 Charles Spurgeon's "Morning & Evening" Devotional: September 14th Morning “My sheep hear My voice.” John 10:19-40 John 10:19 Christ thus called out his own sheep from the flocks of others. The gospel is a great separater, and every Sabbath day it reveals its power in dividing the sheep from the goats. Those who hear and obey are saved; those who are disobedient are condemned in their own consciences. John 10:22 , John 10:23 winter or stormy, wintry weather John 10:22 , John 10:23 Sheltering himself from the cold, and reaching the people who would there assemble. John 10:25 , John 10:26 This was plain, bold speech. They were none of his, and therefore they had not discerned him. Had they been his chosen, they would have received him joyfully. This doctrine is very irksome to the pride of man. John 10:28-31 The chosen are doubly secure; two hands have grasped them, and in that double security they are beyond all danger. John 10:28-31 They would not hear of his being on...

 Days of Heaven on Earth Devotional for September 14 “For the Lord God will help me, therefore shall I not be confounded; therefore, have I set my face like a flint, and I know I shall not be ashamed” (Isaiah 50:7) This is the language of trust and victory, and it was through this faith, as we are told in a passage in Hebrews, that in His last agony, “Jesus, for the joy that was set before Him, endured the cross, despising the shame.” His life was a life of faith, His death was a victory of faith, His resurrection was a triumph of faith, His mediatorial reign is all one long victory of faith, “From henceforth expecting till all His enemies be made His footstool.” And so, for us He has become the pattern of faith, and in every situation of difficulty, temptation and distress has gone before us waving the banner of trust and triumph, and bidding us to follow in His victorious footsteps. He is the great Pattern Believer. While we must claim our salvation by faith, the Great Forerunner...

 Charles Spurgeon's "Faith's Checkbook" Devotional for September 14 “Mark of Divine Approval ”  - James 1:12 Yes, he is blessed while he is enduring the trial. No eye can see this till he has been anointed with heavenly eye salve. But he must endure it and neither rebel against God nor turn aside from his integrity. He is blessed who has gone through the fire and has not been consumed as a counterfeit.  When the test is over, then comes the hallmark of divine approval -- "the crown of life." As if the LORD said, "Let him live; he has been weighed in the balances, and he is not found wanting." Life is the reward: not mere being, but holy, happy, true existence, the realization of the divine purpose concerning us. Already a higher form of spiritual life and enjoyment crowns those who have safely passed through fiercest trials of faith and love.  The LORD hath promised the crown of life to those who love Him. Only lovers of the LORD will hold out in t...

 Morning and Evening with A.W. Tozer Devotional for September 14 Tozer in the Morning Costly Adjustment to this World To be happy, adjust to the social norm. That is the popular notion but it will not hold up under examination. This norm to which we must adjust-where did it come from? What Moses brought it down from what mount? Where are its credentials? From whence its authority? Since the world insists that I adjust to its beliefs, its moral standards and its practical working philosophies, it should be able to demonstrate that it knows where it is going, what it wants and why, and it should be able to come up with a few million happy men and women who by adjusting to its standards have found life's summum bonum. Furthermore, nations that have had the benefit of such adjustment should be prosperous, peaceful, contented and happy. These stipulations do not appear to me at all unreasonable considering how much depends upon the outcome and how much evangelistic zeal the world puts i...

 Worthy Brief - September 14, 2026  Planted in the world on purpose!  Matthew 13:37-38 He answered and said to them: "He who sows the good seed is the Son of Man. 38  The field is the world, the good seeds are the sons of the kingdom, but the tares are the sons of the wicked one.  When the disciples found Yeshua (Jesus) alone, they asked Him to explain the parable. He identifies each part: the Sower is the Son of Man, the field is the world, and the good seed is the sons of the Kingdom. Notice that in the earlier parable of the sower, the seed was the word, but now the seed is people—believers like you. The King is not just spreading a message across the world; He is purposefully planting His sons and daughters in it. Look at the field—not the church or heaven, but the world. The King does not put His people in a greenhouse. Instead, He places them in the same soil the enemy uses, in the same neighborhoods, workplaces, schools, and nations where the tares grow. ...

 Wayside Chapel Daily Devotional 14th September 2026 September 14 Job 1:8-11 8Then the LORD said to Satan, "Have you considered my servant Job? There is no one on earth like him; he is blameless and upright, a man who fears God and shuns evil." 9"Does Job fear God for nothing?" Satan replied. 10"Have you not put a hedge around him and his household and everything he has? You have blessed the work of his hands, so that his flocks and herds are spread throughout the land. 11But stretch out your hand and strike everything he has, and he will surely curse you to your face." Job is the earliest of all the literature in the Bible. The book begins by describing Job as the greatest man of the East, and tells us that he was blameless. We know that all have sinned and fallen short of God's glory, so we should consider this to be a statement relative to his culture. However, God commended him as one of the most righteous men upon the earth. The scene changes to t...
