DAILY PRAYER (BY SPURGEON)
Lord, teach us to be resigned to your will; teach us to delight in your law; teach us to have no will but your will; teach us to be sure that everything you do is good—is the very best that can be done.
Help us to leave our concerns in your divine hands, being persuaded that you have sway even over evil; that you bring good out of it, and better still, and better still in infinite progression, till your high purposes shall develop in your own perfect glory, and in the perfect bliss of all who put their trust in you.
Amen.
VERSE OF THE DAY (COMMENTARY BY SPURGEON)
“You will keep the mind that is dependent on you in perfect peace, for it is trusting in you.” (Isaiah 26:3)
“Peace, peace,” that is the form of the Hebrew, and it means a double peace, the perfection of peace; a great depth of peace, the reality of peace, peace upon peace belongs to the man who trusts in the Lord.
Are you vexed, and worried, and perplexed, dear friend? Are you tossed to and fro as upon a stormy sea? This verse shows you the way in which you may obtain perfect peace: trust in the Lord forever.
RECOMMENDED RESOURCE
Be encouraged by Spurgeon’s earliest sermons*
If this newsletter encourages you every day, I know you’ll find more encouragement in Spurgeon’s other writings.
Recently, I’ve been really blessed by The Lost Sermons of C. H. Spurgeon, a collection of books featuring Spurgeon’s earliest sermon outlines.
Up until a few years ago, these sermons were locked away in the archives and weren’t available for reading anywhere. Now, they’re available for our benefit in The Lost Sermons series.
Here’s what you can expect:
- Hundreds of outlines and sermons from Spurgeon’s early ministry
- Full-color scans of Spurgeon’s personal notebooks
- Critical footnotes to connect with Spurgeon’s early influences and later ministry
- Introductions by well-known pastors and scholars
- Beautiful books that will look stunning in your library
- Thousands of pages of gospel-saturated teaching
