We may expect answers to prayer, and should not be easy without them any more than we should be if we had written a letter to a friend upon important business, and had received no reply.

More quotes by Charles Spurgeon
Men will allow God to be everywhere except on his Throne
Charles Spurgeon
Master those books you have. Read them thoroughly. Bathe in them until they saturate you. Read and re-read them...digest them...a student will find that his mental constitution is more affected by one book thoroughly mastered than by 20 books he has merely skimmed.
Charles Spurgeon
As well might a gnat seek to drink in the ocean, as a finite creature to comprehend the Eternal God. A God whom we could understand would be no God. If we could grasp Him, He could not be infinite. If we could understand Him, He could not be divine.
Charles Spurgeon
True prayer is the trading of the heart with God.
Charles Spurgeon
Lord, let me find my life in thee, and not in the mire of this world's favour or gain.
Charles Spurgeon
We cannot play at preaching. We preach for eternity.
Charles Spurgeon
To-morrow even may bring the final reckoning.
Charles Spurgeon
Immanuel, God with us in our nature, in our sorrow, in our lifework, in our punishment, in our grave, and now with us, or rather we with Him, in resurrection, ascension, triumph, and Second Advent splendor.
Charles Spurgeon
Grace is the mother and nurse of holiness, and not the apologist of sin.
Charles Spurgeon
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.
Charles Spurgeon
We must trust as if it all depended on God and work as if it all depended on us
Charles Spurgeon
If your faith does not make you pray, have nothing to do with it get rid of it, and God help thee to begin again.
Charles Spurgeon
Sin is a thing of time, but mercy is from everlasting. Transgression is but of yesterday, but mercy was ever of old. Before you and I sought the Lord, the Lord sought us.
Charles Spurgeon
Faith never makes herself her own plea, she rests all her argument upon the blood of Christ.
Charles Spurgeon
Be sure, whatever you leave out, that you teach the children the three R’s,-Ruin, Redemption, and Regeneration.
Charles Spurgeon
If you are renewed by grace, and were to meet your old self, I am sure you would be very anxious to get out of his company.
Charles Spurgeon
Oh, the stoop of the Redeemer's amazing love! Let us, henceforth, contend how low we can go side by side with Him, but remember when we have gone to the lowest He descends lower still, so that we can truly feel that the very lowest place is too high for us, because He has gone lower still.
Charles Spurgeon
Serve God with integrity, and if you achieve no success, at least no sin will lie upon your conscience.
Charles Spurgeon
There are no infidels anywhere but on earth: there are none in heaven, and there are none in hell. Atheism is a strange thing. Even the devils never fell into that vice, for the devils believe and tremble. And there are some of the devil's children that have gone beyond their father in sin, but how will it look when they are for ever lost?
Charles Spurgeon
We shall not long have love to man if we do not first and chiefly cultivate love to God.
Charles Spurgeon
