Faith's Checkbook, by C.H. Spurgeon

The Bible warns of a profound distinction between God's chosen people and the world, with believers experiencing a new reality free from sin's corrupting influence. By understanding this division, Christians can maintain their spiritual identity and avoid the troubles that plague those who reject God's love.

The Bible teaches that ignorance of one's sins can be a major obstacle to spiritual growth, but God provides forgiveness and atonement through Jesus Christ. By acknowledging the unknown sins we commit in ignorance, we can experience a deeper sense of peace and reconciliation with God.

In the gloryland of heaven, believers will experience three profound blessings: serving Jesus without oppression or weariness, seeing His face as a present reward, and having His name etched on their foreheads.

The Bible warns that God will shorten the days of judgment for His elect, but what does this mean for believers today? By praying and interceding for others, Christians can help bring about a hastening of Christ's glorious appearing and preserve their nation from sin.

A steadfast faith in God can provide unshakeable stability, likened to a wall of brass that no one can batter down or break, as promised by the LORD. By embracing the doctrines of grace and standing firm in their convictions, believers can resist the attacks of Satan and his seed, knowing they are held secure by the Lord Himself.

A holy life is like sowing seed, where much is given out but seemingly buried, yet the LORD has set a harvest for those who sow light, promising an infinite profit and gladness. By embracing patience and perseverance, believers can trust that their souls will one day possess light and gladness, as foretold in Psalm 97:11.

David's heartfelt prayer in 2 Samuel 7:29 is a powerful reminder that we should plead God's promises at the throne, trusting in His word as a sure foundation for our expectations. By embracing this promise, believers can experience healing, restoration, and prosperity, as they boldly ask God to fulfill His Word in their lives and the lives of future generations.

The Bible teaches that even the smallest beginnings can lead to extraordinary growth, as seen in the parable of the mustard seed, which becomes a strong nation. By trusting in God and His promise to hasten increase in His time, believers can experience a life of multiplication and glory, regardless of their current size or strength.

A deeply personal and prayerful devotional, "From Every Sin" offers a powerful exploration of the human struggle with sin and the transformative power of God's salvation.

Weeping and sowing may seem like contradictory actions, but the Bible teaches that they can be intertwined in a fruitful way. By embracing deep sorrow and concern for others, believers can reap a joyful harvest of spiritual growth and fruitfulness.

A growing trend of skepticism towards the Bible is leading to a loss of reverence for God's Word, but a deep and holy fear of its commands can bring restfulness, humility, and a quiet conscience. By embracing this fear, believers can gain confidence in pleasing God and overcome ridicule from others, ultimately finding a sufficient consolation in the rewards of obedience.

Jesus' resurrection has made the life of believers certain, as they are one with Him and cannot die as long as He lives. This assurance brings comfort to believers under temptation, reminding them that their spiritual life is hidden with Christ in God.

Living by virtue of their union with the Son of God, believers must feed on Jesus to sustain their spiritual life. By meditating on Him, believing in Him, and assimilating Him through love and inner life, individuals can experience the profound delight of feeding on Christ.
