Whether we like it or not, asking is the rule of the kingdom
Charles Spurgeon
Image
Man is a fallen star till he is right with heaven: he is out of order with himself and all around him till he occupies his true place in relation to God. When he serves God, he has reached that point where he doth serve himself best, and enjoys himself most. It is man's honour, it is man's joy, it is man's heaven, to live unto God.
Charles Spurgeon
Image
We are in a wrong state of mind if we are not in a thankful state of mind.
Charles Spurgeon

Jesus poured out his soul in life before he poured it out unto death
Charles Spurgeon

You will always know whether you are delivered from the guilt of sin by answering this question: Am I delivered from the love of sin?

Great faith must have great trials.

The verb 'highly favored' (Luke 1:28) is the same as 'made us accepted' in Ephesians 1:6, referring to all of God's children. All true believers have been 'highly graced' by the Lord.
Charles Spurgeon
Image
The friend of God must not spend a day without God, and he must undertake no work apart from his God.
Charles Spurgeon
Image
The pleasures arising from a right understanding of the divine testimonies are of the most delightful order earthly enjoyments are utterly contemptible if compared with them. The sweetest joys, yea, the sweetest of the sweetest falls to his portion who has God's truth to be his heritage.
Charles Spurgeon
Image
If I am not today all that I hope to be, yet I see Jesus, and that assures me that I shall one day be like Him.
Charles Spurgeon

Repentance will not make you see Christ but to see Christ will give you repentance.
Charles Spurgeon
Image
You and your sins must separate, or you and your God will never come together.
Charles Spurgeon
Image
If there is one doctrine I have preached more than another, it is the doctrine of the Perseverance of the Saints even to the end.
Charles Spurgeon
Image
When you desire to be most alive to God, you will generally find sin most alive to repel you.
Charles Spurgeon
Image
I shall never understand, even in heaven, why the Lord Jesus should ever have loved me.
Charles Spurgeon
Image
Be not proud of race, face, place, or grace.
Charles Spurgeon
Image
God never punishes his children in the sense of avenging justice. He chastens as a father does his child, but he never punishes his redeemed as a judge does a criminal. It is unjust to exact punishment from redeemed souls since Christ has been punished in their place. How shall the Lord punish twice for one offense?
Charles Spurgeon
Image
The resurrection of Jesus Christ from the dead is one of the best attested facts on record. There were so many witnesses to behold it, that if we do in the least degree receive the credibility of men's testimonies, we cannot and we dare not doubt that Jesus rose from the dead.
Charles Spurgeon
Image
In all states of dilemma or of difficulty, prayer is an available source. The ship of prayer may sail through all temptations, doubts and fears, straight up to the throne of God and though she may be outward bound with only griefs, and groans, and sighs, she shall return freighted with a wealth of blessings!

Anything which you have in this world, which you do not consecrate to Christ's cause, you do rob the Lord of.
