Pray with Spurgeon

Daily Newsletter from SpurgeonBooks

This week, our prayers and Scripture readings each day will focus on God’s Promises. Next week, we’ll highlight a different theme. Invite a friend to pray with you by sending them this link.

DAILY PRAYER (BY SPURGEON)

Bless the Lord! And when we think of all that you have promised to give, which our faith embraces as being really ours, since the covenant makes it sure, we know not how abundantly enough to utter the memory of your great goodness. We should make our praises equal to our expectations and our expectations equal to your promises. We can never rise so high. We give to you, however, the praise of our entire being; unto the Lord, the God of Abraham, the God of Isaac, and the God of Jacob, the Creator of the world, the redeemed of men, unto the Lord be glory forever and ever, and let all his people praise him. Let the redeemed of the Lord say so, whom he has redeemed from the hand of the enemy.

Amen.

VERSE OF THE DAY (COMMENTARY BY SPURGEON)

“For every one of God’s promises is ‘Yes’ in him [Jesus Christ]. Therefore, through him we also say ‘Amen’ to the glory of God.” (2 Corinthians 1:20)

Jesus is the fulfiller of the promises. His first coming brought us the major part of the blessings which the Lord has foreordained for his own, and his second coming is to bring us the rest. Our spiritual riches are linked with his ever-wonderful person. Because he lives, we live; because he reigns, we reign; because he is accepted, we are accepted. Soon, in his triumph, we shall triumph; in his glory, we shall be glorified. He is himself the Alpha and the Omega of the promises of God: in him we have found life as sinners, in him we shall find glory as saints. If he is not risen, our faith is vain; and if he does not come a second time, our hope is a delusion; but since he has risen from the dead, we are justified; since he will come in the glory of the Father, we also shall be glorified.

PRAY FOR THE NATIONS

This week, we’re praying for the Micha of China.

The Micha are a group of 33,000 people with no Christians among them. There is no church they can attend, no Bible in their language, and no Christian friend they could ask about Jesus. They will never hear about Jesus unless someone comes from the outside to tell them.

Pray that missionaries would go to the Micha of China.
