Days of Heaven on Earth Devotional: June 5th

 Days of Heaven on Earth Devotional: June 5th “My heart is fixed, O God” (Psalms 66:7) We do not always feel joyful, but we are always to count it joy. This word reckon is one of the keywords of Scripture. It is the same word used about our being dead. We are painfully conscious of something which would gladly return to life. But we are to treat ourselves as dead, and neither fear nor obey the old nature. So we are to reckon the thing that comes a blessing; we are determined to rejoice, to say, “My heart is fixed, Lord; I will sing and give praises.” This rejoicing by faith will soon become a habit, and will ever bring speedily the spirit of gladness and the spontaneous overflow of praise. Then, although the fig tree may wither and no fruit appear in the vines, the labor of the olive fail, and the field yield no increase, the herd be cut off from the stall, and the cattle from the field, yet will we rejoice in the Lord and joy in the God of our salvation. Though the everlasting mou...

Charles Spurgeon's "Morning & Evening" Devotional: June 5th

 Charles Spurgeon's "Morning & Evening" Devotional: June 5th Morning “The root of the matter is found in him.” 1 Kings 14:1-9 , 1 Kings 14:12 , 1 Kings 14:13 , 1 Kings 14:17 , 1 Kings 14:18 1 Kings 14:1-3 Bad men cannot help respecting God’s true messengers. Why did not Jeroboam go to the prophets of the calves? The ungodly and those who follow false religions lose all confidence in their notions in times of necessity, and begin to look about them for better comfort. Ahijah’s word had been powerful with the king before, and therefore he sent to him again. Many a sinner has a something in his conscience which bears witness to the Lord’s minister, for his word has informer times been full of power. 1 Kings 14:5 , 1 Kings 14:6 Those who think to hide themselves from God will be utterly confounded, for he will unmask them to their everlasting shame. Sinners now appear in the garb of saints, but the Lord knoweth them that are his. 1 Kings 14:7-9 Therefore the Lord declared...

Charles Spurgeon's "Faith's Checkbook" Devotional: June 5th

 Charles Spurgeon's "Faith's Checkbook" Devotional: June 5th “Is There a Difference? ” - Exodus 11:7 What! Has God power over the tongues of dogs! Can he keep ours from barking? Yes, it is even so. He can prevent an Egyptian dog from worrying one of the lambs of Israel’s flock. Doth God silence dogs, and doggish ones among men, and the great dog at hell’s gate? Then let us move on our way without fear. If He lets dogs move their tongues, yet He can stop their teeth. They may make a dreadful noise and still do us no real harm. Yet, how sweet is quiet! How delightful to move about among enemies and perceive that God maketh them to be at peace with us! Like Daniel in the den of lions we are unhurt amid destroyers. Oh, that today this word of the LORD to Israel might be true to me! Does the dog worry me? I will tell my LORD about him. LORD, he does not care for my pleadings; do Thou speak the word of power, and he must lie down. Give me peace, O my God, and let me see Thy...
