Though we cannot by our prayers give God any information, yet we must by our prayers give him honor.
Matthew Henry
Image
As if men did not die fast enough, they are ingenious at finding out ways to destroy one another.
Matthew Henry

What God requires of us he himself works in us, or it is not done. He that commands faith, holiness, and love, creates them by the power of his grace going along with his word, that he may have all the praise.
Matthew Henry
Image
The meek are those who quietly submit themselves to God, to His Word and to His rod, who follow His directions, and comply with His designs, and are gentle toward all men.
Matthew Henry
Image
Christ died. He left a will in which He gave His soul to His Father, His body to Joseph of Arimathea, His clothes to the soldiers, and His mother to John. But to His disciples, who had left all to follow Him, He left not silver or gold, but something far better-His PEACE!
Matthew Henry

The Bible is a letter God has sent to us prayer is a letter we send to him.
Matthew Henry
Image
What harrowing is after sowing, the same is meditation after hearing--it hides the word.
Matthew Henry
Image
The service of sin is perfect slavery.
Matthew Henry
Image
They that pray in the family do well they that pray and read the Scriptures do better but they that pray, and read, and sing do best of all.
Matthew Henry
Image
What we count the ills of life are often blessings in disguise, resulting in good to us in the end. Though for the present not joyous but grievous, yet, if received in a right spirit, they work out fruits of righteousness for us at last.
Matthew Henry
Image
Man takes a great deal of pains to heap up riches, and they are but like heaps of manure in the furrows of the field, good for nothing unless they be spread.
Matthew Henry
Image
Pure Christianity and serious godliness fear not the scrutiny of a free thought, but despise the impotent malice of a prejudiced one.
Matthew Henry
Image
Blushing is the colour of virtue.
Matthew Henry
Image
Love is the root obedience is the fruit.
Matthew Henry
