  • MY SINS ARE BLOTTED OUT, I KNOW!

    Words and Music by Merrill Dunlop, 1905–2002 I, even I, am He who blots out your transgressions, for My own sake, and remembers your sins no more. (Isaiah 43:25) Forgiveness—when God buries our sins and does not mark the grave.— Louis Paul Lehman Many Christians have suffered great emotional, mental, and even physical disorders throughout…

  • MORNING & EVENING

    This is a crafty word from the lip of the arch-tyrant Pharaoh. If the poor bondaged Israelites must needs go out of Egypt, then he bargains with them that it shall not be very far away; not too far for them to escape the terror of his arms, and the observation of his spies. After…

  • ALWAYS NOW

    My Utmost For His Highest We … beseech you that ye receive not the grace of God in vain. 2 Cor. 6:1. The grace you had yesterday will not do for to-day. Grace is the overflowing favour of God; you can always reckon it is there to draw upon. “In much patience, in afflictions, in…

  • NO ONE EVER CARED FOR ME LIKE JESUS

    Words and Music by Charles F. Weigle, 1871–1966 … Where is God my Maker, who gives songs in the night? (Job 35:10) It is not difficult to sing when all is going well. But often God gives a special song to one of his hurting children during the night times of their life. Believers find…

  • MORNING & EVENING

    What must be the apostate professor’s doom when his naked soul appears before God? How will he bear that voice, “Depart, ye cursed; thou hast rejected me, and I reject thee; thou hast played the harlot, and departed from me: I also have banished thee for ever from my presence, and will not have mercy…

  • RECEIVING ONESELF IN THE FIRES OF SORROW

    What shall I say? Father, save me from this hour? But for this cause came I unto this hour. Father, glorify Thy name. John 12:27–29 (R.V.). My attitude as a saint to sorrow and difficulty is not to ask that they may be prevented, but to ask that I may preserve the self God created…

  • MORNING & EVENING

    Our knowledge of Christ is somewhat like climbing one of our Welsh mountains. When you are at the base you see but little: the mountain itself appears to be but one-half as high as it really is. Confined in a little valley, you discover scarcely anything but the rippling brooks as they descend into the…

  • RECONCILING ONESELF TO THE FACT OF SIN

    My Utmost For His Highest This is your hour, and the power of darkness. Luke 22:53. It is not being reconciled to the fact of sin that produces all the disasters in life. You may talk about the nobility of human nature, but there is something in human nature which will laugh in the face…

  • SATISFIED

    Clara Tear Williams, 1858–1937 For He satisfies the thirsty and fills the hungry with good things. (Psalm 107:9) The lie of the secularist is the notion that contentment in life is dependent upon material possessions. The going expression is “if I only had just a little more.” One of the important lessons that we should…

  • MORNING & EVENING

    It is fondly imagined by some that it must have involved very special privileges to have been the mother of our Lord, because they supposed that she had the benefit of looking into his very heart in a way in which we cannot hope to do. There may be an appearance of plausibility in the…
