Faith: Faith makes one person this, and another that. Faith in Noah makes him a shipbuilder, and the second of the world’s great fathers. Faith in Abraham makes him a pilgrim and a stranger. Faith in Moses makes him plague Egypt, and feed a nation forty years in the wilderness.

I went to see yesterday an aged sister—a member of this church, close upon fourscore years of age: she is dying with dropsy, and, being unable to lie down in bed, is obliged to sit up always—a posture which allows little or no rest. When I entered her room she welcomed me most

We achieve impossibilities by the power of the Almighty God. Be not afraid, then, of any duty, but believe that you will be able to do it, for grace will be sufficient for you. #Spurgeon #s1633

Such a God as we have ought to be trusted. Under the shadow of such a wing fear becomes a sin. If God were other than he is we might be afraid; but while he is such a God it is due to him that fear be banished. Peacefulness is true worship. Quiet under alarming conditions is

Ye saints, the Man of Sorrows bless, The God for your unrighteousness Deputed to atone: Praise Him, till with the heavenly throng, Ye sing the never-ending song, And see Him on His throne. #AugustusMToplady

No man is so present with his friend as God is with his people. He is in us and round about us. Never can we depart from him, for we are not only in him, but he is in us, and he sees all our ways. Oh, strange sin that we should forget One who is everywhere present, and manifests

Such love, such love, such wondrous love, infinite, unending, everlasting love, to you! And can you forget? Can you forget? So undeserving, and yet so favoured! Can you forget your friend? Loved by God as he loves his own soul! Can you forget? #Spurgeon #s1634

Oh, how can we forget when God is our diadem of glory? It is our highest privilege that he is ours and we are his. God is our beauty, the honour and excellence of all his saints. It is this that makes us illustrious in the eyes of cherubim and seraphim—that God is ours and we are

Here thy bleeding wounds are heal’d, Sin condemn’d, and pardon seal’d; Grace her empire still maintains; Love without a rival reigns. In thy Surety thou art free, His dear hands were pierced for thee; With His spotless vesture on, Holy as the Holy One. #JohnKent

If you say, “Lord, I cannot trust thee unless I feel this or that,” then you, in effect, say, “I can trust my own feelings, but I cannot trust God’s appointed Saviour.” What is this but to make a god out of your feelings, and a saviour out of your inward griefs? Is your own heart

“But must we not be born again?” says one. Yes, truly; and he that believes in Christ is born again. Though as yet he knows it not, the first mark of life is within his soul, for the first sure token of spiritual life is trusting Jesus Christ alone. The best evidence is not

O my dear friend, if you trust Jesus in the dark, you shall one day enter into the light; and if you never should enjoy comfort you would still be safe—if all the way between this place and heaven you should never have a consciousness of being saved, yet if you have trusted

A superstition still with us in some places.

O Lord, I would delight in Thee, And on Thy care depend; To Thee in every trouble flee, My best, my only Friend. When all created streams are dried, Thy fulness is the same; May I with this be satisfied, And glory in Thy name! #JohnRyland

All good comes from the Altogether Good, who is of good the essence, the Creator, and the Giver. Especially is this true of all spiritual blessing,—of such goodness as comes not so much from benevolence to creatures as from mercy to sinners. As a being, I am grateful that my

A little mercy would have made you sing, but a great mercy has made you sit in silence before the Lord, or fall on your knees in adoration. A common providence would have charmed you, but an extraordinary providence has overwhelmed you; you have lain in the dust at Jesus’ feet,

This forthcoming title from Robert Strivens will be of tremendous benefit to individual Christians and local churches as they seek to grow in their understanding and application of the gospel. Pre-order pricing is in place right now, and customers purchasing physical copies of

When we cannot see our way, Let us trust and still obey; He who bids us forward go, Cannot fail the way to show.... Be it ours then, while we’re here, Him to follow without fear; Where He calls us, there to go; What He bids us, that to do. #ThomasKelly
