True prayer is the trading of the heart with God, and the heart never comes into spiritual commerce with the ports of heaven until God the Holy Ghost puts wind into the sails and speeds the ship into its haven.

More quotes by 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?
Charles Spurgeon
It seems to me that doubt is worse than trial. I had sooner suffer any affliction than be left to question the gospel or my own interest in it.
Charles Spurgeon
Preach not calmly and quietly as though you were asleep, but preach with fire and pathos and passion.
Charles Spurgeon
Sin is no little thing. It girded the Redeemer’s head with thorns, and pierced his heart . . . Look upon all sin as that which crucified the Saviour, and you will see it to be ‘exceeding sinful’.
Charles Spurgeon
My hope lives not because I am not a sinner, but because I am a sinner for whom Christ died my trust is not that I am holy, but that being unholy, HE is my righteousness. My faith rests not upon 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 now doing for me. Hallelujah!
Charles Spurgeon
It is wonderful how God works by our hands, and yet His own hand does it all.
Charles Spurgeon
He that knows how to overcome the Lord in prayer, has heaven and earth at his disposal.
Charles Spurgeon
We must mark God's providence leading us and if providence tarries, tarry till providence comes
Charles Spurgeon
I would go to the deeps a hundred times a cheer a downcast spirit.
Charles Spurgeon
There is no repentance where a man can talk lightly of sin, much less where he can speak tenderly and lovingly of it.
Charles Spurgeon
There is no university for a Christian, like that of sorrow and trial
Charles Spurgeon
I believe that one reason why the church of God at this present moment has so little influence over the world is because the world has so much influence over the church.
Charles Spurgeon
When God's mercies are coming, their footfalls are our desires to pray.
Charles Spurgeon
There is nothing that will keep a person from Christ like a good opinion of himself.
Charles Spurgeon
Too many think lightly of sin, and therefore think lightly of the Savior. He who has stood before his God, convicted and condemned, with the rope about his neck, is the man to weep for joy when he is pardoned, to hate the evil which has been forgiven him, and to live to the honor of the Redeemer by whose blood he has been cleansed.
Charles Spurgeon
There may be some sins of which a man cannot speak, but there is no sin which the blood of Christ cannot wash away.
Charles Spurgeon
When I am weak then am I strong, Grace is my shield and Christ my Song.
Charles Spurgeon
A sermon wept over is more acceptable with God than one gloried over.
Charles Spurgeon
Whenever God means to make a man great, he always breaks him in pieces first.
Charles Spurgeon
It does not spoil your happiness to confess your sin. The unhappiness is in not making the confession.
Charles Spurgeon
