Standing Firm In Suffering

Trust in him at all times, O people. Psalm 62:8 D.L. MOODYThere are a good many who trust God when they see all is light and clear before them, but not in the dark. They will trust when everything is fair and bright—no opposition, no persecution or bitterness, but all smooth sailing. Well, that is walking by sight, and not by faith. We are to trust in the Lord at all times. The Lord will not have one who cannot be tried. If you are starting out in the Lord’s work, you are going to be tempted. St. Augustine … 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 >

Starving Pride

Clothe yourselves, all of you, with humility toward one another, for God opposes the proud but gives grace to the humble. 1 Peter 5:5 D.L. MOODYA man can counterfeit love, he can counterfeit faith, he can counterfeit hope and all the other graces, but it is very difficult to counterfeit humility. You soon detect mock humility. They have a saying among the Arabs that as the tares and the wheat grow they show which God has blessed. The ears that God has blessed bow their heads and acknowledge every grain, and the more fruitful they are, the lower their … Read More >

The Sweetest Fruit

And the ransomed of the LORD shall return and come to Zion with singing; everlasting joy shall be upon their heads. Isaiah 35:10 D.L. MOODYI think there is a difference between happiness and joy. Happy-ness is caused by things which happen around me, and circumstances will mar it, but joy flows right on through trouble; joy flows on through the dark; joy flows in the night as well as in the day; joy flows all through persecution and opposition; it is an unceasing fountain bubbling up in the heart; a secret spring which the world can’t see and doesn’t … Read More >

Role Models

There is joy before the angels of God over one sinner who repents. Luke 15:10 D.L. MOODY“Joy in the presence of angels?” Perhaps the friends who have left the shores of time may be looking down upon us; and when they see someone they prayed for while on Earth turning to God, it sends a thrill of joy to their very hearts. Even now, some mother who has gone up yonder may be looking down upon a son or daughter, and if that child should say: “I will meet that mother of mine; I will decide for God,” the … 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 >

Acknowledging The Divine Presence

Then Jacob awoke from his sleep and said, “Surely the LORD is in this place, and I did not know it.” And he was afraid and said, “How awesome is this place! This is none other than the house of God, and this is the gate of heaven.” Genesis 28:16–17 D.L. MOODYWhen people come into the house of God, they put on a sober appearance. They act as if there was something very strange about the house of God. I would not say a word to detract from the holiness of the house of God. But let us bear … Read More >

God Alone

For Christ also suffered once for sins, the righteous for the unrighteous, that he might bring us to God, being put to death in the flesh but made alive in the spirit. 1 Peter 3:18 D.L. MOODYHere we see that Christ was raised up from the grave by the Spirit, and the power exercised to raise Christ’s dead body must raise our dead souls and quicken them. No other power on Earth can quicken a dead soul but the same power that raised the body of Jesus Christ out of Joseph’s sepulchre. And if we want that power to … Read More >

The Old Is Passed, The New Has Come

Since you have been born again, not of perishable seed but of imperishable. 1 Peter 1:23 D.L. MOODYGod has not only adopted us, but we are His by birth: we have been born into His kingdom. My boy was as much mine when he was a day old as now that he is fourteen. He was my son; although it did not appear what he would be when he attained manhood. He is mine; although he may have to undergo testing under tutors and governors. The children of God are not perfect; but we are perfectly His children. ERWIN … Read More >

All for God, Unashamed

All…All…All. Mathew 28:18–20 D.L. MOODYAll power is given unto me…go…teach all nations. Teach them what? To observe all things. There are a great many people now that are willing to observe what they like about Christ, but the things they don’t like, they turn away from. But His commission to His disciples was, “Go ye therefore, and teach all nations…to observe all things whatsoever I have commanded you” (see Matthew 28:19–20). And what right has a messenger who has been sent of God to change the message? ERWIN LUTZERBecause of the failure of many high-profile believers, many people … Read More >
