DAILY PRAYER (BY SPURGEON)

Lord, we feel as if we must just stand before you in adoration. Glory be to the Triune God, the God of Abraham, of Isaac, and of Jacob, “he shall be called the God of the whole earth.” Let the Lord be worshiped everywhere. Creator, preserver, redeemer, the friend and helper of man; unto his name be glory forever and ever. You have revealed yourself to us in Trinity as well as in unity and we adore you as you reveal yourself.

Amen.

VERSE OF THE DAY (COMMENTARY BY SPURGEON)

“The grace of the Lord Jesus Christ, and the love of God, and the fellowship of the Holy Spirit be with you all.” (2 Corinthians 13:13)

The Lord Jesus is the second person of the blessed divine unity—Father, Son, and Holy Spirit, but this benediction begins with the Son of God. Why is that? In the order of doctrine and fact, all infinite blessings begin with the Father. He is the fountain-head of creation; he is the fountain, Christ the channel, and the Holy Spirit produces the grand results.

PRAY FOR THE NATIONS

This week, we’re praying for the Pashayi of Afghanistan.

The Pashayi of Afghanistan are an ethnic group that has existed since ancient times. Today, they are entirely Muslim and have likely never heard the truth of Jesus, met a Christian, or even seen a Bible. They will never hear the gospel unless someone brings it from the outside.

Pray that God would send missionaries to the Pashayi.

Understand How the Trinity Changes Everything

This week, we have prayed about and rejoiced in the doctrine of the Trinity. Most Christians have a basic understanding of this doctrine, but we shouldn’t be content to stay in the shallow-end of the pool — we should seek to dive deeper and deeper into the fullness of God.

A great book to take your next step in understanding the Trinity is The Deep Things of God by Fred Sanders. This is an incredibly accessible book by one of the world’s foremost experts on Trinitarian theology. The book will walk through how the Trinity relates to other doctrines. You’ll walk away impressed at how important the Trinity is and amazed at how glorious God is.

I know this book will encourage you, so I hope you’ll grab a copy today.
