We are told by the Lord in Jeremiah not to glory in wisdom, might and riches, but in the things that the Lord delights: that He is the Lord who practice kindness, justice and righteousness. We lift up our prayers for our nation and it’s government starting in Jeremiah 9:23-24 that we would each glory in the things that the Lord delights. Prayer Insights … from the Hymnal Sweet hour of prayer! sweet hour of prayer! That calls me from a world of care, And bids me at my Father’s throne Make all my wants and wishes known; In seasons of distress and grief, My soul has often found relief, And oft escaped the tempter’s snare, By thy return, sweet hour of prayer! Sweet hour of prayer! sweet hour of prayer! Thy wings shall my petition bear To him whose truth and faithfulness Engage the waiting soul to bless; And since he bids me seek his face, Believe his Word and trust his grace, I’ll cast on him my every care, And wait for thee, sweet hour of prayer! Amen ~William Walford A Christian’s despair makes him pray; it is a despair of self. A worldling’s despair makes him rave against God and give up prayer. C.H. Spurgeon Did you know Spurgeon and Marx were contemporaries? Both struggled for the souls of men in completely different ways and means, and in the same city at the same time. It is extraordinary to me that both Karl Marx (1818-1883) and Charles Spurgeon (1834-1892) lived and worked in the same city at the same time. Both were, in a sense, evangelists contending for the souls of men with their competing visions of humanity. Moreover, each was at the height of his powers at the same time as the other. While Marx was preaching salvation through bloody revolution, Spurgeon, on the other side of the city, was preaching salvation through the blood and grace of Jesus Christ.
