  • MORNING & EVENING

    The path of the Christian is not always bright with sunshine; he has his seasons of darkness and of storm. True, it is written in God’s Word, “Her ways are ways of pleasantness, and all her paths are peace;” and it is a great truth, that religion is calculated to give a man happiness below…

  • WHAT YOU WILL GET

    My Utmost For His Highest Thy life will I give thee for a prey in all places whither thou goest. Jeremiah 45:5. This is the unshakable secret of the Lord to those who trust Him—‘I will give thee thy life.’ What more does a man want than his life? It is the essential thing. ‘Thy…

  • WERE YOU THERE

    Amazing Grace Spiritual It was the third hour when they crucified Him.

  • WHAT DO YOU WANT?

  • MORNING & EVENING

    It is strange how little use we make of the spiritual blessings which God gives us, but it is stranger still how little use we make of God himself. Though he is “our own God,” we apply ourselves but little to him, and ask but little of him. How seldom do we ask counsel at…

  • THE SUPREME CLIMB

    My Utmost For His Highest Take now thy son, … and offer him there for a burnt-offering upon one of the mountains which I will tell thee of. Genesis 22:2. Character determines how a man interprets God’s will (cf. Psalm 18:25–26 ). Abraham interpreted God’s command to mean that he had to kill his son,…

  • BECAUSE HE LIVES

    Amazing Grace Gloria Gaither, 1942–William J. Gaither, 1936– Because I live, you also will live. (John 14:19) Christ’s resurrection is our guarantee of at least two basic truths: First, He has the power to give His life to us and to bring us ultimately to glory to reign with Him forever.

    It seems then, that Christians may forget Christ! There could be no need for this loving exhortation, if there were not a fearful supposition that our memories might prove treacherous. Nor is this a bare supposition: it is, alas! too well confirmed in our experience, not as a possibility, but as a lamentable fact. It…
