How quickly we forget God’s great deliverances in our lives. How easily we take for granted the miracles he performed in our past.

When God Visits His Own People – Stephen Olford
Revival is that strange and sovereign work of God in which He visits His own people—restoring, reanimating, and releasing them into the fullness of His blessing.

Give God Praise – Charles Spurgeon
Never think little of praise, since holy angels and saints made perfect count it their lifelong joy. Even the Lord Himself said, “Whoso offereth praise, glorifieth me” (Psalms 50:23).

God is a Rewarder of Them that Seek Him – Ralph Venning
And without faith it is impossible to please him, for whoever would draw near to God must believe that he exists and that he rewards those who seek him.
(Hebrews 11:6 ESV)
He is a rewarder of them that seek him; they shall not seek in vain, if they seek in truth.

A Living Savior – Charles Spurgeon
It is a pity when men only think of a dead Savior or of a baby Savior, carried in the Virgin’s arms, as the church of Rome does. It is our joy to have a living Christ, for while He lives we cannot die, and while He pleads we cannot be condemned. Thus, we are led to remember Him as a living Savior and to give Him honor.

Listening to What God Says – Andrew Murray

A Spring of Living Water – Watchman Nee
The life of the Lord in us is a spring of living water—ever flowing without variation. Nothing is wrong with the inlet: It is the outlet that is obstructed. The water of life does not spring forth because the flow has no way through. Were the outlet cleared, the water of life would flow unceasingly. What a child of God needs is not more life but more flow of life.

True Repentance – George Whitefield
True repentance will entirely change you; the bias of your souls will be changed, then you will delight in God, in Christ, in His law, and in His people.
