More quotes by Charles Spurgeon
God will hear His people at the beginning of their prayers if the condition of their heart is ready for it.
Charles Spurgeon
True prayer is the trading of the heart with God.
Charles Spurgeon
Lord, let me find my life in thee, and not in the mire of this world's favour or gain.
Charles Spurgeon
It has been well said that if a great king should bring us a great heap of gold, and bid us take as much as we could count in a day, we should make a long day of it but to win souls is far nobler work. How is it that we so soon withdraw from it?
Charles Spurgeon
I would as soon pray to God with machinery as to sing to God with machinery.
Charles Spurgeon
Little learning and much pride come of hasty reading.
Charles Spurgeon
Whenever there is a cross to be carried by any of Christ’s followers, He always bears the heavy end on His own shoulders.
Charles Spurgeon
Bread is a second cause the LORD Himself is the first source of our sustenance. He can work without the second cause as well as with it and we must not tie Him down to one mode of operation. Let us not be too eager after the visible, but let us look to the invisible God.
Charles Spurgeon
There are few people who think what a solemn thing it is to be a Christian. I guess there is not a believer in the world who knows what a miracle it is to be kept a believer.
Charles Spurgeon
A man who does nothing never has time to do anything
Charles Spurgeon
Thus there will be three effects of nearness to Jesus humility, happiness, and holiness.
Charles Spurgeon
The man who is deeply discontented with himself is probably growing fast into the full likeness of Christ.
Charles Spurgeon
Hang that question up in your houses, What would Jesus do? and then think of another, How would Jesus do it? for what he would do, and how he would do it, may always stand as the best guide to us.
Charles Spurgeon
Prayer can never be in excess.
Charles Spurgeon
I have learned to kiss the waves that throw me up against the Rock of Ages.
Charles Spurgeon
If the Lord's bearing our sin for us is not the gospel, I have no gospel to preach.
Charles Spurgeon
The glory of God's faithfulness is that no sin of ours has ever made Him unfaithful.
Charles Spurgeon
When we ask of the Lord coolly, and not fervently, we do as it were, stop His hand, and restrain Him from giving us the very blessing we pretend that we are seeking.
Charles Spurgeon
Nothing puts life into men like a dying Savior.
Charles Spurgeon
If I had never joined a church till I had found one that was perfect, I should never have joined one at all.
Charles Spurgeon
