me look after little children, and the Lord will treat me as His child. ... Read More

Do as thou hast said
God's promises were never meant to be thrown aside as waste paper; He intended that they should be used. God's gold is not miser's money, but is minted to be traded with. Nothing pleases our Lord better than to see His promises put in circulation; He loves to see His children bring them up to Him, a... Read More

Do men make their own gods?
"Do men make their own gods? Yes—but they are not gods!" Jeremiah 16:20 One great besetting sin of ancient Israel was idolatry, and we who are the spiritual Israel are vexed with a tendency to the same folly! We no longer bow down to sticks and stones—but Mammon still intrudes his golden calf; and t... Read More
Charles Spurgeon
Do Not Be Dismayed
The Christian’s life is no child’s play. All who have gone on pilgrimage to the celestial city have found a rough road, sloughs of despond and hills of difficulty, giants to fight and tempters to shun. Hence there are two perils to which Christians are exposed; the one is that under heavy pressure t... Read More

Do not forsake me, O Lord!
"Do not forsake me, O Lord! Do not be far from me, O my God!" Psalm 38:21 Frequently we pray that God would not forsake us in the hour of trial and temptation; but we too much forget that we have need to use this prayer at all times. There is no moment of our life, however holy—in which we can do wi... Read More
Charles Spurgeon
Do we then make void the law through faith?
When the believer is adopted into the Lord's family, his relationship to old Adam and the law ceases at once; but then he is under a new rule, and a new covenant. Believer, you are God's child; it is your first duty to obey your heavenly Father. A servile spirit you have nothing to do with: you are ... Read More
Charles Spurgeon
Do you understand what you read?
"Do you understand what you read?" Acts 8:30 We would 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 Spirit, the Author of the Scriptures, is He who alone can enlighten u... Read More
Charles Spurgeon
Doth Job fear God for nought?
This was the wicked question of Satan concerning that upright man of old, but there are many in the present day concerning whom it might be asked with justice, for they love God after a fashion because He prospers them; but if things went ill with them, they would give up all their boasted faith in ...

Drawing Near to God
Draw nigh to God, and he will draw nigh to you. (James 4:8) The nearer we come to God, the more graciously will He reveal Himself to us. When the prodigal comes to his father, his father runs to meet him. When the wandering dove returns to the ark, Noah puts out his hand to pull her in unto him, Whe... Read More

Dwelling Safely Apart
Israel then shall dwell in safety alone: the fountain of Jacob shall be upon a land of corn and wine; also his heavens shall drop down dew, (Deuteronomy 33:28) The more we dwell alone, the more safe shall we be. God would have His people separate from sinners, His call to them is, "Come ye out from ... Read More

Eat, Don't Argue!
TWO learned doctors are angrily discussing the nature of food, and allowing their meal to lie untasted, while a simple countryman is eating as heartily as he can of that which is set before him. The religious world is full of quibblers, critics, and sceptics, who, like the doctors, fight over Christ... Read More
Charles Spurgeon
Election
If there were no other text in the sacred Word except this one, I think we should all be bound to receive and acknowledge the truthfulness of the great and glorious doctrine of God's ancient choice of his family. But there seems to be an inveterate prejudice in the human mind against this doctrine; ... Read More

Elijah's Appeal To The Undecided
IT was a day to be remembered, when the multitudes of Israel were assembled at the foot of Carmel, and when the solitary prophet of the Lord came forth to defy the four hundred and fifty priests of the false god. We might look upon that scene with the eye of historical curiosity, and we, should find... Read More
