Faith's Checkbook (By: C.H. Spurgeon)

December 22, 2010
                                        Immediately Present

            God is our refuge and strength, a very present help in trouble.
                                                                                          ~ Psalm 46:1

  "Help that is not present when we need it is of small value. The anchor that is left at home is of no use to the seaman in the hour of storm. very few earthly helps could be called "very present." They are usually far in the seeking and far in the using. But the Lord is present when we seek Him, present when we need Him, and present when we have already enjoyed His aid.
  He is more than "present." He is very present: More present than the nearest friend can be, for He is in us in our trouble. He is our refuge; let us hide in Him. He is our strength; let us lean upon Him. He is our very present help; let us repose in Him now. We need not have a moment's care or an instant's fear." (By: Charles H. Spurgeon ~ One Minute Devotions)

  1. Please pray this prayer with me this morning for those who do not know Jesus yet. Lord,I am a sinner, I repent to You of all my sins to You right now. I accept You into my heart. I know that Jesus is Your Son, that He died on the Cross on Calvery's tree,that He descended into hell and concord it, and rose three days after He died, and that He sit's at the right hand of the Father now.I want You Lord Jesus to come into my heart right now and forever. Thank You Lord Jesus for washing away my sins so that I may live forever with You. In Jesus Name, Amen!

  2. Lord, we pray for those who do not have shelter, food, clothing, or anyone to be with this Holiday. Pray that those who need a house over their heads that You will provide them with a house; for those who do not have the proper clothing, that You will provide a coat,hat,gloves,snowpants,and warm clothesfor them,because this season is very cold. We pray that those who are in need of food, that You will provide them this season with a hot meal three times a day;and for those who do not have anyone to spend the Holiday with that You will provide a friend for them to spend it with so that they are not alone. And most of all Lord, we pray that You will be blessed over abundantly this season, that not one soul will be lost this year. This we pray in Christ Jesus' Precious Name we pray and receive it, Amen!
