Prayer and Faith

(Charles SpurgeonLISTEN to Audio!  Download Audio

Open my eyes, that I may behold wondrous things out of Your law!” Psalm 119:18

Let me tell you a little secret: whenever you cannot understand a text, open your Bible, bend your knee, and pray over that text, If it does not split into atoms and open itself, then try again. If prayer does not explain it, then it is one of those things that God did not intend you to know at present. Therefore You may be content to be ignorant of it.

Prayer is the key that opens the cabinets of mystery. Prayer and faith are sacred picklocks that can open secrets, and obtain great treasures! There is no college for holy education like that of the blessed Spirit. Because He is an ever-present tutor, to whom we have only to bend the knee, and He is at our side–the great Expositor of truth!Prayer and Faith

You will frequently find fresh streams of thought leaping up from the passage before you, as if the rock had been struck by Moses’ rod! New veins of precious ore will be revealed to your astonished gaze as you quarry God’s Word and use diligently the hammer of prayer!

“But when He, the Spirit of truth, comes–He will guide you into all truth!” John 16:13
