Quote

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.

Image
To think that before the hills were formed, or the channels of the sea were scooped out, God loved me that from everlasting to everlasting His mercy is upon His people. Is not that a consolation?
Charles Spurgeon
Image
Unbelief is the mother of vice it is the parent of sin and, therefore, I say it is a pestilent evil-a master sin.
Charles Spurgeon
Image

Every hour of every day, God is richly blessing us both when we sleep and when we wake His mercy waits upon us.
Charles Spurgeon
Image
If we are indeed contending for truth and righteousness, let us not tarry till we have talent, or wealth, or any other form of visible power at our disposal but with such stones as we find in the brook, and with our own usual sling, let us run to meet the enemy.
Charles Spurgeon
Image
If you wish to know God, you must know his Word. If you wish to perceive His power, you must see how He works by his Word. If you wish to know His purpose before it comes to pass, you can only discover it by His Word.
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!
Charles Spurgeon
Image
Don't drown the man who taught you to swim. If you learned your trade or profession from the man, do not set up in opposition to him.
Charles Spurgeon
Image
If we had to preach to thousands year after year, and never rescued but one soul, that one soul would be a full reward for all our labour, for a soul is of countless price.
Charles Spurgeon
Image
We often forget that the author of our faith must be the finisher of it also.
Charles Spurgeon
Image
It is a reading age, a preaching age, a working age, but it is not a praying age.
Charles Spurgeon
Image
The more of heaven there is in our lives, the less of earth we shall covet.
Charles Spurgeon
Image
Though you have changed a thousand times, He has not changed once.
Charles Spurgeon
Image
The Lord hath laid on him the iniquity of us all. It is the most grievous sentence of the three, but it overflows with comfort. Strange is it that where misery was concentrated mercy reigned where sorrow reached her climax weary souls find rest.
Charles Spurgeon
Image
Be assured, there is nothing new in theology except that which is false.
Charles Spurgeon
Image
A sermon often does a man most good when it makes him most angry. Those people who walk down the aisles and say, I will never hear that man again, very often have an arrow rankling in their breast.
