Days of Heaven on Earth Devotional: May 31st

 Days of Heaven on Earth Devotional: May 31st “Whosoever therefore shall humble himself as this little child” (Matthew 18:4) You will never get a humble heart until it is born from above, from the heart of Christ. For man has lost his own humanity and alas, too often has a demon heart. God wants us, as Christians, to be simple, human, approachable and childlike. The Christians that we know and love best, and that are nearest to the Lord, are the most simple. Whenever we grow stilted we are only fit for a picture gallery, and we are only good on a pedestal; but, if we are going to live among men and love and save them, we must be approachable and human. All stiffness is but another form of self-consciousness. Ask Christ for a human heart, for a smile that will be as natural as your little child’s in your presence. Oh, how much Christ did by little touches! He never would have got at the woman of Samaria if He had come to her as the prophet. He sat down, a tired man, and said: “Give ...

Charles Spurgeon's "Morning & Evening" Devotional: May 31st

 Charles Spurgeon's "Morning & Evening" Devotional: May 31st Morning “A greater than Solomon is here.” 1 Kings 10:1-13 1 Kings 10:1 Far off as she was, the glory of Solomon reached her, and she was moved to visit him, not only out of curiosity to behold his splendour, but from religious motives, that she might know more concerning the name of the Lord. Alas, there are thousands who show no interest in Jesus, though he is near them, and his gospel is preached in their streets. Sad is it that Solomon should attract a stranger so far away, and Jesus should be neglected by those who are near. 1 Kings 10:3 When sinners come to Jesus he will solve all their difficult questions, and both reveal and remove all their secret disquietudes. He is ever ready to communicate of his wisdom to all who come unto him, and they shall never in any instance find that their difficulties surpass his skill. 1 Kings 10:4-9 In like manner, although the gospel report concerning King Jesus greatl...

Charles Spurgeon's "Faith's Checkbook" Devotional: May 31st

 Charles Spurgeon's "Faith's Checkbook" Devotional: May 31st “Be of Good Cheer ” - John 16:33 My LORD’s words are true as to the tribulation. I have my share of it beyond all doubt. The flail is not hung up out of the way, nor can I hope that it will be laid aside so long as I lie upon the threshing floor, How can I look to be at home in the enemy’s country, joyful while in exile, or comfortable in a wilderness? This is not my rest. This is the place of the furnace, and the forge, and the hammer. My experience tallies with my LORD’s words. I note how He bids me "be of good cheer." Alas! I am far too apt to be downcast. My spirit soon sinks when I am sorely tried. But I must not give way to this feeling. When my LORD bids me cheer up I must not dare to be cast down. What is the argument which He uses to encourage me? Why, it is His own victory. He says, "I have overcome the world." His battle was much more severe than mine. I have not yet resisted u...

Morning and Evening with A.W. Tozer Devotional: May 31st

 Morning and Evening with A.W. Tozer Devotional: May 31st Tozer in the Morning The From's and To's The evangelical Church today is in the awkward position of being wrong while it is right, and a little preposition makes the difference. One place where we are wrong while we are right is in the relative stress we lay upon the prepositions to and from when they follow the word saved. For a long generation we have been holding the letter of truth while at the same time we have been moving away from it in spirit because we have been preoccupied with what we are saved from rather than what we have been saved to. The right relative importance of the two concepts is set forth by Paul in his first epistle to the Thessalonians: "Ye turned to God from idols to serve the living and true God; and to wait for his Son from heaven" (1 Thessalonians 1:9-10). The Christian is saved from his past sins. With these he simply has nothing more to do; they are among the things to be forgotte...

 Wayside Chapel Daily Devotional 31st May 2026 May 31 2 Samuel 7:22 22"How great you are, O Sovereign LORD! There is no one like you, and there is no God but you, as we have heard with our own ears. After Nathan delivered God's message to David, David was humbled. He asked God why He should be so good to him and honor his house so greatly. He ran out of words to say in the face of all the goodness of God. He declared that God knew him and yet He was pouring out all this goodness upon him. Then he makes the above statement. A God that could love me like this is a great God! He rules over all that is. There is none that even comes close to comparing with Him. Who else could declare the future with such certainty? There really is no other god but the Sovereign LORD. We have heard the incomparable stories of what He has done. The incomparable God does incomparable acts. You must realize that the promises to David are yours to claim. (Isaiah 55:3) God has been just as good in setti...

Charles Spurgeon's "Faith's Checkbook" Devotional: May 30th

 Charles Spurgeon's "Faith's Checkbook" Devotional: May 30th “Holy Foresight ” - Matthew 26:64 Ah, LORD, Thou wast in Thy lowest state when before Thy persecutors Thou wast made to stand like a criminal! Yet the eyes of Thy faith could see beyond Thy present humiliation into Thy future glory. What words are these, "Nevertheless - hereafter!" I would imitate Thy holy foresight, and in the midst of poverty, or sickness, or slander, I also would say, "Nevertheless - hereafter." Instead of weakness, Thou hast all power; instead of shame, all glory; instead of derision, all worship, Thy cross has not dimmed the splendor of Thy crown, neither has the spittle marred the beauty of Thy face. Say, rather, Thou are the more exalted and honored because of Thy sufferings. So, LORD, I also would take courage from the "hereafter." I would forget the present tribulation in the future triumph. Help thou me by directing me into Thy Father’s love and into T...

Morning and Evening with A.W. Tozer Devotional: May 30th

 Morning and Evening with A.W. Tozer Devotional: May 30th Tozer in the Morning Man - The Dwelling Place of God - Choices Reveal - and Make - Character INTO NINE WORDS, having altogether but eleven syllables, Luke packs a world of universal truth: "Being let go, they went to their own company" (Acts 4:23). Every normal man has a "company," however small, where he feels at home and to which he will return when he is tired of being alone. The important thing about a man is not where he goes when he is compelled to go, but where he goes when he is free to go where he will. The apostles went to jail, and that is not too revealing because they went there against their will; but when they got out of jail and could go where they would they immediately went to the praying company. From this we learn a great deal about them. The choices of life, not the compulsions, reveal character. A man is absent from church Sunday morning. Where is he? If he is in a hospital having his ap...

"'The LORD declares to you that the LORD himself will establish a house for you: 12When your days are over and you rest with your fathers, I will raise up your offspring to succeed you, who will come from your own body, and I will establish his kingdom. 13He is the one who will build a house for my Name, and I will establish the throne of his kingdom forever. David built a fine cedar palace for himself and began to wonder if he shouldn't build a house for God. Nathan told him to do whatever was in his heart, as the LORD was with him. That night the LORD spoke to the prophet Nathan and told him to return to David with a message. Part of that message is today's passage. Buildings are very temporal. The real house is the people that live in it. God told David it was not David that would build a house for God, but God who was going to build a dynasty ...

Worthy Brief - May 29, 2026

 Worthy Brief - May 29, 2026 Do not despise the day of small things! Mark 4:30-32 And he said, “With what can we compare the kingdom of God, or what parable shall we use for it?  31 It is like a grain of mustard seed, which, when sown on the ground, is the smallest of all the seeds on earth,  32 yet when it is sown it grows up and becomes larger than all the garden plants and puts out large branches, so that the birds of the air can make nests in its shade.” Yeshua (Jesus) asked a question: "To what shall we compare the kingdom of God?" (Mark 4:30). They may have expected Him to speak of armies, thrones, and the kind of power that makes empires tremble. They were waiting for the Kingdom to arrive the way earthly kingdoms always arrive — loud, visible, and impossible to ignore. But Yeshua reached for something small. A mustard seed. So small it could be overlooked in the palm of a hand. So ordinary that most people would never stop to notice it.  And with that simple ...

Once David saw that the home in which he left the ark was blessed, He decided to go ahead and bring it to the tabernacle in Jerusalem. This time, he had it carried correctly by the priests. As it was arriving in Jerusalem, he was so overjoyed that he leaped and danced in only an ephod. An ephod was a worshiper's vest that was highly decorated. It may have come down to the waist or have covered the hips. Either way, his leaping and dancing about must have exposed him. Michael, Saul's daughter, ...

Charles Spurgeon's "Morning & Evening" Devotional: May 28th

 Charles Spurgeon's "Morning & Evening" Devotional: May 28th Morning “Yea, He is altogether lovely.” Song of Solomon 5:2-16 We will again read in the Song, giving the language in its correct form. The bride hears the Bridegroom knocking at her door, but she excuses herself from rising to admit him, and acts as unkindly to him, as, alas, we too often have done to our Lord Jesus. The whole story is rehearsed in choicest song in the bride Song of Solomon 5:2 Observe her indolent excuses. How cruel she is to her friend! How selfish! How self-indulgent! Have we not cause to blush, as in her conduct we see our own? Song of Solomon 5:3-8 Although the spouse had been sadly negligent, and so had grieved her Lord, and made him hide his face from her, yet she still loved him, and therefore was intensely earnest to find him again. She hoped that perhaps her Lord would listen to others, even if he closed his ear for a while to her, and therefore she begged the daughters of Jerusal...

Days of Heaven on Earth Devotional for May 28

 Days of Heaven on Earth Devotional for May 28 “He humbled Himself” (Philippians 2:8) One of the hardest things for a lofty and superior nature is to be under authority, to renounce his own will, and to take a place of subjection. But Christ took upon Him the form of a servant, gave up His independence, His right to please Himself, His liberty of choice, and after having from eternal ages known only to command, gave Himself up only to obey. I have seen occasionally the man who was once a wealthy employer a clerk in the same store. It was not an easy or graceful position, I assure you. But Jesus was such a perfect servant that His Father said: “Behold, My Servant in whom My soul delighteth.” All His life His watchword was, “The Son of Man came to minister.” “I am among you as He that doth serve.” “I can do nothing of Myself.” “Not My will, but Thine, be done.” Have you, beloved, learned the servant’s place?  And once more, “He became obedient unto death, even the death of the c...

Morning and Evening with A.W. Tozer Devotional for May 28

 Morning and Evening with A.W. Tozer Devotional for May 28 Tozer in the Morning Our Model Intercessor Two other considerations may help us here. One is that our Lord did on at least one occasion pray for sinners. "Father, forgive them, for they do not know what they are doing," was a request made to God on behalf of evil men. Is it not reasonable that if Christ prayed for sinners once, He may be expected to pray for them again? Also we must remember that Jesus was a Son of man and frequently referred to Himself by that title. As such, He had and has a relationship to the whole human race. Is it thinkable that He would not pray for the race to which He belonged?  I realize that we are on holy ground right here, and common modesty would urge us to withhold any dogmatic judgments. But I believe that the question, Does our Lord pray for the unsaved? may be answered truthfully as follows: (1) As High Priest of His own redeemed people, Christ prays an efficacious prayer of interces...

Charles Spurgeon's "Faith's Checkbook" Devotional for May 28

 Charles Spurgeon's "Faith's Checkbook" Devotional for May 28 “Remind God of His Promise ”  - Genesis 32:12 This is the sure way of prevailing with the LORD in prayer. We may humbly remind Him of what He has said. Our faithful God will never run back from His word, nor will He leave it unfulfilled; yet He loves to be enquired of by His people and put in mind of His promise. This is refreshing to their memories, reviving to their faith, and renewing to their hope. God’s Word is given, not for His sake, but for ours. His purposes are settled, and He needs nothing to bind Him to His design of doing His people good; but He gives the promise for our strengthening and comfort. Hence He wishes us to plead it and say to Him, "Thou saidst."  "I will surely do thee good" is just the essence of all the LORD’s gracious sayings, Lay a special stress on the word surely. He will do us good, real good, tasting good, only good, every good. He will make us good, and...

Also there was no more sea.  2 Then I, John, saw the holy city, New Jerusalem, coming down out of heaven from God, prepared as a bride adorned for her husband. 3 And I heard a loud voice from heaven saying, "Behold, the tabernacle of God is with men, and He will dwell with them, and they shall be His people. God Himself will be with them and be their God.  4  And God will wipe away every tear from their eyes; there shall be no more death, nor sorrow, nor crying. There shall be no more pain, for the former things have passed away."  5  Then He who sat on the throne said, "Behold, I make all things new." And He said to me, "Write, for these words are true and faithful."  Even the thousand-year reign of Yeshua (Jesus), as glorious as it will be, is not the final ...

 Wayside Chapel Daily Devotional 28th May 2026 May 28 2 Samuel 6:6-7 (KJV) 6And when they came to Nachon's threshingfloor, Uzzah put forth his hand to the ark of God, and took hold of it; for the oxen shook it. 7And the anger of the LORD was kindled against Uzzah; and God smote him there for his error; and there he died by the ark of God. David wanted to bring the Ark of the Covenant to Jerusalem. He had a new cart built and had the ark put on it with oxen pulling the cart. Everyone went before the ark playing musical instruments and singing. When they had come to Nachon's threshingfloor, the ark looked like it might tip over. One of the men alongside it, Uzzah, reached out to steady it. He fell down dead. It seems very harsh to us today, and it did to David. The next time David moved the ark, he did so according to the Law. The priests were supposed to carry the ark with special poles. David learned that you cannot add to God's law and expect to be free of problems. God...

Charles Spurgeon's "Morning & Evening" Devotional: May 27th

 Charles Spurgeon's "Morning & Evening" Devotional: May 27th Morning “Now will I sing to my Well-beloved a song.” Song of Song of Solomon 3:6-11 That the poetical nature of the Song of Solomon may be more clearly seen, we have now before us a passage in which the original form of the Canticle is preserved, and its meaning made more clear by an improved translation. Song of Song of Solomon 3:6 The first speakers are the Daughters of Jerusalem. Song of Song of Solomon 3:7-11 The Friends of the Bridegroom then reply. Then follows a song of The King, in which he extols the beauty of his bride. Song of Song of Solomon 4:1-7 Song of Song of Solomon 4:1-7 In the first song the king is seen in his travelling palanquin or chariot-bed, coming up from the wilderness. We may expound the picture as representing our Lord and King going up into his glory from this wilderness world. Mark the sweet odours of his merits, and the smoke of his sacrifice, observe also the attendant angels...

Days of Heaven on Earth Devotional for May 27

 Days of Heaven on Earth Devotional for May 27 “The government shall be upon His shoulder” (Isaiah 9:6) You cannot make the heart restful by stopping its beating. Belladonna will do that, but that is not rest. Let the breath of life come—God’s life and strength—and there will be sweet rest. Home ties and family affection will not bring it. Deliverance from trouble will not bring it. Many a tried heart has said: “If this great trouble was only gone, I should have rest.” But as soon as one goes another comes. The poor, wounded deer on the mountain side, thinks if he could only bathe in the old mountain stream he would have rest. But the arrow is in its flesh and there is no rest for it till the wound is healed. It is as sore in the mountain lake as on the plain. We shall never have God’s rest and peace in the heart till we have given everything up to Christ—even our work—and believe He has taken it all, and we have only to keep still and trust. It is necessary to walk in holy obedien...

Morning and Evening with A.W. Tozer Devotional for May 27

 Morning and Evening with A.W. Tozer Devotional for May 27 Tozer in the Morning The Holy are Humble The Church in America suffered a greater loss than she has since discovered when she rejected the example of good men and chose for her pattern the celebrity of the hour. Human greatness cannot be determined by popularity polls nor by the number of lines any man rates in the public press. It is altogether unlikely that we know who our greatest men are. One thing is sure, however--the greatest man alive today is the best man alive today. That is not open to debate. To discover the good great man (granted that it would be to our profit to do so) would require more than human wisdom. For the holy man is also the humble man and the humble man will not advertise himself nor allow others to do it for him. Spiritual virtues run deep and silent. Like the tide or the pull of gravitation or the shining of the sun, they work without noise, but their gracious ministrations are felt around the wh...

Charles Spurgeon's "Faith's Checkbook" Devotional for May 27

 Charles Spurgeon's "Faith's Checkbook" Devotional for May 27 “As the Life -- So the Fruit ”  - 2 Peter 1:8 If we desire to glorify our LORD by fruitfulness, we must have certain things within us; for nothing can come out of us which is not first of all within us. We must begin with faith, which is the groundwork of all the virtues; and then diligently add to it virtue, knowledge, temperance, and patience. With these we must have godliness and brotherly love. All these put together will most assuredly cause us to produce, as our life fruit, the clusters of usefulness, and we shall not be mere idle knowers but real doers of the Word. These holy things must not only be in us, but abound, or we shall be barren. Fruit is the overflow of life, and we must be full before we can flow over.  We have noticed men of considerable parts and opportunities who have never succeeded in doing real good in the conversion of souls; and after close observation we have concluded that they...

Worthy Brief - May 27, 2026

 Worthy Brief - May 27, 2026 Understand what the feasts were always revealing! Colossians 2:16-17 So let no one judge you in food or in drink, or regarding a festival or a new moon or sabbaths, which are a shadow of things to come, but the substance is of Christ. You cannot fully understand the message of the Kingdom apart from the calendar of the King. God did not scatter His promises randomly across history. He embedded them in appointed times — fixed, recurring, prophetic markers that He Himself established and that He Himself intends to fulfill. The Hebrew word is moedim (מוֹעֲדִים), and it does not merely mean "holidays" or "festivals." It means "appointed times" — divine appointments set by God before creation, given to Israel, and fulfilled in Yeshua (Jesus). They are not faded remains of Israel's calendar. They are markers in God’s prophetic calendar of the Kingdom, and each one reveals something about where He is taking creation through Yeshua...

Wayside Chapel Daily Devotional 27th May 2026

 Wayside Chapel Daily Devotional 27th May 2026 May 27 1 Samuel 30:22-24 22But all the evil men and troublemakers among David's followers said, "Because they did not go out with us, we will not share with them the plunder we recovered. However, each man may take his wife and children and go." 23David replied, "No, my brothers, you must not do that with what the LORD has given us. He has protected us and handed over to us the forces that came against us. 24Who will listen to what you say? The share of the man who stayed with the supplies is to be the same as that of him who went down to the battle. All will share alike." David and his men returned from a predicament of marching with the Philistines against Judah. The commanders of the Philistines feared David would turn on them so they sent them back before the battle began. Delivered from that situation, they came home to find their city burned and their families taken captive. David didn't act without consul...
