Show him my salvation. Psalm 91:16 D.L. MOODYI believe we don’t learn the fringe of the subject of salvation down here. When our Master was on Earth, He said He had many more things to say, but He could not reveal them to His disciples because they were not ready to receive them. But when we go yonder, when these mortal bodies have put on immorality, when our spiritual faculties are loosed from the servitude of the flesh, I believe we shall be able to take more in. God will lead us from glory to glory, and show us … Read More >

Headed For Glory
And as they were coming down the mountain, he charged them to tell no one what they had seen, until the Son of Man had risen from the dead. Mark 9:9 D.L. MOODYIt is a singular fact that John, the only Gospel writer who was with Christ on the Mount of Transfiguration, does not give an account of it. Perhaps the scene was so solemn, so impressive, and so holy that he could not bring himself to write of it. Peter, who was also present, barely mentioned it in his writings that have come down to us. His only … Read More >

Twice Born
Jesus answered him, “Truly, truly, I say to you, unless one is born again he cannot see the kingdom of God.” John 3:3 D.L. MOODYThe only way to get into the kingdom of God is to be “born” into it. The law of this country requires that the president should be born in the country. When foreigners come to our shores, they have no right to complain against such a law, which forbids them from ever becoming president. Now, has not God a right to make a law that all those who become heirs of eternal life must be … Read More >

Other-Worldly Rest
Vanity of vanities, says the Preacher; all is vanity. Ecclesiastes 12:8 D.L. MOODYThe worship of pleasure is slavery. (Solomon tried pleasure and found bitter disappointment, and down the ages has come the bitter cry, “All is vanity.”) There is no rest in sin. The wicked know nothing about rest. The Scriptures tell us the wicked “are like the troubled sea, when it cannot rest.” (Isaiah 57:20). Man, like the sea, has no rest. He has had no rest since Adam fell, and there is none for him until he returns to God again, and the light of Christ shines … Read More >

Heaven Is Just A Bonus
Let me die the death of the upright, and let my end be like his! Numbers 23:10 D.L. MOODYThe sanctified man and the unsanctified one look at heaven very differently. The unsanctified man simply chooses heaven in preference to hell. He thinks that if he must go to either one, he would rather try heaven. It is like a man with a farm who has a place offered him in another country where there is said to be a gold mine; he hates to give up all he has and take any risk. But if he is going to … Read More >

Salvation City
His divine power has granted to us all things that pertain to life and godliness, through the knowledge of him who called us to his own glory and excellence." 2 Peter 1:3 D.L. MOODYThere is glory for the time to come. A great many people seem to forget that the best is before us. Dr. Andrew Bonar once said that everything before the true believer is “glorious.” This thought took hold on my soul, and I began to look the matter up and see what I could find in Scripture that was glorious hereafter. I found that the kingdom … Read More >

Heavenly Possessions
The one who conquers will have this heritage, and I will be his God and he will be my son. Revelation 21:7 D.L. MOODYAfter the Chicago fire, I met a man who said, “Moody, I hear you lost everything in the Chicago fire.” “Well,” I said, “you understood it wrong; I didn’t.” He said, “How much do you have left?” “I can’t tell you; I have got a good deal more left than I lost.” “You can’t tell how much you have?” “No.” “I didn’t know that you were ever that rich. What do you mean?” “I mean just … Read More >

The Coming Wedding Day
And the angel said to me, “Write this: Blessed are those who are invited to the marriage supper of the Lamb.” And he said to me, “These are the true words of God.” Revelation 19:9 D.L. MOODYI would rather die tonight and be sure of sharing the bliss of the purified in yon world of light than live for centuries with the wealth of this world at my feet, and miss the marriage supper of the Lamb. I have missed many appointments in my life, but by the grace of God, I mean to make sure of that one. … Read More >

Are We There Yet?
But, as it is written, “What no eye has seen, nor ear heard, nor the heart of man imagined, what God has prepared for those who love him”—these things God has revealed to us through the Spirit. For the Spirit searches everything, even the depths of God. 1 Corinthians 2:9–10 D.L. MOODYIt is said by travelers that in climbing the Alps, the houses of far distant villages can be seen with great distinctness, so that sometimes the number of panes of glass in a church window can be counted. The distance looks so short that the place to which … Read More >

In Heaven For You
And I assign to you, as my Father assigned to me, a kingdom, that you may eat and drink at my table in my kingdom and sit on thrones judging the twelve tribes of Israel. Luke 22:29–30 D.L. MOODYThink of the Lord stooping down and taking a poor drunkard right up and out of the gutter and putting his feet on the rock, and a new song in his mouth, and lifting him up above powers and principalities, above angels and archangels, seraphim and cherubim, up, up, up, onto the throne with Himself! Do you suppose that an angel … Read More >
