Remember this, had any other condition been better for you than the one in which you are, divine love would have put you there.

More quotes by Charles Spurgeon

Image
The petitions of Moses discomfited the enemy more than the fighting of Joshua. Yet both were needed. No, in the soul's conflict, force and fervor, decision and devotion, valour and vehemence, must join their forces, and all will be well.
Charles Spurgeon
Image
Oh, to have “the word of Christ” always dwelling inside of us-in the memory, never forgotten in the heart, always loved in the understanding, really grasped with all the powers and passions of the mind fully submitted to its control!
Charles Spurgeon
Image
Don't just throw the seed at the people! Grind it into flour, bake it into bread, and slice it for them. And it wouldn't hurt to put a little honey on it
Charles Spurgeon
Image
If you were God’s children you would loathe the very thought of the world’s evil joys, and your question would not be, “How far may we be like the world?” but your one cry would be, “How far can we get away from the world? How much can we come out from it?
Charles Spurgeon
Image
We fear not God because of any compulsion our faith is no fetter, our profession is no bondage, we are not dragged to holiness, nor driven to duty. No, our piety is our pleasure, our hope is our happiness, our duty is our delight.
Charles Spurgeon
Image
The more we pray, the more we shall want to pray. The more we pray, the more we can pray. The more we pray, the more we shall pray. He who prays little will pray less, but he who prays much will pray more. And he who prays more, will desire to pray more abundantly.
Charles Spurgeon
Image
God has so made man's heart that nothing can ever fill it but God himself.
Charles Spurgeon
Image
There is no form of sinfulness to which you are addicted which Christ cannot remove.
Charles Spurgeon
Image
Mind your till, and till your mind.
Charles Spurgeon
Image
If Christ is not all to you He is nothing to you. He will never go into partnership as a part Saviour of men. If He be something He must be everything, and if He be not everything He is nothing to you.
Charles Spurgeon
Image
The more a church flourishes, the more, I believe, do hypocrites get in, just as you see many a noxious creeping thing come and get in a garden after a shower of rain. The very things that make glad the flowers bring out these noxious things. And so hypocrites get in and steal much of the church's sap away.
Charles Spurgeon
Image
Consume all obstacles, heavenly fire, and give us now both hearts of flame and tongues of fire to preach Your reconciling word, for Jesus' sake

There is hardship in everything except eating pancakes.
Charles Spurgeon
Image
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
Image
We are in a wrong state of mind if we are not in a thankful state of mind.
Charles Spurgeon
Image
The wicked watcheth the righteous, and seeketh to slay him. If it were not for the laws of the land, we should soon see a massacre of the righteous. Jesus was watched by his enemies, who were thirsting for his blood: his disciples must not look for favour where their Master found hatred and death.
Charles Spurgeon
Image
There, poor sinner, take my garment, and put it on you shall stand before God as if you were Christ, and I will stand before God as if I had been the sinner I will suffer in the sinner's stead, and you shall be rewarded for works that you did not do, but which I did for you.
Charles Spurgeon
Image
Prayer must not be our chance work but our daily business, our habit and vocation.
Charles Spurgeon
Image
The saints shall persevere in holiness, because God perseveres in grace.
Charles Spurgeon
Image
Is it not a sad thing that after all Christ's love to us, we should repay it with lukewarm love to Him?
