Charles Spurgeon's "Morning & Evening" Devotional: May 17th

 Charles Spurgeon's "Morning & Evening" Devotional: May 17th Morning “My groaning is not hid from The.” Psalms 38 In theses sad times the psalmist probably wrote Psalms 38. which is entitled He feared that he was forgotten by his God, and therefore pleaded to be remembered. Psalms 38:1 Rebuked I must be, but Lord deal gently with me; chastening I richly deserve, but do not smite me too heavily lest I utterly perish. Psalms 38:3 Spiritual distress is painful to the last degree. However sweet sin may have been in David’s mouth, it was bitter enough when it had once reached his inward parts. Psalms 38:4 , Psalms 38:5 Conscience laid on stripe after stripe till his soul was wounded in a thousand places, and the wounds became loathsome as well as painful. No ulcers and putrefying sores can match the unutterable vileness and pollution of iniquity. Psalms 38:8 Thus the penitent are made to feel the smart of sin. The reprobate feel nothing of this, but go singing merrily down...

Morning and Evening with A.W. Tozer Devotional for May 17

 Morning and Evening with A.W. Tozer Devotional for May 17 Tozer in the Morning Religious Elitism The question of numbers and their relation to success or failure in the work of the Lord is one that disturbs most Christians more than a little.  On the question there are two opposing schools of thought. There are Christians, for instance, who dismiss the whole matter as being beneath them. These correspond to the lovers of high-brow music who firmly refuse to admit that there is anything of any real value other than that composed by Bach, Beethoven and Brahms. They know they are in the minority and glory in the fact, for in their opinion it is a very, very superior minority and they look down their noses at all who enjoy anything less complicated than a symphony.  Of course this is cultural snobbery and tells us a lot more about such persons than they would care to have us know. They remind one of the unco-learned of whom Colton wrote, "So much they scorn the crowd that if...

Days of Heaven on Earth Devotional for May 17

 Days of Heaven on Earth Devotional for May 17 “To him that overcometh, will I give” (Revelation 2:17) A precious secret of Christian life is to have Jesus dwelling within the heart and conquering things that we never could overcome. It is the only secret of power in your life and mine, beloved. Men cannot understand it, nor will the world believe it; but it is true, that God will come to dwell within us, and be the power, and the purity, and the victory, and the joy of our life. It is no longer now, “What is the best that I can do?” but the question is, “What is the best that Christ can do?” It enables us to say, with Paul, in that beautiful passage in Philippians, “I know both how to be abased, and I know how to abound, everywhere and in all things, I am instructed both to be full and to be hungry, both to abound and to suffer need. I can do all things through Christ, which strengtheneth me.” With this knowledge I go forth to meet my testings, and the secret stands me good. It ke...

Charles Spurgeon's "Faith's Checkbook" Devotional for May 17

 Charles Spurgeon's "Faith's Checkbook" Devotional for May 17 “No Need to Stint ”  - Proverbs 28:10 The book of Proverbs is also a book of promises. Promises ought to be proverbs among the people of God. This is a very remarkable one. We are accustomed to think of our good things as in reversion, but here we are told that we shall have them in possession. Not all the malice and cunning of our enemies can work our destruction: they shall fall into the pit which they have digged. Our inheritance is so entailed upon us that we shall not be kept out of it, nor so turned out of the way as to miss it. But what have we now? We have a quiet conscience through the precious blood of Jesus. We have the love of God set upon us beyond all change. We have power with God in prayer in all time of need. We have the providence of God to watch over us, the angels of God to minister to us, and, above all, the Spirit of God to dwell in us. In fact, all things are ours. "Whether thing...

Wayside Chapel Daily Devotional 17th May 2026

Wayside Chapel Daily Devotional 17th May 2026 May 17 1 Samuel 16:7 7But the LORD said to Samuel, "Do not consider his appearance or his height, for I have rejected him. The LORD does not look at the things man looks at. Man looks at the outward appearance, but the LORD looks at the heart." The LORD sent Samuel to anoint a new king from the house of Jesse. When the oldest was presented, a strong, tall warrior, Samuel thought surely this was the man. The Lord responded with our verse for today. From these ancient roots we have the expression, "Don't judge a book by its cover." We are so governed by what our senses tell us. Man makes associations with things he has been through in the past. We all have prejudices of one kind or another, but God sees straight into the heart. The sharpest looking man among us with the warmest smile and most pleasant mannerisms may be the vilest person we ever met. The street person in dirty clothes with not a penny to his name may ha...
