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 ...

“Yet a little sleep, a little slumber, a little folding of the hands to sleep: so shall thy poverty come as one that travelleth; and thy want as an armed man.” — Proverbs 24:33, 34 The worst of sluggards only ask for a little slumber; they would be indignant if they were accused of thorough idleness. A little folding of the hands to sleep is all th…

O SENHOR ali nos será grandioso, fará as vezes de rios e correntes largas. (Isaías 33.21) Rios e correntes largas produzem fertilidade e abundância na terra. As terras próximas dos grandes rios são notáveis pela variedade de plantas e suas colheitas abundantes. Deus é tudo isso para sua igreja. Tendo a Deus, a igreja possui abundância. Porventura, …

~ Around the Wicket Gate ~Almost Saved, But Altogether Lost Here in Chapter 5, Spurgeon confronts the fear of believing in Christ, exposing it as pride disguised as humility. He argues that doubting God’s promises dishonors His faithfulness and implores readers to abandon self-reliance. Using vivid illustrations, Spurgeon shows that faith is as sim…

“The glorious Lord will be unto us a place of broad rivers and streams.” — Isaiah 33:21 Broad rivers and streams produce fertility, and abundance in the land. Places near broad rivers are remarkable for the variety of their plants and their plentiful harvests. God is all this to His Church. Having God she has abundance. What can she ask for that He…

“Get thee up into the high mountain.” — Isaiah 40:9 Each believer should be thirsting for God, for the living God, and longing to climb the hill of the Lord, and see Him face to face. We ought not to rest content in the mists of the valley when the summit of Tabor awaits us. My soul thirsteth to drink deep of the cup which is reserved for those who…

“Fellowship with Him.” — 1 John 1:6 When we were united by faith to Christ, we were brought into such complete fellowship with Him, that we were made one with Him, and His interests and ours became mutual and identical. We have fellowship with Christ in His love. What He loves we love. He loves the saints — so do we. He loves sinners — so do we. He…

23 de novembro. Comunhão com ele. (1João 1.6) Quando, pela fé, nos unimos a Cristo, fomos colocados em uma comunhão tão completa, que nos tornamos um com Ele. Os interesses dele e os nossos se tornam mútuos e idênticos. Temos comunhão com Cristo em seu amor. Amamos o que Ele ama. Cristo ama os santos, nós também os amamos. Jesus ama os pecadores, n…

“The power of His resurrection.” — Philippians 3:10 The doctrine of a risen Saviour is exceedingly precious. The resurrection is the corner-stone of the entire building of Christianity. It is the key-stone of the arch of our salvation. It would take a volume to set forth all the streams of living water which flow from this one sacred source, the re…

“Israel served for a wife, and for a wife he kept sheep.” — Hosea 12:12 Jacob, while expostulating with Laban, thus describes his own toil, “This twenty years have I been with thee. That which was torn of beasts I brought not unto thee: I bare the loss of it; of my hand didst thou require it, whether stolen by day, or stolen by night. Thus I was; i…

22 de Novembro. Israel serviu por uma mulher e por ela guardou o gado. (Oséias 12.12) Jacó, enquanto contendia com Labão, descreveu o seu trabalho árduo: "Vinte anos eu estive contigo, as tuas ovelhas e as tuas cabras nunca perderam as crias, e não comi os carneiros de teu rebanho. Nem te apresentei o que era despedaçado pelas feras; sofri o dano; …

“Lazarus was one of them that sat at the table with Him.” — John 12:2 He is to be envied. It was well to be Martha and serve, but better to beLazarus and commune. There are times for each purpose, and each iscomely in its season, but none of the trees of the garden yield such clustersas the vine of fellowship. To sit with Jesus, to hear His words, …

“Grieve not the Holy Spirit.” — Ephesians 4:30 All that the believer has must come from Christ, but it comes solely through the channel of the Spirit of grace. Moreover, as all blessings thus flow to you through the Holy Spirit, so also no good thing can come out of you in holy thought, devout worship, or gracious act, apart from the sanctifying op…

21 de novembro. E não entristeçais o Espírito de Deus. (Efésios 4.30) Tudo o que o crente tem procede de Cristo, mas apenas por meio do Espírito da Graça. Portanto, nenhuma coisa boa, pensamento santo, adoração devota, ou ações graciosas podem fluir de você sem a obra santificadora deste mesmo Espírito. Até a boa semente plantada em seu coração per…

“The conies are but a feeble folk, yet make they their houses in the rocks.” — Proverbs 30:26 Conscious of their own natural defenselessness, the conies resort to burrows in the rocks, and are secure from their enemies. My heart, be willing to gather a lesson from these feeble folk. Thou art as weak and as exposed to peril as the timid cony, be as …

“0 Lord, Thou hast pleaded the causes of my soul.” — Lamentations 3:58 Observe how positively the prophet speaks. He doth not say, “I hope, I trust, I sometimes think, that God hath pleaded the causes of my soul”; but he speaks of it as a matter of fact not to be disputed. “Thou hast pleaded the causes of my soul.” Let us, by the aid of the graciou…

20 de novembro. Pleiteaste, Senhor, a causa da minha alma. (Lamentações 3.58) Observe como o profeta utiliza uma linguagem positiva! Ele não disse: "Espero que o Senhor tenha pleiteado a minha causa". O profeta apresentou a sua declaração como um fato indiscutível. "Pleiteaste, Senhor, a causa da minha alma". Por meio da ajuda do gracioso Consolado…

“O that I knew where I might find Him!” — Job 23:3 In Job’s uttermost extremity he cried after the Lord. The longing desire of an afflicted child of God is once more to see his Father’s face. His first prayer is not “O that I might be healed of the disease which now festers in every part of my body!” nor even “O that I might see my children restore…

“Avoid foolish questions.” — Titus 3:9 Our days are few, and are far better spent in doing good, than in disputing over matters which are, at best, of minor importance. The old schoolmen did a world of mischief by their incessant discussion of subjects of no practical importance; and our Churches suffer much from petty wars over abstruse points and…

19 de novembro. Evita discussões insensatas. (Tito 3.9) Nossos dias são poucos, e os gastamos de modo melhor fazendo o bem e não contendendo sobre assuntos de menor importância. No passado, os homens fizeram um mundo de prejuízo por causa de contendas insignificantes e incessantes a respeito de questões sem importância prática. Nossas igrejas sofre…

“Thou art from everlasting.” — Psalm 93:2 Christ is EVERLASTING. Of Him we may sing with David, “Thy throne, O God, is for ever and ever.” Rejoice, believer, in Jesus Christ, the same yesterday, to-day, and for ever. Jesus always was. The Babe born in Bethlehem was united to the Word, which was in the beginning, by whom all things were made. The ti…

“A spring shut up, a fountain sealed.” — Song of Solomon 4:12 In this metaphor, which has reference to the inner life of a believer, we have very plainly the idea of secrecy. It is a spring shut up: just as there were springs in the East, over which an edifice was built, so that none could reach them save those who knew the secret entrance; so is t…

18 de novembro. Jardim fechado...fonte selada. (Cântico dos Cânticos 4.12) Nesta metáfora, que tem referência à vida interior do crente, a ideia de segredo é bastante clara. É uma fonte selada. No Oriente Médio, havia fontes sobre as quais se construíam um edifício, de modo que ninguém teria acesso àquelas fontes, exceto os que conheciam a entrada …

“He that cleaveth wood shall be endangered thereby.” — Ecclesiastes 10:9 Oppressors may get their will of poor and needy men as easily as they cansplit logs of wood, but they had better mind, for it is a dangerous business,and a splinter from a tree has often killed the woodman. Jesus ispersecuted in every injured saint, and He is mighty to avenge …

“To whom be glory for ever. Amen” — Romans 11:36 “To whom be glory for ever.” This should be the single desire of the Christian. All other wishes must be subservient and tributary to this one. The Christian may wish for prosperity in his business, but only so far as it may help him to promote this — “To Him be glory for ever.” He may desire to atta…

17 de novembro. A ele, pois, a glória eternamente. Amém! (Romanos 11.36) A ele, pois, a glória eternamente." Este deveria ser o único desejo do crente. Todos os outros desejos têm de ser subservientes a este. O crente pode desejar prosperidade em seus negócios, mas somente ao ponto em que tal prosperidade o ajude a promover a glória de Deus -"A ele…

“Thine eyes shall see the King in His beauty.” — Isaiah 33:17 The more you know about Christ the less will you be satisfied with superficial views of Him; and the more deeply you study His transactions in the eternal covenant, His engagements on your behalf as the eternal Surety, and the fulness of His grace which shines in all His offices, the mor…

“The Lord is my portion, saith my soul.” — Lamentations 3:24 It is not “The Lord is partly my portion,” nor “The Lord is in my portion”; but He Himself makes up the sum total of my soul’s inheritance. Within the circumference of that circle lies all that we possess or desire. The Lord is my portion. Not His grace merely, nor His love, nor His coven…

16 de Novembro. A minha porção é o SENHOR, diz a minha alma. (Lamentações 3.24) O profeta não disse: "O Senhor é uma par te de minha porção"; ou: "O Senhor está em minha porção". Mas o Senhor mesmo é toda a herança de minha alma. Dentro deste círculo, encontra-se tudo o que possuímos ou desejamos. O Senhor é a minha porção, não a sua graça merament…

“Strengthen, O God, that which thou hast wrought for us.” — Psalm 68:28 It is our wisdom, as well as our necessity, to beseech God continually to strengthen that which He has wrought in us. It is because of their neglect in this, that many Christians may blame themselves for those trials and afflictions of spirit which arise from unbelief. It is tr…

“The Lord’s portion is His people.” — Deuteronomy 32:9 How are they His? By His own sovereign choice. He chose them, and setHis love upon them. This He did altogether apart from any goodness inthem at the time, or any goodness which He foresaw in them. He hadmercy on whom He would have mercy, and ordained a chosen companyunto eternal life; thus, th…

15 de Novembro. A porção do SENHOR é o seu povo. (Deuteronômio 32.9) Como é que eles são a porção do Senhor? Por meio da soberana escolha dele. O Senhor os escolheu e colocou seu amor sobre eles. O Senhor fez isso completamente, à parte de qualquer bondade que previu neles. O Senhor teve misericórdia de quem Ele mesmo quis ter misericórdia e ordeno…
