HOLY BIBLE, BOOK DIVINE
John Burton, Sr., 1773–1822 Oh, how I love Your law! I meditate on it all day long. (Psalm 119:97) Nobody ever outgrows Scripture; the Book widens and deepens with our years.— Charles H. Spurgeon The Bible is truly an amazing book. It has rightfully been called “The Book of Books.” The first book ever printed…

THE “GO” OF UNCONDITIONAL IDENTIFICATION
My Utmost For His Highest One thing thou lackest.… come, take up the cross, and follow Me. Mark 10:21. The rich young ruler had the master passion to be perfect. When he saw Jesus Christ, he wanted to be like Him. Our Lord never puts personal holiness to the fore when He calls a disciple;…

O WORD OF GOD INCARNATE
William W. How, 1823–1897 All Scripture is God-breathed and is useful for teaching, rebuking, correcting and training in righteousness, so that the man of God may be thoroughly equipped for every good work.

MORNING & EVENING
Perhaps no figure of speech represents God in a more gracious light than when he is spoken of as stooping from his throne, and coming down from heaven to attend to the wants and to behold the woes of mankind. We love him, who, when Sodom and Gomorrah were full of iniquity, would not destroy…

THE “GO” OF RENUNCIATION
My Utmost For His Highest Lord, I will follow Thee whithersoever Thou goest. Luke 9:57. Our Lord’s attitude to this man is one of severe discouragement because He knew what was in man.

MORNING & EVENING
He who affirms that Christianity makes men miserable, is himself an utter stranger to it. It were strange indeed, if it made us wretched, for see to what a position it exalts us! It makes us sons of God. Suppose you that God will give all the happiness to his enemies, and reserve all the…

THE UNBLAMEABLE ATTITUDE
My Utmost For His Highest If … thou rememberest that thy brother hath ought against thee … Matthew 5:23. If when you come to the altar, there you remember that your brother has anything against you, not—If you rake up something by a morbid sensitiveness, but—“If thou rememberest,” that is, it is brought to your…

WHEN ALL THY MERCIES, O MY GOD
Joseph Addison, 1672–1719 Oh, give thanks unto the Lord, for He is good; for His mercy endureth forever. (1 Chronicles 16:11 KJV) A reflection upon God’s blessings will always result in a response of worship and praise; a neglect of gratitude will eventually produce a lifestyle of self-centeredness. Joseph Addison, the author of this hymn,…

MORNING & EVENING
The vision in this chapter describes the condition of Israel in Zechariah’s day; but being interpreted in its aspect towards us, it describes the Church of God as we find it now in the world. The Church is compared to a myrtle grove flourishing in a valley. It is hidden, unobserved, secreted; courting no honour…
