Charles Spurgeon's "Morning & Evening" Devotional: August 15th

 Charles Spurgeon's "Morning & Evening" Devotional: August 15th Morning “He received from God the Father honour and glory.” Matthew 3 Matthew 3:1-3 As the priests commenced their service at thirty, it was probably at that age that John began publicly to teach. He commenced with a message most appropriate to the coming of the Saviour. Matthew 3:4 He was dressed as Elijah had been, and lived a self-denying, ascetic life, in keeping with the ministry of repentance. Matthew 3:5 , Matthew 3:6 All ranks and classes came to him; he stirred the whole south of Palestine with his energetic ministry. To all men he addressed suitable words of rebuke and warning. Matthew 3:7-9 He bade them lay aside their boastings, and seriously give themselves up to repentance. This bold address would be sure to make them very angry, but John, like Elias, feared them not. Matthew 3:10 There was to be an end of all pretence and hypocrisy. For many years formalists and boastful professors had been...

Days of Heaven on Earth Devotional for August 15

 Days of Heaven on Earth Devotional for August 15  “He will guide you into all truth” (John 16:13) The Holy Ghost does not come to give us extraordinary manifestations, but to give its life and light, and the nearer we come to Him, the more simple will His illumination and leading be. He comes to “guide us into all truth.” He comes to shed light upon our own hearts, and to show us ourselves. He comes to reveal Christ, to give, and then to illumine, the Holy Scriptures, and to make Divine realities vivid and clear to our spiritual apprehension. He comes as a Spirit of wisdom and revelation in the knowledge of Christ, to “enlighten the eyes of our understanding, that we may know what is the hope of His calling, and what the riches of the glory of His inheritance in the saints, and what is the exceeding greatness of His power to us-ward who believe, according to the working of His mighty power.” Spirit of Power! with heavenly fire, Our souls endue, our tongues inspire; Stretch fo...

Charles Spurgeon's "Faith's Checkbook" Devotional for August 15

 Charles Spurgeon's "Faith's Checkbook" Devotional for August 15 “A Name Guarantee ”  - John 14:13 It is not every believer who has yet learned to pray in Christ’s name. To ask not only for His sake, but in His name, as authorized by Him, is a high order of prayer. We would not dare to ask for some things in that blessed name, for it would be a wretched profanation of it; but when the petition is so clearly right that we dare set the name of Jesus to it, then it must be granted.  Prayer is all the more sure to succeed because it is for the Father’s glory through the Son. It glorifies His truth, His faithfulness, His power, His grace, The granting of prayer, when offered in the name of Jesus, reveals the Father’s love to Him, and the honor which He has put upon Him. The glory of Jesus and of the Father are so wrapped up together that the grace which magnifies the one magnifies the other. The channel is made famous through the fullness of the fountain, and the fountain ...

Morning and Evening with A.W. Tozer Devotional for August 15

 Morning and Evening with A.W. Tozer Devotional for August 15 Tozer in the Morning Where Have Those Hymnals Gone? In order to express myself more freely on a matter that lies very near to my heart, I shall waive the rather stilted editorial we and speak in the first person.  The matter I have in mind is the place of the hymnbook in the devotional life of the Christian. For purposes of inward devotion, there is only one book to be placed before the hymnal, and that of course is the Bible. I say without qualification, after the Sacred Scriptures, the next best companion for the soul is a good hymnal. For the child of God, the Bible is the book of all books, to be reverenced, loved, pored over endlessly and feasted upon as living bread and manna for the soul. It is the first-best book, the only indispensable book. To ignore it or neglect it is to doom our minds to error and our hearts to starvation. After the Bible, the hymn book is next. And remember, I do not say a songbook or ...

Wayside Chapel Daily Devotional 15th August 2026

Wayside Chapel Daily Devotional 15th August 2026 August 15 2 Chronicles 24:17-18 17After the death of Jehoiada, the officials of Judah came and paid homage to the king, and he listened to them. 18They abandoned the temple of the LORD, the God of their fathers, and worshiped Asherah poles and idols. Because of their guilt, God's anger came upon Judah and Jerusalem. Jehoiada the priest was a very positive influence on Joash and upon the nation of Judah. God's grace allowed him to live to be 130 years old. Once he died, the officials of Judah began to exert their influence upon Joash. Instead of influencing the world around them with their faith in Jehovah, they wanted to be like the world and worship gods of those nations. Joash was so influenced by them that the temple of God, that he had insisted be repaired, fell into disuse. God sent prophets to warn the people that they would not prosper if they continued down this path. Today, in our culture, we need to be the voice that wa...
