And suddenly there was with the angel a multitude of the heavenly host praising God and saying, “Glory to God in the highest, and on earth peace among those with whom he is pleased!" Luke 2:13–14
D.L. MOODYI have read that on the shores of the Adriatic Sea, the wives of fishermen whose husbands have gone far out upon the deep are in the habit of going down to the seashore at night and singing the first verse of some beautiful hymn. After they have sung it, they listen until they hear, brought on the wind across the sea, …

And all these blessings shall come upon you and overtake you, if you obey the voice of the LORD your God. Deuteronomy 28:2
D.L. MOODYDo you know every man who was blessed while Christ was on Earth, was blessed in the act of obedience? Ten lepers came to Him, and He said, “Go shew [show] yourselves unto the priests” (Luke 17:14). They might have said, “What good is that going to do us? It was the priest that sent us away from our families.” But they said nothing. And it came to pass, that as they went, they were …

Not many days later, the younger son gathered all he had and took a journey into a far country, and there he squandered his property in reckless living. Luke 15:13
D.L. MOODYHe started off holding his head very high that morning. He was full of pride and conceit, and he had very lofty ideas. If anyone had told him what he was coming to, he would have laughed in scorn. But mind you, once a man starts on the downward track, he will sink lower and lower unless, by the grace of God, he turns from sin to righteousness. …

And Simeon blessed them and said to Mary his mother, “Behold, this child is appointed for the fall and rising of many in Israel, and for a sign that is opposed.” Luke 2:34
D.L. MOODYDo you know that the gospel of Jesus Christ proves either a fragrance of life unto life or of death unto death? You sometimes hear people say: “We will go and hear this man preach. If it does us no good, it will do us no harm.” Don’t you believe it! Every time one hears the gospel and rejects it, the hardening process goes on. …

Then he touched their eyes, saying, “According to your faith let it be done to you.” Matthew 9:29
D.L. MOODYI remember a man telling me he preached for a number of years without any result. He used to say to his wife as they went to church, that he knew the people would not believe anything he said; and there was no blessing. At last, he saw his error; he asked God to help him and took courage, and then the blessing came. “According to your faith be it unto you.” This man had expected nothing, and he got …

Do not disbelieve, but believe. John 20:27
D.L. MOODYPeople say, “If I could only get rid of these doubts and fears, I think I would be ready to work.” Go to work and these doubts will disappear. There is work to be done. Life is short at the longest, so let us be about our Master’s business. While you are engaged in His work, these doubts will not assail you so much. I believe any Christian would have doubts in less than six months if he did nothing.
ERWIN LUTZERWhen fears and doubts assail us, we are tempted …

Simon, Simon, behold, Satan demanded to have you, that he might sift you like wheat, but I have prayed for you that your faith may not fail. And when you have turned again, strengthen your brothers. Luke 22:31–32
D.L. MOODYThere is no one beyond the reach of the tempter. Keep that in mind. Life may run smoothly for a while, but the testing time is coming.
ERWIN LUTZERYes, testing is coming. Even Christ was tempted of the devil. In fact, we read that Jesus was “led up by the Spirit” into the wilderness (Matthew 4:1). You might say, …

And the master said to the servant, “Go out to the highways and hedges and compel people to come in, that my house may be filled.” Luke 14:23
D.L. MOODYIs it not time for us to launch out into the deep? I have never seen people go out into the lanes and alleys, into the hedges and highways, and try to bring the people in, but the Lord gave His blessing. If a man has the courage to go right to his neighbor and speak to him about his soul, God is sure to smile upon the effort. The …

And Zacchaeus stood and said to the Lord, “Behold, Lord, the half of my goods I give to the poor. And if I have defrauded anyone of anything, I restore it fourfold.” Luke 19:8
D.L. MOODYA short speech, but how the words have come ringing down through the ages! By making that remark, Zacchaeus confessed his sin—that he had been dishonest. Besides that, he showed that he knew the requirements of the law of Moses. If a man had taken what did not belong to him, he was not only to return it, but to multiply it by four. …

And he said, “Jesus, remember me when you come into your kingdom.” And he said to him, “Truly, I say to you, today you will be with me in paradise.” Luke 23:42–43
D.L. MOODYWhen a prominent man dies, we are anxious to get his last words and acts. The last act of the Son of God was to save a sinner. That was a part of the glory of His death. He commenced His ministry by saving sinners, and ended it by saving this poor thief.
ERWIN LUTZERJesus was saving sinners up to and including His final breath. …
