Thanks for praying with us this week. We’ll be back on Monday.

DAILY PRAYER (BY SPURGEON)

We cry to you for holiness. You know we do not expect to be saved by our holiness but we do look upon it as salvation, to be saved from sin, to be delivered from corruption. To be emancipated from the bondage of evil is the great longing of our spirit, and we look forward to heaven with this as one of its highest joys, that we shall be without fault before the throne of God, and that nothing that defiles shall ever enter there.

Lamb of God, by whom we have been redeemed from sin and washed from uncleanness, will you graciously daily wash our feet, that we may be clean everywhere, and may enter in through the gates into the city, and be among those of whom it is written—“They shall walk with me in white for they are worthy.”

Amen.

VERSE OF THE DAY (COMMENTARY BY SPURGEON)

“But grow in the grace and knowledge of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ. To him be the glory both now and to the day of eternity.” (2 Peter 3:18)

There cannot be any grace except as we know Christ. And there can be no growth in grace except as we grow in our knowledge of Christ. We may always test whether we are growing by asking this: Do I know more of Christ today than I did yesterday? Do I live nearer to Christ today than I did a little while ago? For increase in the knowledge of Christ is the evidence as well as the cause of true growth in grace.

PRAY FOR THE NATIONS

This week, we’re praying for the Lao Lom of Thailand.

The Bible promises that the right of King Jesus “will extend from sea to sea… to the ends of the earth” (Zechariah 9:10). But the Lao Lom have never heard of King Jesus and have never submitted to him as King.

Pray that the Kingdom of God would spread to the Lao Lom as they put their hope in Christ.
