Quote

My faith rests not in what I am, or shall be, or feel, or know, but in what Christ is, in what he has done, and in what he is doing for me.

Delayed answers to prayer are not only trials of faith they also give us opportunities to honor God through our steadfast confidence in Him, even when facing the apparent denial of our request.
Charles Spurgeon
Image
May every one of us believe Him better, and have greater thoughts of Him, and never let us be guilty henceforth of confining, as it were, within iron bonds the limitless One of Israel.
Charles Spurgeon
Image
He who looks sinward has his back to God-he who looks Godward has his back to sin.
Charles Spurgeon
Image
My brethren, do you believe in the Holy Ghost?...Have we such a reliance upon the Holy Ghost? Do we believe that, at this moment, He can clothe us with power, even as He did the apostles at Pentecost? Do we believe that, under our preaching, by His energy a thousand might be born in a day?

Praise is the Rehearsal of Our eternal Song By Grace We learn to Sing, and in Glory We Continue to Sing.
Charles Spurgeon
Image
You say, 'If I had a little more, I should be very satisfied.' You make a mistake. If you are not content with what you have, you would not be satisfied if it were doubled.
Charles Spurgeon
Image
Nobody can do as much damage to the church of God as the man who is within its walls, but not within its life.
Charles Spurgeon
Image
We hold that man is never so near grace as when he begins to feel he can do nothing at all.
Charles Spurgeon
Image
Amusement should be used to do us good “like a medicine”: it must never be used as the food of the man...Many have had all holy thoughts and gracious resolutions stamped out by perpetual trifling. Pleasure so called is the murderer of thought. This is the age of excessive amusement: everybody craves for it, like a babe for its rattle.
Charles Spurgeon
Image
Complicity with error will take from the best of men the power to enter any successful protest against it.
Charles Spurgeon
Image
We must trust as if it all depended on God and work as if it all depended on us
Charles Spurgeon
Image
How gentle and tender ought we to be with others who are foolish when we remember how foolish we are ourselves
Charles Spurgeon
Image
Pray for the peace of Jerusalem and thine own soul shall be refreshed.
Charles Spurgeon
Image
Sin and Hell are married unless repentance proclaims the divorce.
Charles Spurgeon
Image
Faith has a saving connection with Christ. Christ is on the shore, so to speak, holding the rope, and as we lay hold of it with the hand of our confidence, He pulls us to shore but all good works having no connection with Christ are drifted along down the gulf of fell despair.
Charles Spurgeon
Image
Prayerless souls are Christless souls, Christless souls are Graceless souls and Graceless souls shall soon be damned souls. See your peril, you that neglect altogether the blessed privilege of prayer! You are in the bonds of iniquity, you are in the gall of bitterness. God deliver you, for Hisname's sake!

It is blessed to eat into the very soul of the Bible until the very essence of the Bible flows from you.
Charles Spurgeon
Image
There is no more blessed way of living, than the life of faith based upon a covenant-keepin g God - to know that we have no care, for He cares for us that we need have no fear, except to fear Him that we need have no troubles, because we have cast our burdens upon the Lord, and are conscience that He will sustain us.

When you desire to be most alive to God, you will generally find sin most alive to repel you.

To believe a thing is to see the cool crystal water sparkling in the cup. But to meditate on it is to drink of it. Reading gathers the clusters contemplation squeezes forth their generous juice.
