When you see no present advantage, walk by faith and not by sight. Do God the honor to trust Him when it comes to matters of loss for the sake of principle.

More quotes by Charles Spurgeon
Depend upon it, since Satan could not kill the church by roaring at her like a lion, he is now trying to crush her by hugging her like a bear.
Charles Spurgeon
God's thoughts of you are many, let not yours be few in return.
Charles Spurgeon
I find myself frequently depressed - perhaps more so than any other person here. And I find no better cure for that depression than to trust in the Lord with all my heart, and seek to realize afresh the power of the peace-speaking blood of Jesus, and His infinite love in dying upon the cross to put away all my transgressions.
Charles Spurgeon
You may readily judge whether you are a child of God or a hypocrite by seeing in what direction your soul turns in seasons of severe trial. The hypocrite flies to the world and finds a sort of comfort there. But the child of God runs to his Father and expects consolation only from the Lord's hand.
Charles Spurgeon
There are two great truths which from this platform I have proclaimed for many years. The first is that salvation is free to every man who will have it the second is that God gives salvation to a people whom He has chosen and these truths are not in conflict with each other in the least degree.
Charles Spurgeon

Charles Spurgeon
The gospel is not for you who can save yourselves, but for those who are lost.
Charles Spurgeon

True prayer is measured by weight, not by length
Charles Spurgeon
Bread is a second cause the LORD Himself is the first source of our sustenance. He can work without the second cause as well as with it and we must not tie Him down to one mode of operation. Let us not be too eager after the visible, but let us look to the invisible God.
Charles Spurgeon
A mouthful of sea air, or a stiff walk in the wind's face would not give grace to the soul, but it would yield oxygen to the body, which is next best
Charles Spurgeon
Prayer is the lisping of the believing infant, the shout of the fighting believer, the requiem of the dying saint falling asleep in Jesus.
Charles Spurgeon
You will never know the fullness of Christ until you know the emptiness of everything but Christ.
Charles Spurgeon
Faith is the fountain, the foundation and the fosterer of obedience.
Charles Spurgeon
The more holy a man becomes, the more conscious he is of unholiness.
Charles Spurgeon
Men will allow God to be everywhere except on his Throne
Charles Spurgeon
If God lights the candle, none can blow it out.
Charles Spurgeon
God has a way of giving by the cartloads to those who give away by shovelfuls.
Charles Spurgeon
Idle men tempt the devil to tempt them.
