DAILY PRAYER (BY SPURGEON)

Give us faith to believe this: when the stormy times come, let us not doubt, but what our Helmsman will bring us to the desired haven. Though winds and waves assault our keel, may we still find perfect peace, and rest in the thought that he, who is in the hinder part of the ship, is Master of winds and waves.

Comfort your children this morning, great Father, if any of them are in doubt just now; and bring them all into an assured confidence, and perfect restfulness in the Lord their God.

Amen.

VERSE OF THE DAY (COMMENTARY BY SPURGEON)

“… at the name of Jesus every knee will bow— in heaven and on earth and under the earth…” (Philippians 2:10)

Look at him! Can your imagination picture him? Behold his transcendent glory! The majesty of kings is swallowed up; the pomp of empires dissolves like the white mist of the morning before the sun; the brightness of assembled armies is eclipsed. He in himself is brighter than the sun, more terrible than armies with banners. In heaven, in earth, in hell, all knees bend before him, and every tongue confesses that he is God.

If not now, yet in the time that is to come this shall be carried out, that every creature of God’s making shall acknowledge his Son to be “God over all, blessed forever” (Romans 9:5). My soul anticipates that blessed day, when this whole earth shall bend its knee before its God willingly! I do believe there is a happy era coming, when there shall not be one knee unbent before my Lord and Master.
