DAILY PRAYER (BY SPURGEON)

We just come and lie at your feet, obedient to that call of yours, “Come unto me all of you who labor and I will give you rest.” Let us feel sweet rest, since we do come at your call. May some come that have never come until this day, and may others who have been coming these many years consciously come again, coming to you as unto a living stone, chosen by God and precious, to build our everlasting hopes upon.

Amen.

VERSE OF THE DAY (COMMENTARY BY SPURGEON)

“Come to me, all of you who are weary and burdened, and I will give you rest.” (Matthew 11:28)

All laboring and laden ones may come. He does not limit the call to the spiritually laboring, but every working and wearied one is called. It is well to give the largest sense to all that mercy speaks. Jesus calls me. Jesus promises “rest” as his gift, his immediate, personal, effectual rest he freely gives to all who come to him by faith.

PRAY FOR THE NATIONS

This week, we’re praying for the Bidio of Chad.

The Bidio believe in invisible spirits that control things in nature. Magic and sorcery are a common part of everyday life and cultic leaders have great authority over their villages.

Pray that the Bidio would know that the God who created all things — even the spirits — can protect them.

RECOMMENDED RESOURCE

Men in your church ARE using porn. Do you know how to help them?*

64% of Christian men regularly use pornography. And that means that men YOU know are struggling — stuck in sin, filled with guilt, and not knowing how to move forward.

Are you ready to help these men?

HarvestUSA is a really great, faithful ministry that focuses on equipping YOU to minister to people struggling with their own sexual sin.

Harvest has put together a really incredible Bible study resource that you could start using right away to help men in your church.

Discovery is a Bible study for men stuck in sexual sin. It is gospel-centered and will help you see and address the root of your sin.

These great resources are available for FREE and they even come with a Leader’s Guide, so that you can start a small group study in your own church or home right now.

I believe that God wants to use his Word THROUGH YOU to help men in your life. And I know that these studies will help you along the way.
