Charles Spurgeon's "Faith's Checkbook" Devotional for April 30

 Charles Spurgeon's "Faith's Checkbook" Devotional for April 30 “The Overcomer’s Reward ”  - Revelation 2:17 My heart, be thou stirred up to persevere in the holy war, for the reward of victory is great. Today we eat of heavenly food which falls about our camps; the food of the wilderness, the food which comes from heaven, the food which never fails the pilgrims to Canaan. But there is reserved for us in Christ Jesus a still higher degree of spiritual life and a food for it which, as yet, is hidden from our experience. In the golden pot which was laid up in the ark there was a portion of manna hidden away, which though kept for ages never grew stale. No one ever saw it; it was hid with the Ark of the Covenant, in the Holy of Holies. Even so, the highest life of the believer is hid with Christ, in God. We shall come to it soon, Being made victorious through the grace of our LORD Jesus, we shall eat of the King’s meat and feed upon royal dainties. We shall feed upon Jes...

Morning and Evening with A.W. Tozer Devotional for April 30

 Morning and Evening with A.W. Tozer Devotional for April 30 Tozer in the Morning CHRIST IS NOT DIVIDED Much of our full gospel literature and much of our preaching tend to perpetuate a misunderstanding of what the Bible says about obedience and Christian discipleship. I think the following is a fair statement of what I was taught in my early Christian experience and before I began to pray and study and anguish over the whole matter: "We are saved by accepting Christ as our Savior." "We are sanctified by accepting Christ as our Lord." "We may do the first without doing the second." What a tragedy that in our day we often hear the gospel appeal made in this way: "Come to Jesus! You do not have to obey anyone. You do not have to give up anything. Just come to Him and believe in Him as Savior!" The fact that we hear this everywhere does not make it right! To urge men and women to believe in a divided Christ is bad teaching-for no one can receive a h...

Charles Spurgeon's "Morning & Evening" Devotional for April 30

 Charles Spurgeon's "Morning & Evening" Devotional for April 30 Morning  “This man receiveth sinners.”  1 Samuel 22:1 , 1 Samuel 22:2  Finding himself in great danger among the Philistines, David returned to his own land, which he ought never to have left.  1 Samuel 22:1  where he found huge caverns capable of affording shelter and concealment for large numbers of persons. There David was in his right position, and might look for prosperity. He was in the place of separation, where believers should be found:  1 Samuel 22:2  In this he became a type of our Lord Jesus, of whom it was said, “This man receiveth sinners and eateth with them.” David’s followers had been rendered desperate by the oppressions of Saul, but though they were bold and warlike men, they do not appear to have been evil in character; rather from their sympathy with David, and their general conduct, we may believe them to have been the best men in the kingdom, who, from that ...

Days of Heaven on Earth Devotional for April 30

 Days of Heaven on Earth Devotional for April 30 “Love believeth all things” (1 Corinthians 13:7) Beautiful is the expression in the Book of Isaiah which reflects with exceeding sweetness the love of our dear Lord. He said, “They are My people, children that will not lie; so He was their Saviour.” They did lie, but He would not believe it. At least He speaks as if He would not believe it in the greatness of His love, because they were His people. He has not seen iniquity in Jacob nor perversity in Israel. There is plenty of it to see, and the devil sees it all, and a good many people are only too glad to see it; but the dear Father will not see it. He covers it with His love and the precious blood of His dear atoning Son. Such a wonderful love ought surely to make us gentler to others, and more anxious to cause our Father less need to hide His loving eyes from our imperfections and faults. If we have the mind and heart of Christ, we shall clothe even the world with those graces whi...

Worthy Brief - April 30, 2026

 Worthy Brief - April 30, 2026 Align yourself with the restoration God is unfolding now!  Revelation 22:1-5 Then the angel showed me the river of the water of life, bright as crystal, flowing from the throne of God and of the Lamb  2 through the middle of the street of the city; also, on either side of the river, the tree of life with its twelve kinds of fruit, yielding its fruit each month. The leaves of the tree were for the healing of the nations. 3 No longer will there be anything accursed, but the throne of God and of the Lamb will be in it, and his servants will worship him.  4 They will see his face, and his name will be on their foreheads. 5 And night will be no more. They will need no light of lamp or sun, for the Lord God will be their light, and they will reign forever and ever.  The Hebrew sages recognized something about Scripture that many modern readers overlook -- the Torah is not merely linear; it moves with intentional structure, often in the f...

Wayside Chapel Daily Devotional 30th April 2026

 Wayside Chapel Daily Devotional 30th April 2026 April 30 Joshua 22:7b-8 7b When Joshua sent them home, he blessed them, 8saying, "Return to your homes with your great wealth-with large herds of livestock, with silver, gold, bronze and iron, and a great quantity of clothing-and divide with your brothers the plunder from your enemies." The tribes of Gad, Rueben, and half of Manasseh had done their duty. They stayed more than five extra years fighting alongside their brothers to secure a place for them. Because of their integrity in keeping their word they were rewarded with their portion of the spoils from the enemies. They were not going back empty handed. Those that stayed behind to watch out for their territory and protect the women and children were to receive their share of the spoils of war. They hadn't risked their lives to capture in battle, but they did do the job assigned to them. I imagine the homes these men returned to were in much better shape because of thos...
