  • GUIDE ME, O THOU GREAT JEHOVAH

    Amazing Grace William Williams, 1717–1791 Since You are my rock and my fortress, for the sake of Your name lead and guide me. (Psalm 31:3) The need for daily guidance is one of the believer’s greatest concerns. How easily our lives can go astray without the assurance of divine leadership. Today’s featured text is one…

  • Morning & Evening

    “Grow in grace”—not in one grace only, but in all grace. Grow in that root-grace, faith. Believe the promises more firmly than you have done. Let faith increase in fulness, constancy, simplicity. Grow also in love. Ask that your love may become extended, more intense, more practical, influencing every thought, word, and deed. Grow likewise…

  • CLOUDS AND DARKNESS

    My Utmost For His Highest Clouds and darkness are round about Him. Psalm 97:2. A man who has not been born of the Spirit of God will tell you that the teachings of Jesus are simple. But when you are baptized with the Holy Ghost, you find “clouds and darkness are round about Him.” When…

  • O GOD, OUR HELP IN AGES PAST

    Amazing Grace Isaac Watts, 1674–1748 Lord, You have been our dwelling place throughout all generations. Before the mountains were born or You brought forth the earth and the world, from everlasting to everlasting You are God. (Psalm 90:1, 2) It has been wisely said that no thinking person ever regarded the beginning of a new…

  • Morning & Evening

    Jesus Christ is himself the sum and substance of the covenant, and as one of its gifts. He is the property of every believer. Believer, canst thou estimate what thou hast gotten in Christ? “In him dwelleth all the fulness of the Godhead bodily.” Consider that word “God” and its infinity, and then meditate upon…

  • WILL YOU GO WITHOUT KNOWING?

    My Utmost For His Highest He went out, not knowing whither he went. Hebrews 11:8. Have you been ‘out’ in this way? If so, there is no logical statement possible when anyone asks you what you are doing. One of the difficulties in Christian work is this question—‘What do you expect to do?’ You do…

  • O JESUS I HAVE PROMISED

    Amazing Grace John E. Bode, 1816–1874 God is not unjust; He will not forget your work and the love you have shown Him as you have helped His people and continue to help them … show this same diligence to the very end, in order to make your hope sure. (Hebrews 6:10, 11) I asked…

  • Morning & Evening

    It is interesting to remark how large a portion of Sacred Writ is occupied with the subject of prayer, either in furnishing examples, enforcing precepts, or pronouncing promises. We scarcely open the Bible before we read, “Then began men to call upon the name of the Lord;” and just as we are about to close…

  • LET US KEEP TO THE POINT

    My Utmost For His Highest My eager desire and hope being that I may never feel ashamed, but that now as ever I may do honour to Christ in my own person by fearless courage. Phil. 1:20. (Moffatt.) My Utmost for His Highest. “My eager desire and hope being that I may never feel ashamed.”…

  • ANOTHER YEAR IS DAWNING

    Amazing Grace Frances Ridley Havergal, 1836–1879 Teach us to number our days aright, that we may gain a heart of wisdom. (Psalm 90:12) It is always challenging to approach a new year and to realize anew that our days upon this earth are so rapidly passing. How important it is that we pause with the…
