DAILY PRAYER (BY SPURGEON)
Oh, good God, blessed God; like David, we long to sit down before you in silence and wait awhile, for our words, when we do use them, are totally inadequate to the expression of what we feel, much more of what we ought to feel concerning your goodness and your loving-kindness; yet we will bless your name, with such language as we have.
Lord, our God, let others worship whom they will, and seek after what object of love they please, this God is our God forever and ever, He shall be our guide even unto death. Father, Son, and Spirit, the Triune God of Israel, we express most solemnly the reverence we feel for you; and render to you our humble adoration, as we acknowledge you to be the One and only God, by whom the heavens and the earth were made, by whom all things consist—the Redeemer of your people, their Father and their Friend, forever and ever! All our hearts worship you, oh, glorious Lord!
Amen.
VERSE OF THE DAY (COMMENTARY BY SPURGEON)
“Be silent before the LORD and wait expectantly for him; do not be agitated by one who prospers in his way, by the person who carries out evil plans.” (Psalm 37:7)
Time is nothing to God; let it be nothing to you. God is worth waiting for. “He never is before his time, he never is too late.” In a story we wait for the end to clear up the plot; we ought not to prejudge the great drama of life, but stay till the closing scene.
