Days of Heaven on Earth Devotional: May 21st

 Days of Heaven on Earth Devotional: May 21st “We will come unto Him and make our abode with Him” (John 14:23) The Bible has always held out two great promises respecting Christ. First, I will come to you; and, second, I will come into you. For four thousand years the world looked forward to the fulfilment of the first. The other is the secret which Paul says has been hid from ages and generations, but is now made manifest to His saints, which is Christ in you, the hope of glory. This is just as great a revelation of God as the incarnation of Jesus, for it makes you like Christ, as free from sin as He is. If Christ is in you, what will be the consequences? Why, He will put you aside entirely. The I in you will go. You will say, “Not I, but Christ.” Christ undertakes your battles for you. Christ becomes purity and grace and strength in you. You do not try to attain unto these things, but you know you have obtained them in Him. It is glorious rest with the Master. Jesus does not say,...

Charles Spurgeon's "Morning & Evening" Devotional: May 21st

 Charles Spurgeon's "Morning & Evening" Devotional: May 21st Morning “His name shall be continued as long as the sun.” Psalms 72 We will now read David’s Psalm for Solomon, which still more fully refers to our Lord Jesus Christ. Psalms 72:1-20 David’s heart was glad at the foresight of the glories of his son Solomon, but far more did he rejoice as his prophetic eye foresaw the greater splendours of the throne of the Messiah. At the second coming of the Lord Jesus, this Psalm will have a grand fulfilment, and meanwhile it is for us by prayer and effort to extend his kingdom. If anything can warm the heart of the Christian, it is the prospect of the Redeemer’s universal reign, and reign he will despite all his foes. The Lord Jehovah’s power and faithfulness are pledged to give our Lord Jesus the heathen for his inheritance, and, therefore, we may rest fully assured that it will be done. Jesus has fought the fight and won the victory, therefore will the Lord divide him a...

Charles Spurgeon's "Faith's Checkbook" Devotional: May 21st

 Charles Spurgeon's "Faith's Checkbook" Devotional: May 21st “Rain Without Clouds? Never! ” - Ecclesiastes 11:3 Why, then, do we dread the clouds which now darken our sky? True, for a while they hide the sun, but the sun is not quenched; He will shine out again before long. Meanwhile those black clouds are filled with rain; and the blacker they are, the more likely they are to yield plentiful showers. How can we have rain without clouds? Our troubles have always brought us blessings, and they always will. They are the black chariots of bright grace. These clouds will empty themselves before long, and every tender herb will be the gladder for the shower. Our God may drench us with grief, but He will not drown us with wrath; nay, He will refresh us with mercy. Our LORD’s love letters often come to us in black-edged envelopes. His wagons rumble, but they are loaded with benefits. His rod blossoms with sweet flowers and nourishing fruits. Let us not worry about the clouds...

Morning and Evening with A.W. Tozer Devotional: May 21st

 Morning and Evening with A.W. Tozer Devotional: May 21st Tozer in the Morning Advertizing Our Imperfections Our Lofty Idealism would argue that all Christians should be perfect, but a blunt realism forces us to admit that perfection is rare even among the saints. The part of wisdom is to accept our Christian brothers and sisters for what they are rather than for what they should be. We do not wish to excuse the laziness of the saints or to provide carnality with a place to hide, but it is necessary that we face facts. And the plain fact is that the average Christian--even true Christian--is yet a long way from being like Christ in character and life. There is much that is imperfect about us, and it is fitting that we recognize it and call upon God for charity to put up with one another. The perfect church is not on this earth. The most spiritual church is sure to have in it some who are still bothered by the flesh. An old Italian proverb says, "He that will have none but a perfec...

Worthy Brief - May 20, 2026

 Worthy Brief - May 20, 2026 The risen King is still forming Kingdom witnesses! Acts 1:3  to whom He also presented Himself alive after His suffering by many infallible proofs, being seen by them during forty days and speaking of the things pertaining to the kingdom of God.  Forty days mattered. Luke could have simply told us that Yeshua (Jesus) appeared to His apostles after the resurrection. But he gives us the number. Yeshua was seen by them for forty days, “speaking of the things pertaining to the kingdom of God” [Acts 1:3]. This was not an incidental season. This was a transition. This was commissioning from the mouth of the resurrected King. In Scripture, forty often marks a people being formed for what comes next. Moses was on Sinai for forty days as Israel received covenant instruction [Exodus 24:18]. Israel spent forty years in the wilderness, during which a redeemed people had to learn to live as a covenant nation [Deuteronomy 8:2]. Elijah went forty days in the...

Wayside Chapel Daily Devotional 21st May 2026

 Wayside Chapel Daily Devotional 21st May 2026 May 21 1 Samuel 18:3-4 3And Jonathan made a covenant with David because he loved him as himself. 4Jonathan took off the robe he was wearing and gave it to David, along with his tunic, and even his sword, his bow and his belt. One of the ancient covenants that remained from tribal days was this one that Jonathan entered with David. Jonathan had the same heart of faith in God and His ability to defeat the enemies in life. When he heard David speak, his soul resonated with the same tone of faith and courage in God. He loved him as himself. He saw his own heart toward God in David. You may have felt something like this when you heard a believer share his or her testimony. This covenant took the form of the exchange of clothing and weapons. It was, in symbolic style, saying that my possessions are yours and your enemies are mine. It is not written that David gave his clothes and weapons to Jonathan, but as a person of lower class and wealth...
