Today’s Quote He who does not watch against temptation sets himself up to fall. — John Owen

Spurgeon’s Daily Help We are never beyond the reach of temptation. Whether at home or out in the world, we are always at risk of being tempted to do wrong. The morning starts with danger, and the evening finds us still at risk. Those who are kept safe are kept by God, but woe to those who venture out or even walk around their

own house without protection. Those who feel most secure are often the most vulnerable. The armor-bearer of sin is self-confidence. Don’t be overconfident. We need a watchman for the night as well as a guardian for the day. Oh, may the love of Jesus compel us to stay active and useful! Public domain content from Daily Help by Charles Spurgeon.

The Spurgeon Birthday Book June 7 Christian, you can rejoice in your safety in Christ, but don’t think you’re safe from attack. You’re like a stream from Lebanon, rushing down cascades, breaking over rocks, being blocked by boulders, and hindered by fallen trees, but you must continue

forward with God’s unstoppable force until you reach the ocean of eternal joy. We are “cast down, but not forsaken.” Public domain content from The Spurgeon Birthday Book by Charles Spurgeon

Spurgeon’s Quote The Christian life is not a parade but a battle; stay vigilant, for the enemy is near. — Charles Spurgeon
