Vigilance on the Road: Protecting Our Holiness

Charles Spurgeon

There is a robber at every turn of the road to rob you of your jewels! There is a temptation in every mercy! There is a snare in every joy! If you ever reach heaven at last, it will be a miracle of divine grace, ascribed entirely to your Father’s power. Be on your guard!

Danger may find you in an hour when all seems most secure to you. Therefore, take heed to your ways, and watch unto prayer.

Vigilance on the Road: Protecting Our Holiness | Devotional By Charles H. Spurgeon

I will guard my ways. (Psalm 39:1)

Fellow pilgrim, do not say in your heart, “I will go here and there, and I will not sin,” for you are never so far out of danger of sinning as to boast of security.

The road is very muddy; it will be hard to pick your path so as not to soil your garments. This is a world of filth. You will need to always be watching and careful if you are to keep your hands clean.

There is a robber at every turn of the road to rob you of your jewels! There is a temptation in every mercy! There is a snare in every joy! If you ever reach heaven at last, it will be a miracle of divine grace, ascribed entirely to your Father’s power. Be on your guard!

When a man carries gunpowder in his hand, he should be careful that he does not go near a candle. You too must take care that you do not enter into temptation. Even your common actions are sharp-edged tools; you must be careful how you handle them. There is nothing in this world to promote a Christian’s piety, but everything to destroy it.

How desirous you should be to look up to God so that He may keep you! Your prayer should be, Uphold me that I may be safe (Psalm 119:117). Having prayed, you must also watch, guarding every thought, word, and action with holy jealousy.

Do not expose yourselves to evil unnecessarily, but if you are exposed to it, if you are told to go where the darts are flying, never venture forth without your shield!

If the devil finds you without your shield even once, he will rejoice that his hour of triumph is come, and he will soon wound you by his arrows! Though you cannot be slain, you can be wounded.

Be of sober spirit, be on the alert. Your adversary, the devil, prowls around like a roaring lion, seeking someone to devour (1 Peter 5:8).

Danger may find you in an hour when all seems most secure to you. Therefore, take heed to your ways, and watch unto prayer. No one ever fell into sin by being too watchful. May the Holy Spirit guide us in all our ways so that our ways always please the Lord!

The Blessing of the Presence of Jesus

Charles Spurgeon
He is as certainly with us now as He was with the disciples at the lake when they saw coals of fire, fish on the coals, and bread (John 21:9). Not physically, but still in real truth, Jesus is with us!
The shepherds returned, glorifying and praising God for all the things that they had heard and seen, as it was told them.

God’s Awesome Love

Charles Stanley
The shepherds returned, glorifying and praising God for all the things that they had heard and seen, as it was told them. With great awe and in complete reverence, the shepherds looked upon the baby Jesus. It was true.
The clear claim of Scripture, and Mary’s own testimony, is that she had never been physically intimate with any man.

The Announcement to Mary

John Macarthur
When we first meet Mary in Luke’s gospel, it is on the occasion when an archangel appeared to her suddenly and without fanfare to disclose to her God’s wonderful plan.
The precious blood of the Lamb slain removes the guilt and purges away the defilement of our sins of ignorance and carelessness.

Sanctifying Joy and Cleansing Grace

Charles Spurgeon
Amid the cheerfulness of household gatherings, it is easy to slide into sinful amusements and forget our declared character as Christians. It should not be so, but it is, that our days of feasting are very seldom days of sanctified enjoyment.
In Christmas, the worlds of secular and spiritual come together.

The Transcendental Importance of Christmas

Philip Yancey
Unlike most people, I do not feel much Dickensian nostalgia at Christmastime. The holiday fell just a few days after my father died early in my childhood, and all my memories of the season are darkened by the shadow of that sadness.
