Today’s Quote
Prayer is the soul’s commerce with Heaven.
— Thomas Watson
Spurgeon’s Daily Help
Prayer is like the first words of a believing infant, the battle cry of a fighting believer, and the final words of a saint falling asleep in Jesus. It is the breath, the watchword, the comfort, the strength, and the honor of a Christian.
Spiritual blessings are not just good things, but the best things,
so you can confidently ask for them. If no good thing will be withheld, how much more will God freely give the best things?
If you want power in prayer, you must live a pure life.
If our faith is to grow abundantly, we must maintain constant fellowship with God.

A moment ago, we saw two eagles soaring high above us, but they looked like insignificant birds from such a distance; they appeared so small that we thought they were crows. In the same way, people often disregard the day of judgment because it seems
so far away. But how close it really is! "The Judge stands at the door."

Spurgeon’s Quote
True prayer is neither a mere mental exercise nor a vocal performance. It is far deeper than that—it is spiritual transaction with the Creator of Heaven and Earth.
