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


June 10, 2011

                                                                A Shepherd Secures Them

They shall feed their flocks and lie down, and no one shall make them afraid.
                                                                                ~ Zephaniah 3:13

  "Yesterday we thought of the afflicted and poor people whom the Lord left to be a living seed in a dead world. The prophet says of such that they shall not work iniquity nor speak lies.
  What then? Would they be destroyed for their lack of weapons, in which the wicked place so much reliance? By no means! They should both feed and rest, and be free from danger. Sheep are very feeble creatures, and wolves are terrible enemies; yet at this hour, sheep are more numerous than wolves, and the cause of the sheep is always winning, while the cause of the wolves is always declining.
  One day flocks of sheep will cover the plains, and not one wolf will be left. The fact is that sheep have a shepherd, and this gives them protection, and peace. Who shall terrify the Lord's flock when He is near?"
(By: Charles H. Spurgeon ~ One Minute Devotions)

  1. Lord, thank You for keep Your sheep safe from the wolves that seek to harm us. Thank You for reducing the numbers of them down to nothing. Lord, I pray that this day will be the start of a new life for Your sheep, this I pray in Jesus Christ' precious Name, Amen! Lord, I ask that You will put Your Armor upon all of Your sheep, even when they forget to pray for it, this I ask in Jesus Christ' precious Name, Amen!
