DAILY PRAYER (BY SPURGEON)
Accept, this morning, the thanksgiving of some that have been sore sick, but who once again feel strength returning. Accept the thanks of others that have been far across the sea, and have come home again safely. Receive the thanksgiving of yet others who have been delivered out of great trouble, or who have seen their dear ones raised up from beds of languishing. We have all some cause for thankfulness, therefore will we praise the Lord from the rising of the sun unto the going down of the same.
Amen.
VERSE OF THE DAY (COMMENTARY BY SPURGEON)
“From the rising of the sun to its setting, let the name of the LORD be praised.” (Psalm 113:3)
In hours of morning light, when the dew is on the grass, and our soul is full of gladness, and in the hours of the setting sun, when the day is weary, and the night seems coming on, still let the Lord have the praise that is his due, for he is always to be praised. There is never an hour in which it would be unseemly to praise God. For everything there is a season, and a time for every purpose under heaven; but the praising of God is never out of season. All time and all eternity may be dedicated to this blessed work.
RECOMMENDED RESOURCE
Men in your church ARE using porn. Do you know how to help them?*
64% of Christian men regularly use pornography. And that means that men YOU know are struggling — stuck in sin, filled with guilt, and not knowing how to move forward.
Are you ready to help these men?
Are you ready to help their wives?
HarvestUSA is a really great, faithful ministry that focuses on equipping YOU to minister to people struggling with their own sexual sin or suffering in the aftermath of their spouses’ sexual sin.
Harvest has put together two really incredible Bible study resources that you could start using right away to help men and women in your church.
- “Discovery” is a Bible study for men stuck in sexual sin. It is gospel-centered and will help you see and address the root of your sin.
- “Jesus and Your Unwanted Journey” is a study for wives of men who are stuck in sexual sin. It will help you walk through this difficult season with compassion, honestly, and biblical truth.
These great resources are available for FREE and they even come with a Leader’s Guide, so that you can start a small group study in your own church or home right now.
I believe that God wants to use his Word THROUGH YOU to help men and women in your life. And I know that these studies will help you along the way.
