VERSE OF THE DAY (COMMENTARY BY SPURGEON)

“Whoever wants to be first among you must be your slave…” (Matthew 20:27)

The way to rise is to sink self; the lower we fall in our own esteem, the higher shall we rise in our Master’s estimation. To rise in Christ’s kingdom we must descend. He who would be chief, or first, among saints, must be their servant, bondsman, or slave. The lower we have stooped, the higher we have risen.

PRAY FOR THE NATIONS

This week, we’re praying for the Bajgi of India.

One day, all “the nations will fear the name of the LORD” (Psalm 102:15), but this is not the reality yet.

Pray that the Bajdi would hear the hope of Christ and believe in his name.

TOMORROW IN THE WEEKEND EDITION

Each Saturday, I send a bonus email to Pray with Spurgeon Plus subscribers. Here’s what to look forward to in tomorrow’s email:

• Prayer for the Church — Prepare for Sunday with this prayer for the worship service

• Q&A with Spurgeon — If I sin, am I still a Christian? Should I be worried that I lost my salvation?

• Spurgeon’s Letters — A letter of sympathy that Spurgeon sent to a friend whose mother had recently passed away.
