FOOD FOR THOUGHT – c.h.
spurgeon
Faith is trusting
Christ. It is the end of mystery and the beginning of simplicity; the
giving up of all those idle feelings and believings that aught else can
save the soul, and the reception of that one master thought, that Christ
Jesus is exalted on high to be a Prince and a Savior, to give repentance
and remission of sins.
******************************
Those soul-quickening words, "Believe and live,"
comprehend the whole Gospel of God. May the Divine Spirit lead you now out
of self unto Christ.

(Psalm
116:1) "I love the LORD,
because he hath heard my voice and my supplications."

(Nahum
1:7) "The LORD is good,
a strong hold in the day of trouble; and he knoweth them that trust in
him."
"Jehovah
is good."
1. Good in Himself
essentially and independently.
2. Good eternally
and unchangeable.
3. Good in each
person: Father, Son, and Holy Ghost.
4. Good in all His
acts of grace.
5. Good in all
former acts of providence.
6. Good in His
present act, be it what it may.
7. Good for a
stronghold: to be trusted in trouble.
8. Good to His own
people, who find their goodness in Him.

******************************
Let us believe
in the goodness of the Lord even when we cannot discern it with the eye of
sense.
Let us fly
to His protection when storms of trouble fall.
Let us confide
in His loving care when hunted by our enemies.
Let us take care
that we rely upon Him, in Christ Jesus, for salvation.

******************************
Many talk of
trusting God when indeed they know nothing of real faith. How are we to
know who is, and who is not, a believer? This question is hard to answer
in times of prosperity, but not in the day of trouble: then the true
truster is calm and quiet in his God, and the mere pretender is at his
wits' end. Our text seems to hint as much. Everybody can find a bird's
nest in winter when the trees are bare, but the green leaves hide them; so
are believers discovered by adversity. One thing, however, should never be
forgotten: whether we know believers or not, God knows them. He does not
include one hypocrite in the number, nor exclude one sincere truster, even
though he be of little faith. He knows infallibly, and universally. Does
he know me, even me, as one of those who trust in him? The Lord knoweth
them that are his, and they know him as their stronghold.

CALL
TO WORSHIP
Isaac Watts
(1709)
Begin,
my tongue, some heav'nly theme
And speak some boundless thing-
The mighty works and mightier NAME
Of our eternal King.
Tell of His wondrous faithfulness,
And sound His name abroad;
Sing the sweet promise of His grace,
And our Redeeming Lord.
Proclaim salvation from the Lord
For sinful, dying men;
His hand has writ the Holy Word
With an immortal pen.
Oh might I hear Thy heav'nly tongue
But whisper, "Thou art mine!"
Those precious words would raise my song
To notes almost divine!
(Tune: "O For A Thousand Tongues")
******************************
(Psalm 100) "Make
a joyful noise unto the LORD, all ye lands.
Serve the LORD with gladness: come before his presence with
singing. Know ye that the
LORD he is God: it is he that hath made us, and not we ourselves; we are
his people, and the sheep of his pasture.
Enter into his gates with thanksgiving, and into his courts with
praise: be thankful unto him, and bless his name. For the LORD is good;
his mercy is everlasting; and his truth endureth to all generations."
