Spurgeon’s Daily Help
Jesus possesses all the glory that Heaven can bestow upon him, and that ten thousand times ten thousand angels can honor him with. You can’t even begin to imagine his greatness; yet there will be an even greater revelation of his glory when he descends from Heaven with all his holy angels—"Then shall
he sit upon the throne of his glory." Oh, the splendor of that moment! But this is not the end; eternity will continue to resound with his praise. "Your throne, O God, is forever and ever!" Reader, if you want to rejoice in Christ’s glory in the future, you must find him glorious now. Do you?

Be wary of Satan’s small tools.
