 Charles Spurgeon's "Morning & Evening" Devotional for January 31 Morning  “The Lord bless thee and keep thee.”  Genesis 49:1-15  Genesis 49:2  Jacob was about to speak by inspiration. The blessing of a parent whose tongue is taught of God is priceless beyond conception.  Genesis 49:3-4  Though he was the firstborn Reuben missed the. birthright, because he was light and loose. Whatever good points may be in a man, if he be not sober, steady, and substantial, he will come to nothing. To be unstable as the waves of the sea is one of the worst of faults and mars the whole character.  Genesis 49:5-7  A great wrong was here disavowed by Jacob. He could not prevent it, for his sons acted hastily in selfwill, and he knew nothing of their murderous deed till it was over, but he takes care to bear his witness against it in the most solemn manner. The follies of youth will come home to men in their riper years. It is a great mercy when from our chi...

 Charles Spurgeon's "Faith's Checkbook" Devotional for January 31 “God Always Hears ”  - Micah 7:7 Friends may be unfaithful, but the LORD will not turn away from the gracious soul; on the contrary, He will hear all its desires. The prophet says, "Keep the doors of thy mouth from her that lieth in thy bosom. A man’s enemies are the men of his own house." This is a wretched state of affairs; but even in such a case the Best Friend remains true, and we may tell Him all our grief. Our wisdom is to look unto the LORD and not to quarrel with men or women. If our loving appeals are disregarded by our relatives, let us wait upon the God of our salvation, for He will hear us- He will hear us all the more because of the unkindness and oppression of others, and we shall soon have reason to cry, "Rejoice not against me, O mine enemy!"  Because God is the living God, He can hear; because He is a loving God, He will hear; because He is our covenant God, He has ...

 Days of Heaven on Earth Devotional for January 31 “Jesus, who of God is made unto us wisdom, and righteousness and sanctification and redemption”  (1 Corinthians 1:30) More and more we are coming to see the supreme importance of getting the right conception of sanctification, not as a blessing, but as a personal union with the personal Saviour and the indwelling Holy Spirit. Thousands of people get stranded after they have embarked on the great voyage of holiness. They find themselves failing and falling, and are astonished and perplexed, and they conclude that they must have been mistaken in their experience, and so they make a new attempt at the same thing and again fall, until at last, worn out with the experiment, they conclude that the experience is a delusion, or, at least, that it was never intended for them, and so they fall back into the old way, and their last state is worse than their first. What people need to-day to satisfy their deep hunger and to give them a pe...
