His heart is a fountain of mercy, and its streams are perpetually flowing! (“Heavenly Aspirations!” John MacDuff, 1818-1895) Luke 7:12 Now when he came nigh to the gate of the city, behold, there was a dead man carried out, the only son of his mother, and she was a widow: and much people of the city […]
“For I will pour water upon him that is thirsty.”Isaiah 44:3 J.C.Philpot Thirst, as a feeling of the soul, in a spiritual sense, is certainly indicative of divine life.

Lose yourself in the impenetrable tracts of His Glory! (John MacDuff, “The Night Watches”) “Before the mountains were brought forth,or ever thou hadst formed the earth and the world,even from everlasting to everlasting, thou art God” Psalm 90:2 O my soul! Seek to fill yourself with thoughts of the Almighty. Lose yourself in the impenetrable tracts of His Glory! […]
Self Promoting Preachers “He that speaketh of himself seeketh his own glory: but he that seeketh his glory that sent him, the same is true, and no unrighteousness is in him.” (John 7:18) Multitudes there are, like Diotrephes, who fill the pulpits of churches in every age.

The most delightful doctrine!by SpurgeonI am sure there is no more delightful doctrine to aChristian, than that of CHRIST’S ABSOLUTE SOVEREIGNTY!
