Praying in the Holy Ghost


Praying in the Holy Ghost

‘Praying in the Holy Ghost.’ Jude 20

Suggested Further Reading: Romans 8:26–27

With such prayer it is an absolute certainty that I must succeed with God in prayer. 

If my prayer were my own prayer, I might not be so sure of it, but if the prayer which I utter be God’s own prayer written on my soul, God is always one with himself, and what he writes on the heart is only written there because it is written in his purposes. 

It is said by an old divine that prayer is the shadow of omnipotence. Our will, when God the Holy Spirit influences it, is the indicator of God’s will. 

When God’s people pray, it is because the blessing is coming, and their prayers are the shadow of the coming blessing. 

Rest assured of this, brethren, God never did belie himself; he never contradicted in one place what he said in another. 

You and I may contradict ourselves, not only through untruthfulness, but even through infirmity; we may not be able to stand to our word, and we may forget what we did say, and so in another place we may say something that contradicts it, but God is neither infirm as to memory, nor yet changeable as to will; what he promised yesterday he fulfils today, and what he has said in one place, he declares in another. 

Then if God says in my heart, ‘Pray for So-and-so,’ it is because he has said it in the book of his decrees. 

The Spirit of God’s writing in the heart always tallies with the writing of destiny in the book of God’s eternal purpose.

 Rest assured that you cannot but succeed when you have laid your soul like a sheet of paper before the Lord, and asked him to write upon it; then it is no more your own prayer merely, but the Spirit making intercession in you according to the will of God.

For meditation:

 We cannot guarantee at any given time that we are praying in the Spirit, but we will be heading in the right direction if we pray in faith
 (Matthew 21:22), in Jesus’ name (John 14:13–14; 16:24) and according to God’s revealed will
 (1 John 5:14–15), while being in a state of fellowship with Christ (John 15:7) and obedience to God (1 John 3:22).

The voice of one crying in the wilderness



"The voice of one crying in the wilderness, 
Prepare ye the way of the Lord, make his paths straight."
Luke 3:4.


The voice crying in the wilderness demanded a way for the Lord, a way prepared, and a way prepared in the wilderness.

 I would be attentive to the Master's proclamation, and give Him a road into my heart, cast up by gracious operations, through the desert of my nature. The four directions in the text must have my serious attention.

Every valley must be exalted. Low and grovelling thoughts of God must be given up; doubting and despairing must be removed; and self-seeking and carnal delights must be forsaken. Across these deep valleys a glorious causeway of grace must be raised.

Every mountain and hill shall be laid low. Proud creature-sufficiency, and boastful self-righteousness, must be levelled, to make a highway for the King of kings. Divine fellowship is never vouchsafed to haughty, highminded sinners. The Lord hath respect unto the lowly, and visits the contrite in heart, but the lofty are an abomination unto Him. My soul, beseech the Holy Spirit to set thee right in this respect.

The crooked shall be made straight. The wavering heart must have a straight path of decision for God and holiness marked out for it. Double-minded men are strangers to the God of truth. My soul, take heed that thou be in all things honest and true, as in the sight of the heart-searching God.

The rough places shall be made smooth. Stumbling-blocks of sin must be removed, and thorns and briers of rebellion must be uprooted. So great a visitor must not find miry ways and stony places when He comes to honour His favoured ones with His company. 

Oh that this evening the Lord may find in my heart a highway made ready by His grace, that He may make a triumphal progress through the utmost bounds of my soul, from the beginning of this year even to the end of it.

The ship on fire—a voice of warning


The ship on fire—a voice of warning

‘Escape for thy life; … Thou hast magnified thy mercy, which thou hast shewed unto me in saving my life.’ Genesis 19:17,19

Suggested Further Reading: Luke 17:28–33

This alarm demands of every one of us who are unsaved, an undivided attention. You have fifty things to think about. You tell me you have a thousand cares. 

O sirs, a man whose life is in danger, has no other care than to save his life.

 Did those who were rescued from the ‘Amazon’ have time to save their money and their gold? We are told that they were utterly destitute when they landed at Margate, and what does it matter? Would not a flush of joy be on their cheeks because their lives were preserved? If one said to his fellow, ‘Where is your purse?’ ‘Oh,’ would say the other, ‘never mind my purse; I am in the lifeboat; my life is saved.’ 

And what is the loss after all, if you lose the world and gain your soul? Those on board the ship had not time to save their clothes. 

They ran just as they were, half-naked, to the vessel’s deck, and so must you. 

I know you will tell me you are not living to make money; if you could just make ends meet, keep your family—that is all—are you not to think of this? It is well and good; far be it from me to discourage prudent carefulness in all matters; it is your business to see to temporal matters, but still your paramount business must be your soul; even necessaries must not come between your soul and your most serious thoughts. 

You must see to this first and foremost, and remember there is a promise about it—‘Seek ye first the kingdom of God, and his righteousness; and all these things shall be added unto you.’

For meditation: 

We are horrified by fires on earth; how much more should we dread the everlasting fires of hell (Isaiah 33:14). It’s far better to have Christ and lose out on earth than to end up in hell without Christ (Mark 9:43–48).

N.B. This sermon was preached following the burning of the ship Amazon off Broadstairs on the Kent coast. All the passengers and crew were saved. The captain was in Spurgeon’s congregation on this occasion as was his custom when on shore.
