  • MORNING & EVENING

    The entire person of Jesus is but as one gem, and his life is all along but one impression of the seal. He is altogether complete; not only in his several parts, but as a gracious all-glorious whole. His character is not a mass of fair colours mixed confusedly, nor a heap of precious stones…

  • HAVE YOU COME TO “WHEN” YET?

    My Utmost For His Highest And the Lord turned the captivity of Job when he prayed for his friends. Job 42:10. The plaintive, self-centred, morbid kind of prayer, a dead-set that I want to be right, is never found in the New Testament. The fact that I am trying to be right with God is…

  • THE SOLID ROCK

    Edward Mote, 1797–1874 For no one can lay any foundation other than the one already laid, which is Jesus Christ. (1 Corinthians 3:11) Life with Christ is an endless hope; without Him a hopeless end.— Unknown The Bible likens our life to a house. Some homes are built to last while others crumble easily in…

  • MORNING & EVENING

    Every sifting comes by divine command and permission. Satan must ask leave before he can lay a finger upon Job. Nay, more, in some sense our siftings are directly the work of heaven, for the text says, “I will sift the house of Israel.” Satan, like a drudge, may hold the sieve, hoping to destroy…

  • THE SERVICE OF PASSIONATE DEVOTION

    My Utmost For His HIghest Lovest thou Me? Feed My sheep. John 21:16. Jesus did not say—Make converts to your way of thinking, but look after My sheep, see that they get nourished in the knowledge of Me. We count as service what we do in the way of Christian work; Jesus Christ calls service…

    Words and Music by Norman J. Clayton, 1903–1992 If we live, we live to the Lord; and if we die, we die to the Lord. So, whether we live or die, we belong to the Lord. (Romans 14:8) God is FOR us—that is good.God is WITH us—that is better.God is IN us—that is best!— Unknown…

  • MORNING & EVENING

    Rich were the blessings of this day if all of us were filled with the Holy Ghost. The consequences of this sacred filling of the soul it would be impossible to overestimate. Life, comfort, light, purity, power, peace; and many other precious blessings are inseparable from the Spirit’s benign presence. As sacred oil, he anoints…

  • DON’T THINK NOW, TAKE THE ROAD

    My Utmost For His Highest And Peter … walked on the water to go to Jesus. But when he saw the wind boisterous, he was afraid. Matthew 14:29–30 . The wind was actually boisterous, the waves were actually high, but Peter did not see them at first. He did not reckon with them, he simply…

  • SAVED, SAVED

    Words and Music by Jack P. Scholfield, 1882–1972 Everyone who calls on the name of the Lord will be saved. (Romans 10:13) Indulgence says, “Drink your way out.”Philosophy says, “Think your way out.”Science says, “Invent your way out.”Industry says, “Work your way out.”Communism says, “Strike your way out.”Militarism says, “Fight your way out.”Christ says, “I…

  • MORNING & EVENING

    Jesus, the Redeemer, is altogether ours and ours for ever. All the offices of Christ are held on our behalf. He is king for us, priest for us, and prophet for us. Whenever we read a new title of the Redeemer, let us appropriate him as ours under that name as much as under any…
