Christian Life

I Believe Jesus – DL Moody

I believe Jesus of Nazareth sooner than those unbelievers who say you do not need to be born again.

– DL Moody –
from The Way to God

God’s Special Providence – William Perkins

The consideration of God’s special providence should teach you to think of the presence of God as all-seeing and all-knowing, to seek his help, and also to believe that you are helped in all things, and finally that there is no danger so terrible but he is able and willing to deliver you from it, when it is fit.

– William Perkins –
from The Art of Prophesying, 1592

Scripture Reading is our Spiritual Mealtime – Charles Spurgeon

Scripture reading is our spiritual meal-time. Sound the gong and call in every faculty to the Lord’s own table to feast upon the precious meat which is now to be partaken of; or, rather, ring the church bell as for worship, for the studying of the Holy Scripture ought to be as solemn a deed as when we sing the hymns upon the Sabbath day in the courts of Lord’s house.

– Charles Spurgeon –
From Council for Christian Workers

The Lord Will Provide – Charles Spurgeon

Onward, soldiers of the cross, where Jesus has led the way. The eternal God is your refuge, and underneath you are the everlasting arms. You are not called upon to go a warfare at your own charges, neither are you left alone in the battle: the banner which waves over you bears the soul-assuring motto, “Jehovah-Jireh, the Lord will provide.”

– Charles Spurgeon –

The Heroic Spirit – William Gurnall

Cowards never won heaven. Do not claim that you are begotten of God and have His royal blood running in your veins unless you can prove your lineage by this heroic spirit: to dare to be holy in spite of men and devils.

– William Gurnall –
