Daily Encounter: Purification of Our Faith for Thursday, April 23, 2026

 Morning and Evening with A.W. Tozer Devotional for April 23 Tozer in the Morning The Unchanging Need of the Human Heart We of the twentieth century have exactly the same basic needs as the people of the first century. We feel the weight of sin and mortality just as they did. We long for peace and life eternal exactly as they did. We are tortured by fears, stunned by losses, grieved by betrayals, hurt by enmities, made heartsick by failures, scared by threatening death, chased by the devil and frightened cold by the thought of coming judgment. They sat in their simple houses and worried by candlelight. We speed along in sleek, shiny cars and do our worrying between stoplights. But the end result is the same for everybody: slow progress backward toward old age and the grave with no place to hide and no friend to help.  God called His Son's name Jesus because He knew the human race needed deliverance from sin; and He sent the angels to announce "Peace on earth" because He k...

 Days of Heaven on Earth Devotional for April 23 “An high priest touched with the feeling of our infirmities” (Hebrews 4:15). Some time ago we were talking with a greatly suffering sister about healing, who was much burdened physically and desirous of being able to trust the Lord for deliverance. After a little conversation we prayed with her, committing her case to the Lord for absolute trust and deliverance as she was prepared to claim. As soon as we closed our prayer she grasped our hand, and asked us to unite with her in the burden that was most upon her heart, and then, without a word of reference to her own healing, or the burden under which she was being crushed to death, she burst into such a prayer for a poor orphan boy, of whom she had just heard that day, as we have never heard surpassed for sympathy and love, imploring God to help him and save him, and sobbing in spasmodic agony of love many times during her prayer, and then she ceased without even referring to her own ...

 Charles Spurgeon's "Morning & Evening" Devotional for April 23 Morning  “If ye love me, keep my commandments.”  1 Samuel 15:1-3 , 1 Samuel 15:9-11 , 1 Samuel 15:13-23  1 Samuel 15:1-3  This wandering people had wantonly attacked the Israelites in the desert, in the most cowardly manner, and this national sin had long been registered in God’s book against them. They were moreover a barbarous race of plunderers, most dangerous to their neighbours and to all settled government. The time was come when divine justice required that they should be brought to condign punishment. Saul was therefore sent of God to be the executioner, and was commanded to do his work thoroughly.  1 Samuel 15:9  This was half-obedience, which is whole rebellion. Many are ready to slay their disreputable sins, but their fashionable transgressions they cannot give up.  1 Samuel 15:11  The rejection of sinners is a great grief to saints: God has no pleasure in the deat...

 Charles Spurgeon's "Faith's Checkbook" Devotional for April 23 “No Fear of Death ”  - Revelation 2:11 The first death we must endure unless the LORD should suddenly come to His temple. For this let us abide in readiness, awaiting it without fear, since Jesus has transformed death from a dreary cavern into a passage leading to glory.  The thing to be feared is not the first but the second death, not the parting of the soul from the body but the final separation of the entire man from God. This is death indeed. This death kills all peace, joy, happiness, hope. When God is gone, all is gone. Such a death is far worse than ceasing to be: it is existence without the life which makes existence worth the having.  Now, if by God’s grace we fight on to the end and conquer in the glorious war, no second death can lay its chill finger upon us, We shall have no fear of death and hell, for we shall receive a crown of life which fadeth not away. How this nerves us for the fight! ...

 Worthy Brief - April 23, 2026 The king has come to restore your place in His Kingdom!  1 Corinthians 15:21-24  For since death is through man, the resurrection of the dead also is through a Man. 22  For as in Adam all die, even so in Christ all will be made alive.  23  But each in his own order: Christ the first-fruit, and afterward they who are Christ's at His coming;  24  then is the end, when He delivers the kingdom to God, even the Father; when He makes to cease all rule and all authority and power.  As the story of the Kingdom unfolds, everything converges in one person -- Yeshua (Jesus), the King who came not only to redeem, but to restore. His mission was never limited to the forgiveness of sin; it reached far deeper into the very fabric of what was lost in the beginning. When He stepped into the earth, He did not come merely to address guilt -- He came to reclaim His kingdom. What Adam surrendered through disobedience, Yeshua came to...
