Dwell Deep, O Dedan!

Charles Spurgeon

WE do not quite know who these inhabitants of Dedan were, but in all probability they were some Arabian tribe or tribes. Perhaps they were descendants of Keturah. This Arabian tribe probably dwelt in the rock city of Petra, and were mingled with the Edomites.

Where Are You Going?

Charles Spurgeon • Aug 4, 1889

On several Sabbath mornings of late I have earnestly handled spiritual subjects which I trust may have been for the edification of the people of God; but it will not do to continue in that line. I am a fisher of men as well as a shepherd of the flock. I must a…

Perfection in Christ

Charles Spurgeon • Jul 31, 1898

PERFECTION in Jesus Christ! What effect ought it to have upon our hearts if it really is ours?

Mocking the King

Charles Spurgeon • Apr 1, 1909

[There are two other sermons by Mr. Spurgeon on verse 29— sermons #1168, The Crown of Thorns and #2824, Mocked of the Soldiers] I AM certain that I should fail if I were to attempt to preach a sermon that should be worthy of such a text as this. I shall make n…

God’s Innumerable Mercies

Charles Spurgeon • Jan 10, 1907

THE writer of this Psalm describes all the dealings of God with him under the heads “righteousness” and “salvation.” That description is perfectly accurate, for all that God does for His people is, first of all, in faithfulness to His promise. As He has spoken…

My Solace in My Affliction

Charles Spurgeon

EVEN in those psalms which are not associated with any particular chapter of history, we can often trace out the trail of the writer’s experience, and track his soul through its wanderings. His reflections then become vivid with intense reality. The meditation…

“Marvellous Lovingkindness”

Charles Spurgeon • Nov 25, 1900

THE Lord’s people, in the time of their trouble, know where to go for comfort and relief. Being taught of God, they do not hew out to themselves broken cisterns which can hold no water, but they turn to the ever flowing fountain, they go to the wellhead—even t…

A Lesson From the Great Panic

Charles Spurgeon • May 13, 1866

IT is a most popular error that the world stands still, and is fixed and immovable. This has been scouted as an astronomical theory, but as a matter of practical principle it still reigns in men’s minds.

Pride the Destroyer

Charles Spurgeon • Oct 9, 1898

HABAKKUK had to prophesy to the people that God would eventually deliver them out of the hand of the Chaldeans, and send them better times, but he warned them that although the vision would come, and as far as God was concerned, it would not really tarry, yet…

Encouragement to Trust and Pray

Charles Spurgeon • Jun 16, 1878

THE great sin of man is his alienation from God. He has said in his heart, “No God,” and in his life he labors to escape from the divine presence. The journey into the far country is not only made for the sake of the riotous living, but that he may get away fr…

The Trial of Your Faith

Charles Spurgeon • Dec 2, 1888

IT is a great thing, if any man can truthfully speak to you, my brother, about “your faith,” for all men have not faith, and wherever faith is found, it is the token of divine favor. True faith is, in every case, of the operation of the Spirit of God. Its natu…

The Flight to Zoar

Charles Spurgeon • Oct 1, 1899

THE destruction of Sodom was, undoubtedly, a literal fact. And the record of it in Genesis is as true a piece of history as any event that is recorded by Tacitus or Josephus. But it was also intended to be a great parabolic lesson to us—a lesson in the shape o…

Abraham’s Prompt Obedience to the Call of God

Charles Spurgeon • Jun 27, 1875

ONE is struck with the practical character of this verse. Abraham was called, and he obeyed. There is no hint of hesitation, parleying, or delay––when he was called to go out, he went out. Would to God that such conduct were usual, yea, universal, for with man…

The Great Privation—or the Great Salvation

Charles Spurgeon

FROM this verse we may learn that when God smites men on account of sin, it gives Him no pleasure. The voice which speaks is not that of the seraphic prophet, but it is the voice of the Lord God of the prophets Himself. The manner is not merely the majestic fo…

The Last Census

Charles Spurgeon • Apr 14, 1861

SEVERAL times, according to the record of Scripture, there was a census taken of the people of God. When Jacob went down into Egypt all his offspring were numbered, and they were three score and ten souls. How small, then, the visible church of Christ! It coul…

Folly of Unbelief

Charles Spurgeon • Aug 28, 1887

THE two disciples who walked to Emmaus and conversed together, and were sad, were true believers. We may not judge men by their occasional feelings. The possession of gladness is no clear evidence of grace, and the existence of depression is no sure sign of in…

Two “I Wills” in Isaiah XLI

Charles Spurgeon • Aug 21, 1892

YOU notice that in this verse, the Lord twice says, “I will,” and in that respect this verse is in harmony with the rest of the chapter. Will the children, when they are at home, find out how many times in this chapter God says, “I will,” or “Thou shalt,” whic…

A Good Soldier of Jesus Christ

Charles Spurgeon • Jun 26, 1870

MANY men, many minds. In reference to what a Christian is, there have been very many and diverse opinions. According to the notions of some, a Christian is an exquisite of remarkably delicate tastes. He cannot worship except it be in a place whose architecture…

Homage Offered to the Great King

Charles Spurgeon • Jul 9, 1908

[Another sermon by Mr. Spurgeon upon the same verse is #717, Pray for Jesus.] I BELIEVE we must refer the ultimate fulfillment of this prophecy to the times of the latter-day glory, when Jesus Christ shall again appear upon the earth. Then “He shall have domin…

A Serious Reprimand

Charles Spurgeon

I AM somewhat myself in the position of Elijah, when Naaman, the Syrian, came dashing up with his horses and with his chariot, and stood at the door of the house of the prophet. There are before me in this house, I fear, many who are spiritually diseased. Your…

The Root That Beareth Wormwood

Charles Spurgeon • Dec 2, 1866

THE people of Israel, after all the wonderful things which God had done for them, should have felt themselves bound forever to their father’s God. They had received the clearest possible proof that JEHOVAH alone was the living and true God. How could they deba…

Joseph and His Brethren

Charles Spurgeon • May 11, 1862

JOSEPH is a very eminent type of Christ. When he was hated of his brethren because he protested against their sins, and when they sold him for twenty pieces of silver, he was doubtlessly a portrait of the despised and rejected of men whom His disciple betrayed…

“And It Was So”

Charles Spurgeon • Oct 31, 1907

YOU will find those words six times upon the first page of revelation. God spake and said, “Let there be a firmament.” “And it was so.” He said, “Let the dry land appear.” “And it was so.” He bade the earth bring forth grass, “And it was so.” He ordained the s…

The Breaker and the Flock

Charles Spurgeon • Mar 20, 1887

YOU will remember, dear friends, from our reading last Sabbath morning [Sermon #1952, The Holy Spir- it—The need of the Age ], in the second chapter of the Book of Micah, that the prophet was delivering reproofs and rebukes against a sinful people, a people wh…
