Charles Spurgeon was a popular Baptist minister in London in mid-Victorian times; his ministry was highly influential and had a significant effect on many families in London and further afield. It was difficult to find a hall large enough to accommodate the crowd who wished to hear him. At times the Royal Surrey Gardens’ Music Hall was hired to accomodate the Sunday congregation; this could seat 10,000 but large numbers were unable to gain admittance. His world-wide heritage is very much wit ...

HE WHO SPOKE and wrote this message will be greatly disappointed if it does not lead many to the Lord Jesus. It is sent forth in childlike dependence upon the power of God the Holy Ghost, to use it in the conversion of millions, if so He pleases. No doubt many poor men and women will take up this little volume, and the Lord will visit them with grace. To answer this end, the very plainest language has been chosen, and many homely expressions have been used. But if those of wealth and rank sh ...

“I did know thee in the wilderness, in the land of great drought.” — Hosea 13:5 Yes, Lord, Thou didst indeed know me in my fallen state, and Thou didst even then choose me for Thyself. When I was loathsome and self-abhorred, Thou didst receive me as Thy child, and Thou didst satisfy my craving wants. Blessed for ever be Thy name for this free, rich…

31 de Outubro. Renova dentro de mim um espírito inabalável. (Salmos 51.10) Um crente que caiu em pecado, se há resquício de vida nele, gemerá por restauração. Esta restauração exige a mesma atividade da graça manifestada na conversão. Naquela ocasião, precisávamos de arrependimento; na restauração, o arrependimento certamente é necessário. Na conve…

~ Around the Wicket Gate ~Almost Saved, But Altogether Lost Here in Chapter 4, Spurgeon demystifies the concept of faith, explaining that people mistakenly view it as something difficult when in fact it’s simple. Through relatable stories, he illustrates that faith is like accepting a gift or drinking from a fountain—it requires no effort, just […]…

“Renew a right spirit within me.” — Psalm 51:10 A backslider, if there be a spark of life left in him will groan after restoration. In this renewal the same exercise of grace is required as at our conversion. We needed repentance then; we certainly need it now. We wanted faith that we might come to Christ at first; only the like grace can bring us …

“Thou that dwellest in the gardens, the companions hearken to Thy voice: cause me to hear it.” — Song of Solomon 8:13 My sweet Lord Jesus remembers well the garden of Gethsemane, and although He has left that garden, He now dwells in the garden of His church: there He unbosoms Himself to those who keep His blessed company. That voice of love with w…

“I will praise Thee, O Lord.” — Psalm 9:1 Praise should always follow answered prayer; as the mist of earth’s gratitude rises when the sun of heaven’s love warms the ground. Hath the Lord been gracious to thee, and inclined His ear to the voice of thy supplication? Then praise Him as long as thou livest. Let the ripe fruit drop upon the fertile soi…

30 de Outubro Louvar-te-ei, SENHOR. (Salmos 9.1) O louvor deve sempre acompanhar a oração respondida, assim como a névoa de gratidão terrena se levanta quando os raios de amor do sol celestial esquentam o solo. O Senhor tem sido gracioso para você, inclinando os ouvidos à voz do seu clamor? Então, louve-O enquanto você viver. Não deixe de louvar Aq…

“But their eyes were holden that they should not know Him.” — Luke 24:16 The disciples ought to have known Jesus, they had heard His voice so often, and gazed upon that marred face so frequently, that it is wonderful they did not discover Him. Yet is it not so with you also? You have not seen Jesus lately. You have been to His table, and you have n…

“After this manner therefore pray ye: Our Father which art in heaven, etc.” — Matthew 6:9 This prayer begins where all true prayer must commence, with the spirit of adoption, “Our Father.” There is no acceptable prayer until we can say, “I will arise, and go unto my Father.” This child-like spirit soon perceives the grandeur of the Father “in heave…

29 de Outubro. Vós orareis assim: Pai nosso, que estás nos céus. (Mateus 6.9) Esta oração começa onde toda oração verdadeira deve começar -com o espírito de adoção: "Pai nosso". Não haverá qualquer oração aceitável, enquanto não dissermos: "Levantarme-ei, e irei ter com o meu Pai" (Lucas 15.18). Este espírito de filho logo percebe a grandeza do Pai…

“His head is as the most fine gold, His locks are bushy, and black as a raven.” — Song of Solomon 5:11 Comparisons all fail to set forth the Lord Jesus, but the spouse uses the best within her reach. By the head of Jesus we may understand His deity, “for the head of Christ is God” and then the ingot of purest gold is the best conceivable metaphor, …

“I have chosen you out of the world.” — John 15:19 Here is distinguishing grace and discriminating regard; for some are made the special objects of divine affection. Do not be afraid to dwell upon this high doctrine of election. When your mind is most heavy and depressed, you will find it to be a bottle of richest cordial. Those who doubt the doctr…

Versículo do dia: Não sois do mundo, pelo contrário, dele vos escolhi. (João 15.19) Nestas palavras, encontramos graça distinguidora e consideração discriminadora, pois algumas pessoas são feitas objetos especiais das afeições de Deus. Não tenha medo de se firmar nesta sublime doutrina da eleição. Quando sua mente estiver sobrecarregada e oprimida,…

“We are all as an unclean thing.” — Isaiah 64:6 The believer is a new creature, he belongs to a holy generation and a peculiar people — the Spirit of God is in him, and in all respects he is far removed from the natural man; but for all that the Christian is a sinner still. He is so from the imperfection of his nature, and will continue so to the e…

“It is a faithful saying.” — 2 Timothy 2:11 Paul has four of these “faithful sayings.” The first occurs in 1 Timothy 1:15, “This is a faithful saying, and worthy of all acceptation, that Christ Jesus came into the world to save sinners.” The next is in 1 Timothy 4:6, “Godliness is profitable unto all things, having the promise of the life that now …

27 de Outubro. Fiel é esta palavra. (2 Timóteo 2.11) Paulo fez quatro destas afirmações -"Fiel é esta palavra". A primeira ocorre em 1 Timóteo 1.15: "Fiel é a palavra e digna de toda aceitação: que Cristo Jesus veio ao mundo para salvar os pecadores”. A segunda ocorre em 1Timóteo 4.8, 9: "A piedade para tudo é proveitosa, porque tem a promessa da v…

“All the rivers run into the sea; yet the sea is not full; unto the place from whence the rivers come, thither they return again.” — Ecclesiastes 1:7 Everything sublunary is on the move, time knows nothing of rest. The solid earth is a rolling ball, and the great sun himself a star obediently fulfilling its course around some greater luminary. Tide…

“Ye looked for much, and, lo, it came to little; and when ye brought it home, I did blow upon it. Why? saith the Lord of hosts. Because of mine house that is waste, and ye run every man unto his own house.” — Haggai 1:9 Churlish souls stint their contributions to the ministry and missionary operations, and call such saving good economy; little do t…

26 de outubro. Esperastes o muito, e eis que veio a ser pouco, e esse pouco, quando o trouxestes para casa, eu com um assopro o dissipei. Por quê? -diz o SENHOR dos Exércitos; por causa da minha casa, que permanece em ruínas, ao passo que cada um de vós corre por causa de sua própria casa. (Ageu 1.9) Muitos crentes limitam suas contribuições à igre…

“She gleaned in the field after the reapers: and her hap was to light on a part of the field belonging unto Boaz, who was of the kindred of Elimelech.” — Ruth 2:3 Her hap was. Yes, it seemed nothing but an accident, but how divinely was it overruled! Ruth had gone forth with her mother’s blessing, under the care of her mother’s God, to humble but h…

“For the truths sake, which dwelleth in us, and shall be with us for ever.” — 2 John 2 Once let the truth of God obtain an entrance into the human heart and subdue the whole man unto itself, no power human or infernal can dislodge it. We entertain it not as a guest but as the master of the house — this is a Christian necessity, he is no Christian w…

25 de outubro. Por causa da verdade que permanece em nós e conosco estará para sempre. (2 João 2) Se a verdade de Deus recebe entrada no coração do homem e o subjuga a si mesma, nenhum poder, humano ou infernal, será capaz de expulsá-la. Nós a recebemos não como um simples convidado, e sim como o dono da casa -esta é uma das necessidades do crente.…

“He began to wash the disciples’ feet.” — John 13:5 The Lord Jesus loves His people so much, that every day He is still doing for them much that is analogous to washing their soiled feet. Their poorest actions He accepts; their deepest sorrow He feels; their slenderest wish He hears, and their every transgression He forgives. He is still their serv…

“The trees of the Lord are full of sap.” — Psalm 104:16 Without sap the tree cannot flourish or even exist. Vitality is essential to a Christian. There must be life — a vital principle infused into us by God the Holy Ghost, or we cannot be trees of the Lord. The mere name of being a Christian is but a dead thing, we must be filled with the spirit o…

24 de outubro. Avigoram-se as árvores do SENHOR. (Salmos 104.16) Sem a seiva, uma árvore não pode florescer, nem mesmo existir. Vitalidade é essencial para o crente. Tem de existir vida - um princípio vital infundido em nós por Deus, o Espírito Santo. A simples confissão de ser crente é apenas uma coisa mortal. Ternos de ser cheios com o Espírito d…

“Why sleep ye? rise and pray, lest ye enter into temptation.” — Luke 22:46 When is the Christian most liable to sleep? Is it not when his temporal circumstances are prosperous? Have you not found it so? When you had daily troubles to take to the throne of grace, were you not more wakeful than you are now? Easy roads make sleepy travellers. Another …

“Will ye also go away?” — John 6:67 Many have forsaken Christ, and have walked no more with Him; but what reason have YOU to make a change? Has there been any reason for it in the past? Has not Jesus proved Himself all-sufficient? He appeals to you this morning — “Have I been a wilderness unto you?” When your soul has simply trusted Jesus, have you…

23 de Outubro. Quereis também vós... retirar-vos? (João 6.67) Muitos têm abandonado a Cristo, não mais andam com Ele. Mas, que razão têm eles para esta mudança? Há algum motivo no passado? Jesus não se tem comprovado como todo-suficiente? Ele roga a você nesta manhã: "Tenho eu sido... um deserto?" (Jeremias 2.31.) Quando a sua alma confiou de manei…

“He shall take of Mine, and shall show it unto you.” — John 16:15 There are times when all the promises and a doctrines of the Bible are of no avail, unless a gracious hand shall apply them to us. We are thirsty, but too faint to crawl to the water- brook. When a soldier is wounded in battle it is of little use for him to know that there are those …

“I will love them freely.” — Hosea 14:4 This sentence is a body of divinity in miniature. He who understands its meaning is a theologian, and he who can dive into its fulness is a true master in Israel. It is a condensation of the glorious message of salvation which was delivered to us in Christ Jesus our Redeemer. The sense hinges upon the word “f…

22 de Outubro. Eu de mim mesmo os amarei. (Oséias 14.4) Esta sentença é um corpo de divindade em miniatura. Aquele que entende o significado desta afirmação é um teólogo e aquele que pode mergulhar na plenitude desta sentença é um verdadeiro mestre em Israel. Esta sentença é uma síntese da gloriosa mensagem de salvação que nos foi dada em Cristo Je…
