  • MORNING & EVENING

    Jesus was the Lord High Admiral of the sea that night, and his presence preserved the whole convoy. It is well to sail with Jesus, even though it be in a little ship. When we sail in Christ’s company, we may not make sure of fair weather, for great storms may toss the vessel which…

  • AFTER SURRENDER – WHAT?

    My Utmost For His Highest I have finished the work which Thou gavest Me to do. John 17:4. Surrender is not the surrender of the external life, but of the Will; when that is done, all is done. There are very few crises in life; the great crisis is the surrender of the will. God…

  • ALL HAIL THE POWER

    Edward Perronet, 1726–1792Altered by John Rippon, 1751–1836 You are worthy, our Lord and God, to receive glory and honor and power, for You created all things, and by Your will they were created and have their being.

  • MORNING & EVENING

    Observe the condescension of this fact. This Man, who towers above all other men, holy, harmless, undefiled, and separate from sinners—this Man receiveth sinners. This Man, who is no other than the eternal God, before whom angels veil their faces—this Man receiveth sinners. It needs an angel’s tongue to describe such a mighty stoop of…

  • BY SPIRITUAL CONFUSION

    My Utmost For His Highest Ye know not what ye ask. Matthew 20:22. There are times in spiritual life when there is confusion, and it is no way out to say that there ought not to be confusion. It is not a question of right and wrong, but a question of God taking you by…

  • O WORSHIP THE KING

    Robert Grant, 1779–1838 Sing praises to God, sing praises; sing praises to our King, sing praises. For God is the King of all the earth; sing to Him a psalm of praise.

  • MORNING & EVENING

    Your Lord is very jealous of your love, O believer. Did he choose you? He cannot bear that you should choose another. Did he buy you with his own blood? He cannot endure that you should think that you are your own, or that you belong to this world. He loved you with such a…

  • MISSIONARY MUNITIONS

    My Utmost For His Highest Ministering as Opportunity Surrounds us. If I then, your Lord and Master, have washed your feet, ye also ought to wash one another’s feet. John 13:14. Ministering as opportunity surrounds us does not mean selecting our surroundings, it means being very selectly God’s in any haphazard surroundings which He engineers…

  • O FOR A THOUSAND TONGUES TO SING

    Charles Wesley, 1707–1788 Let everything that has breath praise the Lord. Praise the Lord. (Psalm 150:6) Soon after their graduation from Oxford University, John and Charles Wesley decided to sail to America, the new world, to try to minister to the rough colonists under General Oglethorpe in Georgia and to evangelize the Indians. The Wesleys…

  • MORNING & EVENING

    The Christian, while in the world, is not to be of the world. He should be distinguished from it in the great object of his life. To him, “to live,” should be “Christ.” Whether he eats, or drinks, or whatever he does, he should do all to God’s glory. You may lay up treasure; but…
