  • MORNING & EVENING

    Thou hast good reason to “hate evil,” for only consider what harm it has already wrought thee. Oh, what a world of mischief sin has brought into thy heart! Sin blinded thee so that thou couldst not see the beauty of the Saviour; it made thee deaf so that thou couldst not hear the Redeemer’s…

  • WORK OUT WHAT GOD WORKS IN

    My Utmost For His Highest Work out your own salvation. Phil. 2:12–13 . Your will agrees with God, but in your flesh there is a disposition which renders you powerless to do what you know you ought to do. When the Lord is presented to the conscience, the first thing conscience does is to rouse…

  • MORNING & EVENING

    One cheering word, poor lost sinner, for thee! You think you must not come to God because you are vile. Now, there is not a saint living on earth but has been made to feel that he is vile. If Job, and Isaiah, and Paul were all obliged to say “I am vile,” oh, poor…

    Julia H. Johnston, 1849–1919 But where sin increased, grace increased all the more, so that, just as sin reigned in death, so also grace might reign through righteousness to bring eternal life through Jesus Christ our Lord. (Romans 5:20, 21) God’s grace is not merely a sufficient grace; it is an abounding grace—“that you will…

  • MORNING & EVENING

    Noah was shut in away from all the world by the hand of divine love. The door of electing purpose interposes between us and the world which lieth in the wicked one. We are not of the world even as our Lord Jesus was not of the world. Into the sin, the gaiety, the pursuits…

  • THE NEVER-FAILING GOD

    My Utmost For His Highest For He hath said, I will never leave thee, nor forsake thee. Hebrews 13:5. What line does my thought take? Does it turn to what God says or to what I fear? Am I learning to say not what God says, but to say something after I have heard what…

    Amazing Grace Philip Doddridge, 1702–1751 (verses 1, 3)Augustus Toplady, 1740–1778 (verses 2, 4, 5) For it is by grace you have been saved, through faith—and this is not from yourselves, it is the gift of God—not by works, so that no one can boast.
