  • Christian, are you still struggling with sin? You are not alone. Though we are new creatures (2 Cor. 5:17), but we still must put the flesh to death (Rom. 8:13). This is what it takes to deny oneself and daily take up your cross (Lk. 9:23).

    Paul understood this struggle all too well. As he explains in his letter to the Romans:

    “For we know that the Law is spiritual, but I am of flesh, sold into bondage to sin. For what I am doing, I do not understand; for I am not practicing what I would like to do, but I am doing the very thing I hate. But if I do the very thing I do not want to do, I agree with the Law, confessing that the Law is good. So now, no longer am I the one doing it, but sin which dwells in me. For I know that nothing good dwells in me, that is, in my flesh; for the willing is present in me, but the doing of the good is not. For the good that I want, I do not do, but I practice the very evil that I do not want. But if I am doing the very thing I do not want, I am no longer the one doing it, but sin which dwells in me.

    I find then the principle that evil is present in me, the one who wants to do good. For I joyfully concur with the law of God in the inner man, but I see a different law in the members of my body, waging war against the law of my mind and making me a prisoner of the law of sin which is in my members. Wretched man that I am! Who will set me free from the body of this death?” (Rom. 7:14-24)

    How wonderful then to know that we have a mediator who intercedes with the Father on our behalf, Jesus Christ, who gave Himself as a ransom for us (1 Tim. 2:5-6). He is our advocate when we sin (1 Jn. 2:1). Furthermore, because we have Him for an advocate, we know that “if we confess our sins, He is faithful and righteous to forgive us our sins and to cleanse us from all unrighteousness” (1 Jn. 1:9).

    How blessed we are that the apostle John can say to us with assuredness that “your sins have been forgiven you for His name’s sake” (1 Jn. 2:12).

    Still, though “He appeared in order to take away sins” (1 Jn. 3:5), let us not continue in them; instead, let us keep our hope fixed on Him and purify ourselves, just as He is pure (1 Jn. 3:3).

    Spurgeon’s Morning and Evening Devotions

    Evening, October 4

    "If any man sin, we have an advocate with the Father, Jesus Christ the righteous." 1 John 2:1

    "If any man sin, we have an advocate." Yes, though we sin, we have Him still. John does not say, "If any man sin he has forfeited his advocate," but "we have an advocate," sinners though we are. All the sin that a believer ever did, or can be allowed to commit, cannot destroy his interest in the Lord Jesus Christ, as his advocate. The name here given to our Lord is suggestive. "Jesus." Ah! then He is an advocate such as we need, for Jesus is the name of one whose business and delight it is to save. "They shall call His name Jesus, for He shall save His people from their sins." His sweetest name implies His success. Next, it is "Jesus Christ"- Christos, the anointed. This shows His authority to plead. The Christ has a right to plead, for He is the Father's own appointed advocate and elected priest. If He were of our choosing He might fail, but if God hath laid help upon one that is mighty, we may safely lay our trouble where God has laid His help. He is Christ, and therefore authorized; He is Christ, and therefore qualified, for the anointing has fully fitted Him for His work. He can plead so as to move the heart of God and prevail. What words of tenderness, what sentences of persuasion will the anointed use when He stands up to plead for me! One more letter of His name remains, "Jesus Christ the righteous." This is not only His character BUT His plea. It is His character, and if the Righteous One be my advocate, then my cause is good, or He would not have espoused it. It is His plea, for He meets the charge of unrighteousness against me by the plea that He is righteous. He declares Himself my substitute and puts His obedience to my account. My soul, thou hast a friend well fitted to be thine advocate, He cannot but succeed; leave thyself entirely in His hands.

  • Psalms
    Chapter 108

    1 (A Song or Psalm of David.) O God, my heart is fixed; I will sing and give praise, even with my glory.

    2 Awake, psaltery and harp: I myself will awake early.

    3 I will praise thee, O LORD, among the people: and I will sing praises unto thee among the nations.

    4 For thy mercy is great above the heavens: and thy truth reacheth unto the clouds.

    5 Be thou exalted, O God, above the heavens: and thy glory above all the earth;

    6 That thy beloved may be delivered: save with thy right hand, and answer me.

    7 God hath spoken in his holiness; I will rejoice, I will divide Shechem, and mete out the valley of Succoth.

    8 Gilead is mine; Manasseh is mine; Ephraim also is the strength of mine head; Judah is my lawgiver;

    9 Moab is my washpot; over Edom will I cast out my shoe; over Philistia will I triumph.

    10 Who will bring me into the strong city? who will lead me into Edom?

    11 Wilt not thou, O God, who hast cast us off? and wilt not thou, O God, go forth with our hosts?

    12 Give us help from trouble: for vain is the help of man.

    13 Through God we shall do valiantly: for he it is that shall tread down our enemies.




    Psalms
    Chapter 109

    1 (To the chief Musician, A Psalm of David.) Hold not thy peace, O God of my praise;

    2 For the mouth of the wicked and the mouth of the deceitful are opened against me: they have spoken against me with a lying tongue.

    3 They compassed me about also with words of hatred; and fought against me without a cause.

    4 For my love they are my adversaries: but I give myself unto prayer.

    5 And they have rewarded me evil for good, and hatred for my love.

    6 Set thou a wicked man over him: and let Satan stand at his right hand.

    7 When he shall be judged, let him be condemned: and let his prayer become sin.

    8 Let his days be few; and let another take his office.

    9 Let his children be fatherless, and his wife a widow.

    10 Let his children be continually vagabonds, and beg: let them seek their bread also out of their desolate places.

    11 Let the extortioner catch all that he hath; and let the strangers spoil his labour.

    12 Let there be none to extend mercy unto him: neither let there be any to favour his fatherless children.

    13 Let his posterity be cut off; and in the generation following let their name be blotted out.

    14 Let the iniquity of his fathers be remembered with the LORD; and let not the sin of his mother be blotted out.

    15 Let them be before the LORD continually, that he may cut off the memory of them from the earth.

    16 Because that he remembered not to shew mercy, but persecuted the poor and needy man, that he might even slay the broken in heart.

    17 As he loved cursing, so let it come unto him: as he delighted not in blessing, so let it be far from him.

    18 As he clothed himself with cursing like as with his garment, so let it come into his bowels like water, and like oil into his bones.

    19 Let it be unto him as the garment which covereth him, and for a girdle wherewith he is girded continually.

    20 Let this be the reward of mine adversaries from the LORD, and of them that speak evil against my soul.

    21 But do thou for me, O GOD the Lord, for thy name's sake: because thy mercy is good, deliver thou me.

    22 For I am poor and needy, and my heart is wounded within me.

    23 I am gone like the shadow when it declineth: I am tossed up and down as the locust.

    24 My knees are weak through fasting; and my flesh faileth of fatness.

    25 I became also a reproach unto them: when they looked upon me they shaked their heads.

    26 Help me, O LORD my God: O save me according to thy mercy:

    27 That they may know that this is thy hand; that thou, LORD, hast done it.

    28 Let them curse, but bless thou: when they arise, let them be ashamed; but let thy servant rejoice.

    29 Let mine adversaries be clothed with shame, and let them cover themselves with their own confusion, as with a mantle.

    30 I will greatly praise the LORD with my mouth; yea, I will praise him among the multitude.

    31 For he shall stand at the right hand of the poor, to save him from those that condemn his soul.




    Psalms
    Chapter 110

    1 (A Psalm of David.) The LORD said unto my Lord, Sit thou at my right hand, until I make thine enemies thy footstool.

    2 The LORD shall send the rod of thy strength out of Zion: rule thou in the midst of thine enemies.

    3 Thy people shall be willing in the day of thy power, in the beauties of holiness from the womb of the morning: thou hast the dew of thy youth.

    4 The LORD hath sworn, and will not repent, Thou art a priest for ever after the order of Melchizedek.

    5 The Lord at thy right hand shall strike through kings in the day of his wrath.

    6 He shall judge among the heathen, he shall fill the places with the dead bodies; he shall wound the heads over many countries.

    7 He shall drink of the brook in the way: therefore shall he lift up the head.

  • California Nurse Files Lawsuit Alleging 5,000% Surge in Fetal Deaths Linked to COVID mRNA Vaccines

    A dedicated labor and delivery nurse, Michelle Spencer, RN, has filed a significant lawsuit against Community Health System (operating as Community Medical Centers, CMC) in Fresno County Superior Court (Case No. 25CECG03557).

    The complaint alleges a dramatic increase in fetal deaths at Community Regional Medical Center (CRMC) following the 2021 rollout of COVID mRNA vaccines, with internal data and communications reportedly suppressed by hospital management.

    CRMC experienced a baseline of 1-2 stillbirths per month before 2021, but this surged to approximately 4 per week post-vaccine rollout, predominantly among fully vaccinated pregnant women.

    A September 2022 hospital-wide email titled “Record High Dead Babies” acknowledged the crisis but allegedly prompted no thorough investigation.

    Instead, management deflected blame to factors like “pesticide exposure” and avoided examining mRNA vaccines as a potential cause, with fetal death certificates allegedly falsified and no adverse events reported to VAERS.

    Renowned OB/GYN Dr. James A. Thorp provided evidence showing one California hospital’s stillbirth rate climbing from the national average of ~5.7 per 1,000 births pre-2021 to 29.3 per 1,000 after July 2021, aligning with the vaccine rollout timeline.

    After Spencer leaked the email to media outlets, she faced alleged retaliation, including demotion, denial of a $5,000 performance bonus, and a questionable HIPAA violation warning.

    Her complaint to the California Department of Public Health was reportedly dismissed after CMC provided misleading information, potentially influenced by financial ties to CDC programs and pharmaceutical partnerships.

    Filed under California’s public interest statute (CCP §1021.5), the lawsuit, led by attorneys John W. Howard and Gregory J. Glaser seek compensatory and punitive damages, an independent audit of fetal death data, mandatory VAERS reporting, and a halt to coercive vaccine policies for pregnant women without robust informed consent.

  • Believer, do you daily say with David,
    “Bless the LORD, O my soul,
    And forget none of His benefits;
    Who pardons all your iniquities,
    Who heals all your diseases;
    Who redeems your life from the pit,
    Who crowns you with lovingkindness and compassion;
    Who satisfies your years with good things,
    So that your youth is renewed like the eagle” (Ps. 103:2-5)?

    Do you sing His praises, as did Deborah (Judges 5:3) or as David exhorts (Ps. 7:17)?

    Over and over in the Psalms, David speaks of singing praise to the Lord. Do you do so? How often? Even Isaiah tells us to “Sing to the Lord a new song, sing His praise from the end of the earth” (Isa. 42:10)!

    We have much for which to praise Him, not the least of which is our salvation. Does He not also deserve praise simply for who He is? Absolutely! He is God, almighty, ever present, creator and upholder of all. To Him all praise is due!

    Shall we rob Him of His glory? Shall we not pay Him that which He is owed?

    This isn’t merely an Old Testament phenomenon. Paul, in quoting the Old Testament, tells us we should be praising Him among the gentiles and singing to His name (Rom. 15:9) and that even the gentiles should praise Him (Rom. 15:11).

    If you are not already, heed the exhortation of the author of Hebrews, and through Jesus Christ, “let us continually offer up a sacrifice of praise to God” (Heb. 13:15).

    As the voice from the throne came to John in his vision, let us “give praise to our God, all you His bond-servants, you who fear Him, the small and the great” (Rev. 19:5).

    "Sing forth the honour of His name, make His praise glorious." Psalm 66:2

    It is not left to our own option whether we shall praise God or not. Praise is God's most righteous due, and every Christian, as the recipient of His grace, is bound to praise God from day to day. It is true we have no authoritative rubric for daily praise; we have no commandment prescribing certain hours of song and thanksgiving: but the law written upon the heart teaches us that it is right to praise God; and the unwritten mandate comes to us with as much force as if it had been recorded on the tables of stone, or handed to us from the top of thundering Sinai. Yes, it is the Christian's duty to praise God. It is not only a pleasurable exercise, but it is the absolute obligation of his life. Think not ye who are always mourning, that ye are guiltless in this respect, or imagine that ye can discharge your duty to your God without songs of praise. You are bound by the bonds of His love to bless His name so long as you live, and His praise should continually be in your mouth, for you are blessed, in order that you may bless Him;"this people have I formed for myself, they shall show forth my praise"; and if you do not praise God, you are not bringing forth the fruit which He, as the Divine Husbandman, has a right to expect at your hands. Let not your harp then hang upon the willows, but take it down, and strive, with a grateful heart, to bring forth its loudest music. Arise and chant His praise. With every morning's dawn, lift up your notes of thanksgiving, and let every setting sun be followed with your song. Girdle the earth with your praises; surround it with an atmosphere of melody, and God Himself will hearken from heaven and accept your music.
    E'en so I love Thee, and will love,
    And in Thy praise will sing,
    Because Thou art my loving God,
    And my redeeming King.
    Believer, do you daily say with David, “Bless the LORD, O my soul, And forget none of His benefits; Who pardons all your iniquities, Who heals all your diseases; Who redeems your life from the pit, Who crowns you with lovingkindness and compassion; Who satisfies your years with good things, So that your youth is renewed like the eagle” (Ps. 103:2-5)? Do you sing His praises, as did Deborah (Judges 5:3) or as David exhorts (Ps. 7:17)? Over and over in the Psalms, David speaks of singing praise to the Lord. Do you do so? How often? Even Isaiah tells us to “Sing to the Lord a new song, sing His praise from the end of the earth” (Isa. 42:10)! We have much for which to praise Him, not the least of which is our salvation. Does He not also deserve praise simply for who He is? Absolutely! He is God, almighty, ever present, creator and upholder of all. To Him all praise is due! Shall we rob Him of His glory? Shall we not pay Him that which He is owed? This isn’t merely an Old Testament phenomenon. Paul, in quoting the Old Testament, tells us we should be praising Him among the gentiles and singing to His name (Rom. 15:9) and that even the gentiles should praise Him (Rom. 15:11). If you are not already, heed the exhortation of the author of Hebrews, and through Jesus Christ, “let us continually offer up a sacrifice of praise to God” (Heb. 13:15). As the voice from the throne came to John in his vision, let us “give praise to our God, all you His bond-servants, you who fear Him, the small and the great” (Rev. 19:5). Praise the Lord! —————— Spurgeon’s Morning and Evening Devotions Morning, September 30 "Sing forth the honour of His name, make His praise glorious."

    Chapter 94

    1 O LORD God, to whom vengeance belongeth; O God, to whom vengeance belongeth, shew thyself.

    2 Lift up thyself, thou judge of the earth: render a reward to the proud.

    3 LORD, how long shall the wicked, how long shall the wicked triumph?

    4 How long shall they utter and speak hard things? and all the workers of iniquity boast themselves?

    5 They break in pieces thy people, O LORD, and afflict thine heritage.

    6 They slay the widow and the stranger, and murder the fatherless.

    7 Yet they say, The LORD shall not see, neither shall the God of Jacob regard it.

    8 Understand, ye brutish among the people: and ye fools, when will ye be wise?

    9 He that planted the ear, shall he not hear? he that formed the eye, shall he not see?

    10 He that chastiseth the heathen, shall not he correct? he that teacheth man knowledge, shall not he know?

    11 The LORD knoweth the thoughts of man, that they are vanity.

    12 Blessed is the man whom thou chastenest, O LORD, and teachest him out of thy law;

    13 That thou mayest give him rest from the days of adversity, until the pit be digged for the wicked.

    14 For the LORD will not cast off his people, neither will he forsake his inheritance.

    15 But judgment shall return unto righteousness: and all the upright in heart shall follow it.

    16 Who will rise up for me against the evildoers? or who will stand up for me against the workers of iniquity?

    17 Unless the LORD had been my help, my soul had almost dwelt in silence.

    18 When I said, My foot slippeth; thy mercy, O LORD, held me up.

    19 In the multitude of my thoughts within me thy comforts delight my soul.

    20 Shall the throne of iniquity have fellowship with thee, which frameth mischief by a law?

    21 They gather themselves together against the soul of the righteous, and condemn the innocent blood.

    22 But the LORD is my defence; and my God is the rock of my refuge.

    23 And he shall bring upon them their own iniquity, and shall cut them off in their own wickedness; yea, the LORD our God shall cut them off.




    Psalms
    Chapter 95

    1 O come, let us sing unto the LORD: let us make a joyful noise to the rock of our salvation.

    2 Let us come before his presence with thanksgiving, and make a joyful noise unto him with psalms.

    3 For the LORD is a great God, and a great King above all gods.

    4 In his hand are the deep places of the earth: the strength of the hills is his also.

    5 The sea is his, and he made it: and his hands formed the dry land.

    6 O come, let us worship and bow down: let us kneel before the LORD our maker.

    7 For he is our God; and we are the people of his pasture, and the sheep of his hand. To day if ye will hear his voice,

    8 Harden not your heart, as in the provocation, and as in the day of temptation in the wilderness:

    9 When your fathers tempted me, proved me, and saw my work.

    10 Forty years long was I grieved with this generation, and said, It is a people that do err in their heart, and they have not known my ways:

    11 Unto whom I sware in my wrath that they should not enter into my rest.

    1 The LORD reigneth, he is clothed with majesty; the LORD is clothed with strength, wherewith he hath girded himself: the world also is stablished, that it cannot be moved.

    2 Thy throne is established of old: thou art from everlasting.

    3 The floods have lifted up, O LORD, the floods have lifted up their voice; the floods lift up their waves.

  • BREAKING: The White House is preparing for "MASS LAYOFFS" in case the government shuts down, taking advantage of a funding interruption to lay off additional federal workers.
    Chuck Schumer is facing a major setback!
    - Shutdown the government, Trump dismisses bureaucrats
    - Keep it running, and give in to Trump
    "The memo from the White House Office of Management and Budget directs agencies to consider firing employees working on any program that is not funded by another law, such as Republicans’ One Big Beautiful Bill Act enacted in July, and which does not align with the president’s priorities. Once government funding is reinstated after a shutdown, agencies should revise their plans to keep only the smallest number of employees necessary to legally operate, the memo says," reports WaPo.

  • Believer, is God unjust in His dealings with humanity? May it never be! Our God is a just God, and any penalties He imposes for sin are surely earned and absolutely justified.

    Yet God is also a merciful God. In His patience, He delayed punishment for many, waiting for the appointed time when His salvation would be revealed in Christ. And so, He how shows mercy and justifies those who believe (Rom. 3:21-26).

    To whom does He show this mercy? To whomever He pleases, according to His will. As Scripture says, “I will have mercy on whom I have mercy…So then, He has mercy on whom He desires…” (Rom. 9:15-18). Does that make Him unjust? By no means!

    As already stated, He is just and justified in condemning those who sin, for that condemnation is earned. Showing mercy to some is in not injustice - it is grace. “Where then is boasting? It is excluded” (Rom. 3:27), because our justification is not earned, it is granted.

    It is God who justifies. It is God who saves. It is God who chooses, as Jesus even said to His disciples, “you did not choose Me, but I chose you” (Jn. 15:16).

    Let us therefore be humbled by the fact that God is “just, and the justifier of the one who has faith” (Rom. 3:26). We have contributed nothing to our salvation except the sin that made it necessary. We do not justify ourselves, but in His mercy, God justifies us according to His will, for His glory. “For by grace you have been saved through faith; and that not of yourselves, it is the gift of God; not as a result of works, so that no one may boast” (Eph. 2:8-9).

    Spurgeon’s Morning and Evening Devotions

    Morning, September 25

    "Just, and the justifier of him which believeth." Romans 3:26

    Being justified by faith, we have peace with God. Conscience accuses no longer. Judgment now decides for the sinner instead of against him. Memory looks back upon past sins, with deep sorrow for the sin, but yet with no dread of any penalty to come; for Christ has paid the debt of His people to the last jot and tittle, and received the divine receipt; and unless God can be so unjust as to demand double payment for one debt, no soul for whom Jesus died as a substitute can ever be cast into hell. It seems to be one of the very principles of our enlightened nature to believe that God is just; we feel that it must be so, and this gives us our terror at first; but is it not marvellous that this very same belief that God is just, becomes afterwards the pillar of our confidence and peace! If God be just, I, a sinner, alone and without a substitute, must be punished; but Jesus stands in my stead and is punished for me; and now, if God be just, I, a sinner, standing in Christ, can never be punished. God must change His nature before one soul, for whom Jesus was a substitute, can ever by any possibility suffer the lash of the law. Therefore, Jesus having taken the place of the believer- having rendered a full equivalent to divine wrath for all that His people ought to have suffered as the result of sin, the believer can shout with glorious triumph, "Who shall lay anything to the charge of God's elect?" Not God, for He hath justified; not Christ, for He hath died, "yea rather hath risen again." My hope lives not because I am not a sinner, but because I am a sinner for whom Christ died; my trust is not that I am holy, but that being unholy, He is my righteousness. My faith rests not upon what I am, or shall be, or feel, or know, but in what Christ is, in what He has done, and in what He is now doing for me. On the lion of justice the fair maid of hope rides like a queen.

  • Psalms
    Chapter 89

    1 (Maschil of Ethan the Ezrahite.) I will sing of the mercies of the LORD for ever: with my mouth will I make known thy faithfulness to all generations.

    2 For I have said, Mercy shall be built up for ever: thy faithfulness shalt thou establish in the very heavens.

    3 I have made a covenant with my chosen, I have sworn unto David my servant,

    4 Thy seed will I establish for ever, and build up thy throne to all generations. Selah.

    5 And the heavens shall praise thy wonders, O LORD: thy faithfulness also in the congregation of the saints.

    6 For who in the heaven can be compared unto the LORD? who among the sons of the mighty can be likened unto the LORD?

    7 God is greatly to be feared in the assembly of the saints, and to be had in reverence of all them that are about him.

    8 O LORD God of hosts, who is a strong LORD like unto thee? or to thy faithfulness round about thee?

    9 Thou rulest the raging of the sea: when the waves thereof arise, thou stillest them.

    10 Thou hast broken Rahab in pieces, as one that is slain; thou hast scattered thine enemies with thy strong arm.

    11 The heavens are thine, the earth also is thine: as for the world and the fulness thereof, thou hast founded them.

    12 The north and the south thou hast created them: Tabor and Hermon shall rejoice in thy name.

    13 Thou hast a mighty arm: strong is thy hand, and high is thy right hand.

    14 Justice and judgment are the habitation of thy throne: mercy and truth shall go before thy face.

    15 Blessed is the people that know the joyful sound: they shall walk, O LORD, in the light of thy countenance.

    16 In thy name shall they rejoice all the day: and in thy righteousness shall they be exalted.

    17 For thou art the glory of their strength: and in thy favour our horn shall be exalted.

    18 For the LORD is our defence; and the Holy One of Israel is our king.

    19 Then thou spakest in vision to thy holy one, and saidst, I have laid help upon one that is mighty; I have exalted one chosen out of the people.

    20 I have found David my servant; with my holy oil have I anointed him:

    21 With whom my hand shall be established: mine arm also shall strengthen him.

    22 The enemy shall not exact upon him; nor the son of wickedness afflict him.

    23 And I will beat down his foes before his face, and plague them that hate him.

    24 But my faithfulness and my mercy shall be with him: and in my name shall his horn be exalted.

    25 I will set his hand also in the sea, and his right hand in the rivers.

    26 He shall cry unto me, Thou art my father, my God, and the rock of my salvation.

    27 Also I will make him my firstborn, higher than the kings of the earth.

    28 My mercy will I keep for him for evermore, and my covenant shall stand fast with him.

    29 His seed also will I make to endure for ever, and his throne as the days of heaven.

    30 If his children forsake my law, and walk not in my judgments;

    31 If they break my statutes, and keep not my commandments;

    32 Then will I visit their transgression with the rod, and their iniquity with stripes.

    33 Nevertheless my lovingkindness will I not utterly take from him, nor suffer my faithfulness to fail.

    34 My covenant will I not break, nor alter the thing that is gone out of my lips.

    35 Once have I sworn by my holiness that I will not lie unto David.

    36 His seed shall endure for ever, and his throne as the sun before me.

    37 It shall be established for ever as the moon, and as a faithful witness in heaven. Selah.

    38 But thou hast cast off and abhorred, thou hast been wroth with thine anointed.

    39 Thou hast made void the covenant of thy servant: thou hast profaned his crown by casting it to the ground.

    40 Thou hast broken down all his hedges; thou hast brought his strong holds to ruin.

    41 All that pass by the way spoil him: he is a reproach to his neighbours.

    42 Thou hast set up the right hand of his adversaries; thou hast made all his enemies to rejoice.

    43 Thou hast also turned the edge of his sword, and hast not made him to stand in the battle.

    44 Thou hast made his glory to cease, and cast his throne down to the ground.

    45 The days of his youth hast thou shortened: thou hast covered him with shame. Selah.

    46 How long, LORD? wilt thou hide thyself for ever? shall thy wrath burn like fire?

    47 Remember how short my time is: wherefore hast thou made all men in vain?

    48 What man is he that liveth, and shall not see death? shall he deliver his soul from the hand of the grave? Selah.

    49 Lord, where are thy former lovingkindnesses, which thou swarest unto David in thy truth?

    50 Remember, Lord, the reproach of thy servants; how I do bear in my bosom the reproach of all the mighty people;

    51 Wherewith thine enemies have reproached, O LORD; wherewith they have reproached the footsteps of thine anointed.

    52 Blessed be the LORD for evermore. Amen, and Amen.
    Psalms Chapter 89 1 (Maschil of Ethan the Ezrahite.) I will sing of the mercies of the LORD for ever: with my mouth will I make known thy faithfulness to all generations. 2 For I have said, Mercy shall be built up for ever: thy faithfulness shalt thou establish in the very heavens. 3 I have made a covenant with my chosen, I have sworn unto David my servant, 4 Thy seed will I establish for ever, and build up thy throne to all generations. Selah. 5 And the heavens shall praise thy wonders, O LORD: thy faithfulness also in the congregation of the saints. 6 For who in the heaven can be compared unto the LORD? who among the sons of the mighty can be likened unto the LORD? 7 God is greatly to be feared in the assembly of the saints, and to be had in reverence of all them that are about him. 8 O LORD God of hosts, who is a strong LORD like unto thee? or to thy faithfulness round about thee? 9 Thou rulest the raging of the sea: when the waves thereof arise, thou stillest them. 10 Thou hast broken Rahab in pieces, as one that is slain; thou hast scattered thine enemies with thy strong arm. 11 The heavens are thine, the earth also is thine: as for the world and the fulness thereof, thou hast founded them. 12 The north and the south thou hast created them: Tabor and Hermon shall rejoice in thy name. 13 Thou hast a mighty arm: strong is thy hand, and high is thy right hand. 14 Justice and judgment are the habitation of thy throne: mercy and truth shall go before thy face. 15 Blessed is the people that know the joyful sound: they shall walk, O LORD, in the light of thy countenance. 16 In thy name shall they rejoice all the day: and in thy righteousness shall they be exalted. 17 For thou art the glory of their strength: and in thy favour our horn shall be exalted. 18 For the LORD is our defence; and the Holy One of Israel is our king. 19 Then thou spakest in vision to thy holy one, and saidst, I have laid help upon one that is mighty; I have exalted one chosen out of the people. 20 I have found David my servant; with my holy oil have I anointed him: 21 With whom my hand shall be established: mine arm also shall strengthen him. 22 The enemy shall not exact upon him; nor the son of wickedness afflict him. 23 And I will beat down his foes before his face, and plague them that hate him. 24 But my faithfulness and my mercy shall be with him: and in my name shall his horn be exalted. 25 I will set his hand also in the sea, and his right hand in the rivers. 26 He shall cry unto me, Thou art my father, my God, and the rock of my salvation. 27 Also I will make him my firstborn, higher than the kings of the earth. 28 My mercy will I keep for him for evermore, and my covenant shall stand fast with him. 29 His seed also will I make to endure for ever, and his throne as the days of heaven. 30 If his children forsake my law, and walk not in my judgments; 31 If they break my statutes, and keep not my commandments; 32 Then will I visit their transgression with the rod, and their iniquity with stripes. 33 Nevertheless my lovingkindness will I not utterly take from him, nor suffer my faithfulness to fail. 34 My covenant will I not break, nor alter the thing that is gone out of my lips. 35 Once have I sworn by my holiness that I will not lie unto David. 36 His seed shall endure for ever, and his throne as the sun before me. 37 It shall be established for ever as the moon, and as a faithful witness in heaven. Selah. 38 But thou hast cast off and abhorred, thou hast been wroth with thine anointed. 39 Thou hast made void the covenant of thy servant: thou hast profaned his crown by casting it to the ground. 40 Thou hast broken down all his hedges; thou hast brought his strong holds to ruin. 41 All that pass by the way spoil him: he is a reproach to his neighbours. 42 Thou hast set up the right hand of his adversaries; thou hast made all his enemies to rejoice. 43 Thou hast also turned the edge of his sword, and hast not made him to stand in the battle. 44 Thou hast made his glory to cease, and cast his throne down to the ground. 45 The days of his youth hast thou shortened: thou hast covered him with shame.

  • King David often warned of being counted among sinners, and pleaded with God that He might instead be redeemed. “How blessed is the man who does not walk in the counsel of the wicked, nor stand in the path of sinners, nor sit in the seat of scoffers! But his delight is in the law of the LORD, and in His law he meditates day and night” (Ps. 1:1-2). This should be our plea as well.

    Let us not walk as do the lost, neither feeling aimlessly in the dark nor lusting after that against which God warns. This is often difficult, as though we are no longer of world, we must yet live in the world. Paul himself faced this treacherous battle, lamenting that he often did what he did not want, and did not do what he wanted (Rom. 7:15,19).

    The flesh is constantly at war with the spirit (Gal. 5:17). So, how may we keep ourselves pure? By keeping our lives according to God’s word. By seeking God with all our heart. By hiding God’s word in our heart (Ps. 119:9-11).

    Meditating upon God’s word is a critical aspect of the Christian life, and exhortations to this in Scripture abound.

    So, as did David, let us give ourselves wholeheartedly to God and His word. Let us not be found to be walking as the sinners, but instead, let us cry out to God for His redemption (Ps. 26:1,4,11), that our souls not be gathered with those of sinners.

    "Gather not my soul with sinners." Psalm 26:9

    Fear made David pray thus, for something whispered, "Perhaps, after all, thou mayst be gathered with the wicked." That fear, although marred by unbelief, springs, in the main, from holy anxiety, arising from the recollection of past sin. Even the pardoned man will enquire, "What if at the end my sins should be remembered, and I should be left out of the catalogue of the saved?" He recollects his present unfruitfulness- so little grace, so little love, so little holiness, and looking forward to the future, he considers his weakness and the many temptations which beset him, and he fears that he may fall, and become a prey to the enemy. A sense of sin and present evil, and his prevailing corruptions, compel him to pray, in fear and trembling, "Gather not my soul with sinners." Reader, if you have prayed this prayer, and if your character be rightly described in the Psalm from which it is taken, you need not be afraid that you shall be gathered with sinners. Have you the two virtues which David had- the outward walking in integrity, and the inward trusting in the Lord? Are you resting upon Christ's sacrifice, and can you compass the altar of God with humble hope? If so, rest assured, with the wicked you never shall be gathered, for that calamity is impossible. The gathering at the judgment is like to like. "Gather ye together first the tares, and bind them in bundles to burn them: but gather the wheat into my barn." If, then, thou art like God's people, thou shalt be with God's people. You cannot be gathered with the wicked, for you are too dearly bought. Redeemed by the blood of Christ, you are His for ever, and where He is, there must His people be. You are loved too much to be cast away with reprobates. Shall one dear to Christ perish? Impossible! Hell cannot hold thee! Heaven claims thee! Trust in thy Surety and fear not!

  • Psalms
    Chapter 81

    1 (To the chief Musician upon Gittith, A Psalm of Asaph.) Sing aloud unto God our strength: make a joyful noise unto the God of Jacob.

    2 Take a psalm, and bring hither the timbrel, the pleasant harp with the psaltery.

    3 Blow up the trumpet in the new moon, in the time appointed, on our solemn feast day.

    4 For this was a statute for Israel, and a law of the God of Jacob.

    5 This he ordained in Joseph for a testimony, when he went out through the land of Egypt: where I heard a language that I understood not.

    6 I removed his shoulder from the burden: his hands were delivered from the pots.

    7 Thou calledst in trouble, and I delivered thee; I answered thee in the secret place of thunder: I proved thee at the waters of Meribah. Selah.

    8 Hear, O my people, and I will testify unto thee: O Israel, if thou wilt hearken unto me;

    9 There shall no strange god be in thee; neither shalt thou worship any strange god.

    10 I am the LORD thy God, which brought thee out of the land of Egypt: open thy mouth wide, and I will fill it.

    11 But my people would not hearken to my voice; and Israel would none of me.

    12 So I gave them up unto their own hearts' lust: and they walked in their own counsels.

    13 Oh that my people had hearkened unto me, and Israel had walked in my ways!

    14 I should soon have subdued their enemies, and turned my hand against their adversaries.

    15 The haters of the LORD should have submitted themselves unto him: but their time should have endured for ever.

    16 He should have fed them also with the finest of the wheat: and with honey out of the rock should I have satisfied thee.

  • Brethren, we have been set free! Free from the law. Free from our bondage to sin. Free to obey God from a sincere heart.

    Now that we are loosed from our previous bonds, shall we turn back to them? May it never be! For we being freed from our slavery to sin are now purchased (1 Cor. 7:22-23) slaves of God (Rom. 6:22). Shall the slave disobey His master? No, we are to obey.

    But we are told “it was for freedom that Christ set us free” (Gal. 5:1). Yes, this is true. But we are not to use our freedom as an excuse for sin (1 Pet. 2:16). We have liberty, but it should be used in pursuit of God and His purpose, and in that liberty, we should be sure we don’t cause others to stumble (1 Cor. 8:9). Just as Christ sacrificed Himself, and His personal will, to that of the Father, so should we; He set an example for us that we should follow in His steps (1 Pet. 2:21).

    Brothers and sisters, let us not use our liberty to indulge selfishness and fleshly desires, but instead let us serve one another (Gal. 5:13). For “All things are lawful, but not all things are profitable. All things are lawful, but not all things edify” (1 Cor. 10:23).

    Let us use our liberty to do those things which are profitable, which are edifying, not only for ourselves, but for others as is our calling.

    "The liberty wherewith Christ hath made us free." Galatians 5:1

    This "liberty" makes us free to heaven's charter- the Bible. Here is a choice passage, believer, "When thou passest through the rivers, I will be with thee." You are free to that. Here is another: "The mountains shall depart, and the hills be removed, but my kindness shall not depart from thee"; you are free to that. You are a welcome guest at the table of the promises. Scripture is a never-failing treasury filled with boundless stores of grace. It is the bank of heaven; you may draw from it as much as you please, without let or hindrance. Come in faith and you are welcome to all covenant blessings. There is not a promise in the Word which shall be withheld. In the depths of tribulations let this freedom comfort you; amidst waves of distress let it cheer you; when sorrows surround thee let it be thy solace. This is thy Father's love-token; thou art free to it at all times. Thou art also free to the throne of grace. It is the believer's privilege to have access at all times to His heavenly Father. Whatever our desires, our difficulties, our wants, we are at liberty to spread all before Him. It matters not how much we may have sinned, we may ask and expect pardon. It signifies nothing how poor we are, we may plead His promise that He will provide all things needful. We have permission to approach His throne at all times- in midnight's darkest hour, or in noontide's most burning heat. Exercise thy right, O believer, and live up to thy privilege. Thou art free to all that is treasured up in Christ- wisdom, righteousness, sanctification, and redemption. It matters not what thy need is, for there is fulness of supply in Christ, and it is there for thee. O what a "freedom" is thine! freedom from condemnation, freedom to the promises, freedom to the throne of grace, and at last freedom to enter heaven!
