Charles Spurgeon (Author)

Book Description

Publication Date: December 1984

Using illustrations drawn from everyday examples, Charles Spurgeon provides uplifting devotions for each day of the year in Evening by Evening. A marvelous orator and compelling writer, Spurgeon weaves the truth of God's Work with his own effective illustrations into inspiring devotions for each day of the year. A Scripture reference and thought-provoking commentary are provided in each devotion to help the reader end each day in God's presence.

Throughout this year-long journey, these classic devotions urge readers to reflect on their lives, find comfort in Scripture, and deepen their relationship with God. In one of the daily readings, Spurgeon encourages intercessory prayer because prayer for others is the "sweetest God ever hears." Spurgeon gently persuades the reader to see the goodness and compassion of God, to seek Christ in every area of life, and rest in the promises of a faithful God. Written over a century ago, generations have already cherished this classic collection of daily wisdom, which will endure for generations to come. At the end of a busy day, meditate on the scripture and allow Spurgeon's inspiring messages to draw you closer to God.

5.0 out of 5 stars Discerning Wisdom - Faultlessly Divine, March 13, 2009

This review is from: Evening by Evening (Pure Gold Classic) (Pure Gold Classics) (Paperback)

There are few devotionals, which capture the essence of depth and truth, using a single verse a day. As you read, you can see why F.B. Meyer stated, "I went to hear Dr. Surgeon but instead I heard the voice of God". Spurgeon writes from his own experiences and insights received from the hand of God. An example of this, is the March 10th devotional. Spurgeon highlights Job 14:1, which states,"Man...is of few days, and full of trouble. Charles Spurgeon writes, "If we would remember that all the trees of the earth are marked for the woodsman's ax, we would not be so ready to build our nests in them". He goes on to say, "There is a time appointed for weakness and sickness when we will have to glorify God by our suffering and not by earnest activity". Through out this devotional are "precious pearls of wisdom" to ponder, as we grow in the "wisdom and knowledge of God." I highly recommend Evening by Evening, for it's inspirational encouragement as we journey, day to day, through the struggles and troubles of living in a fallen world which groans and is in bondage to corruption and sin.

This book is truly inspiring. I orginally purchased "Evening by Evening" to make sure that I would meditate on God's word before I went to bed. But It has become a great inspiration to me. I look forward to reading "Evening by Evening" each night before I go to bed. Mr.Charles Spurgeon had a great passion for God and Christ and he generously displays it through out his daily devotions. He continually encourages the believer to taste of God's great goodness in His Son Jesus Christ. I recommend it to anyone who wants to taste of His passion for God and Christ and also to anyone who is fanning their flame, fallen, tripped up or needs to return to their first love, this book is a heartfelt read.
