When we bless God for mercies, we usually prolong them. When we bless God for miseries, we usually end them. Praise is the honey of life which a devout heart extracts from every bloom of providence and grace.

More quotes by Charles Spurgeon
Satan does not care whether he drags you down to hell as a Calvinist or as an Arminian, so long as he can get you there.
Charles Spurgeon
We are all damaged goods in recovery.
Charles Spurgeon
It is blessed to eat into the very soul of the Bible until the very essence of the Bible flows from you.
Charles Spurgeon
A prayer less soul is a Christ less soul.
Charles Spurgeon
Calvinism is the gospel, and nothing else.
Charles Spurgeon
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.
Charles Spurgeon
The heart of the gospel is redemption, and the essence of redemption is the substitutionary sacrifice of Christ. They who preach this truth preach the gospel in whatever else they may be mistaken but they who preach not the atonement, whatever else they declare, have missed the soul and substance of the divine message.
Charles Spurgeon
Many books in my library are now behind and beneath me. They were good in their way once, and so were the clothes I wore when I was ten years old but I have outgrown them. Nobody ever outgrows Scripture the book widens and deepens with our years.
Charles Spurgeon
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!
Charles Spurgeon
I am certain that I never did grow in grace one-half so much anywhere as I have upon the bed of pain.
Charles Spurgeon
You and your sins must separate or you and your God will never come together. No one sin may keep you they must all be given up, they must be brought out like Canaanite kings from the cave and be hanged up in the sun.
Charles Spurgeon
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
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
We need winds and tempests to exercise our faith, to tear off the rotten bough of self-dependence, and to root us more firmly in Christ. The day of evil reveals to us the value of our glorious hope.
Charles Spurgeon
Stand still - keep the posture of an upright man, ready for action, expecting further orders, cheerfully and patiently awaiting the directing voice and it will not be long ere God shall say to you, as distinctly as Moses said it to the people of Israel, Go forward.
Charles Spurgeon
We are not responsible to God for the soul that are saved, but we are responsible for the Gospel that is preached, and for the way in which we preach it
Charles Spurgeon
If you have to give a carnival to get people to come to church, then you will have to keep giving carnivals to keep them coming back.
Charles Spurgeon
Morality may keep you out of jail, but it takes the blood of Jesus Christ to keep you out of hell.
Charles Spurgeon
No one knows who is listening, say nothing you would not wish put in the newspapers.
Charles Spurgeon
When God's mercies are coming, their footfalls are our desires to pray.
