Charles Spurgeon's "Morning & Evening" Devotional: September 20th

 Charles Spurgeon's "Morning & Evening" Devotional: September 20th Morning “Strive to enter in at the strait gate.” Luke 13:23-35 Luke 13:23 , Luke 13:24 A question which has been asked many times since. If a book could be published by authority detailing the number of the saved, many would hasten to read it. It would be far more wise to ask, “Shall I be saved?” We may get a clear answer to that personal inquiry, but upon the larger question we are not yet in possession of more than clouded light. “If but three persons are to be saved, why should not I be one of them?” was a sensible remark we once heard from an earnest seeker. Luke 13:23 , Luke 13:24 Now is the accepted time, but ere long the day of grace and of this mortal life will end, and then it will be too late to seek for mercy. Luke 13:25 , Luke 13:26 No doubt many rely upon the means of grace and participation in the sacraments; their confidence will utterly fail them at the last. Luke 13:27 , Luke 13:28 Pus...

Days of Heaven on Earth Devotional for September 20

 Days of Heaven on Earth Devotional for September 20 “They shall not be ashamed that wait” (Isaiah 49:23) Often He calls us aside from our work for a season and bids us be still and learn ere we go forth again to minister. Especially is this so when there has been some serious break, some sudden failure and some radical defect in our work. There is no time lost in such waiting hours. Fleeing from his enemies the ancient knight found that his horse needed to be reshod. Prudence seemed to urge him without delay, but higher wisdom taught him to halt a few minutes at the blacksmith’s forge by the way to have the shoe replaced, and although he heard the feet of his pursuers galloping hard behind, yet he waited those minutes until his charger was refitted for his flight, and then, leaping into his saddle just as they appeared a hundred yards away, he dashed away from them with the fleetness of the wind, and knew that his halting had hastened his escape. So often God bids us tarry ere we ...

Morning and Evening with A.W. Tozer Devotional for September 20

 Morning and Evening with A.W. Tozer Devotional for September 20 Tozer in the Morning ARE WE MIRED DOWN? God will speak to us if we read and study and obey the Word of God! But when He does speak, we should speak back to Him in prayer and devotion. Otherwise, we are among the Christians who are mired down right where we are. Many in our congregations have grown older and yet are not one inch farther up the mountain than on that day when the sun first arose on them in conversion. In fact, some are not even as far advanced along the way with God as they were a few years ago. If these things are true, I can only conclude that there are "common" Christians, men and women who no longer hear the Lord speaking to them as they should. Can they really think that this half-way Christian life is the best that we can know? In the face of what Christ offers us, how can we settle for so little? It is a tragedy of our time that so many are settling for less than the Lord is willing to give!...

Charles Spurgeon's "Faith's Checkbook" Devotional for September 20

 Charles Spurgeon's "Faith's Checkbook" Devotional for September 20 “Perfect Willingness ”  - Psalms 110:3 Blessed be the God of grace that it is so! He has a people whom He has chosen from of old to be His peculiar portion. These by nature have wills as stubborn as the rest of the froward sons of Adam; but when the day of His power comes and grace displays its omnipotence, they become willing to repent and to believe in Jesus. None are saved unwillingly, but the will is made sweetly to yield itself. What a wondrous power is this, which never violates the will and yet rules it! God does not break the lock, but He opens it by a master key which He alone can handle.  Now are we willing to be, to do, or to suffer as the LORD wills. If at any time we grow rebellious, He has but to come to us with power, and straightway we run in the way of His commands with all our hearts. May this be a day of power with me as to some noble effort for the glory of God and the good of my f...

Wayside Chapel Daily Devotional 20th September 2026

 Wayside Chapel Daily Devotional 20th September 2026 September 20 Job 23:10-12 10But he knows the way that I take; when he has tested me, I will come forth as gold. 11My feet have closely followed his steps; I have kept to his way without turning aside. 12I have not departed from the commands of his lips; I have treasured the words of his mouth more than my daily bread. Job's friends continued to insist that he is being punished for his sin. They kept telling him that the wicked are always punished and the righteous are always blessed. Job told them that this was just not true. Many wicked live in prosperity and die in peace. Many righteous suffer without a cause that can be determined. He told them their counsel was just plain lies. We'd like to think that judgment for the wicked is always swift and observable, but God often reserves judgment for the Day of Judgment. Job had a firm conviction that he had not intentionally committed anything for which the Lord would deal like t...
