DAILY PRAYER (BY SPURGEON)

Lord, if you help us to pray, we will begin by adoring you. Our Father in heaven, hallowed be your name. Here, all prayer should begin with reverent homage to the Most High. You are our creator, preserver, benefactor; all good comes from you, you deep abyss of love. Every drop of the rain of comfort falls from heaven. Every dewdrop of consolation, are you not the Father of it? We ascribe all honor and glory to you, for every good gift and every perfect gift, is from above, and comes down from the Father of lights with whom there is no variation or shadow of turning.

Amen.

VERSE OF THE DAY (COMMENTARY BY SPURGEON)

“All things were created through him, and apart from him not one thing was created that has been created.” (John 1:3)

We cannot describe the Deity of Christ in clearer language than John uses. He was with God; he was God; he did the works of God, for he was the Creator. If any doubt his Deity, they must do so in distinct defiance of the language of Holy Scripture.

PRAY FOR THE NATIONS

This week, we’re praying for the Duano of Indonesia.

The Bible has not been translated into the Duano’s language. They do not have the words of life.

Pray that faithful and qualified Bible translators would go to the Duano.

RECOMMENDED RESOURCE

Teach kids the truth about creation

This week we are praising God as the creator of all things. Whenever we think about the doctrine of creation, I’m sure your mind quickly goes to the book of Genesis, where we read the stunning account of God creating all things by the word of his power. Genesis is an important book, and it’s an important book to read to our kids.

Our hearts are captivated by stories, and today there are a lot of stories about where the world comes from, what it all means, and how to tell right from wrong. Equip your children to stand firm by steeping them in the truth of God’s story. Genesis explains that God created the world for his glory, so he gets to declare right from wrong. Your kids needs Genesis.

Family devotionals from God Centered Family start with Genesis and cover all of Scripture. We’ll give you everything you need to teach your kids the Bible and lead your kids to be lifelong followers of Jesus.

LAST WORD FROM SPURGEON

“Nothing teaches us about the preciousness of the Creator as much as when we learn the emptiness of everything else.” — Charles Spurgeon
