  • MORNING & EVENING

    Behold the superlative liberality of the Lord Jesus, for he hath given us his all. Although a tithe of his possessions would have made a universe of angels rich beyond all thought, yet was he not content until he had given us all that he had. It would have been surprising grace if he had…

  • DIRECTION OF DISCIPLINE

    My Utmost For His Highest And if thy right hand offend thee cut it off and cast it from thee: for it is profitable for thee that one of thy members should perish, and not that thy whole body should be cast into hell. Matthew 5:30. Jesus did not say that everyone must cut off…

  • CHRIST LIVETH IN ME

    Daniel W. Whittle, 1840–1901 I have been crucified with Christ and I no longer live, but Christ liveth in me. (Galatians 2:20) “Don’t you know that you yourselves are God’s temple and that God’s Spirit lives in you?” (1 Corinthians 3:16). One can almost hear the apostle Paul exhorting the carnal Christians at Corinth with…

  • MORNING & EVENING

    Let us not imagine that the soul sleeps in insensibility. “Today shalt thou be with me in paradise,” is the whisper of Christ to every dying saint. They “sleep in Jesus,” but their souls are before the throne of God, praising him day and night in his temple, singing hallelujahs to him who washed them…

  • APPREHENDED BY GOD

    My Utmost For His Highest If that I may apprehend that for which also I am apprehended. Phil. 3:12. Never choose to be a worker; but when once God has put His call on you, woe be to you if you turn to the right hand or to the left. We are not here to…

  • THE HAVEN OF REST

    Henry L. Gilmour, 1836–1920 We have this hope as an anchor for the soul, firm and secure. It enters the inner sanctuary behind the curtain, where Jesus, who went before us, has entered on our behalf. (Hebrews 6:19) What stabilizers are to a ship in stormy water, the conscious presence of Christ is to a…

  • MORNING & EVENING

    It is ever the Holy Spirit’s work to turn our eyes away from self to Jesus; but Satan’s work is just the opposite of this, for he is constantly trying to make us regard ourselves instead of Christ. He insinuates, “Your sins are too great for pardon; you have no faith; you do not repent…

  • THE OVERSHADOWING PERSONAL DELIVERANCE

    My Utmost For His Highest I am with thee to deliver thee, saith the Lord. Jeremiah 1:8. God promised Jeremiah that He would deliver him personally—“Thy life will I give unto thee for a prey.” That is all God promises His children. Wherever God sends us, He will guard our lives. Our personal property and…

  • 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…
