DAILY PRAYER
Will you keep your people right with regard to the world? Oh, that the witness that we bear might be an unstained one. Oh, grant to us to be a light in the world, that we may never cast darkness instead of light over the minds of men.
Help us to live out Christ’s life. Oh Lord, help us to be so consumed with zeal, that it may eat us up; and may we be so full of love, that those who are around us may know, that if we write a harsh letter, or say a strong word, love alone dictates it.
Amen.
VERSE OF THE DAY
“But I have other sheep that are not from this sheep pen; I must bring them also, and they will listen to my voice. Then there will be one flock, one shepherd.” (John 10:16)“Them also I must bring,” “I must,” says Jesus; and, as men say, “must is for the king.” There is a divine necessity laid upon Christ our Savior, he must save the people, the sheep whom his Father gave him: “them also I must bring.” Oh, wondrous love, that holds even the Omnipotent Savior in bonds, and puts him under the sacred constraint of this mighty “must”: “them also I must bring.”

RECOMMENDED RESOURCE*
A new audio experience of Spurgeon’s best-loved book.
Spurgeon’s All of Grace is a masterpiece. This book is a beautiful description of what God has done to save sinners. I wanted to tell you about a new audio edition of All of Grace — available now on Audible.
This new audio edition is a beautiful reading of Spurgeon’s classic work, but also includes extra content and several hymns.
You can listen to a sample on Audible.
