    James Smith (1802-1862) as a young child fell into a well and was remarkably rescued from death. His passion as a preacher of the gospel was to rescue “many poor ungodly sinners from a far deeper well.” He pastored several Particular Baptist congregations, including the New Park Street Chapel (1842-1850), where years later C. H. Spurgeon took the pastorate. His succinct devotional style is fresh and memorable.

9. Devotional: Waiting on Him

Devotional: Waiting on Him

Author: David Wilkerson (1931-2011)

    The prophet Samuel's command to King Saul was “Go to Gilgal and wait… I will come, and God will give you directions” (see 1 Samuel 10:8). 

    Saul’s only responsibility was to wait! God wanted to hear Saul say, “God keeps his word. Never once has a word from Samuel's lips fallen to the ground. God said I should wait for directions, and I will wait.”

    However, human pride often reasons, “God must not have meant it. Maybe I heard it wrong.” Instead of standing on God's word, we start trying to figure out things on our own. Lying in bed in the late hours, we say, “Lord, here's how I see it can be done.” It is wicked to do something very logical and reasonable when it is not God's clear word of direction. If you want to prove anything to God, prove you will patiently wait for him to act.

    “And Samuel said, ‘What have you done?’ Saul said, ‘When I saw that the people were scattered from me, and that you did not come within the days appointed…. Therefore I felt compelled, and offered a burnt offering.’ And Samuel said to Saul, ‘You have done foolishly. You have not kept the commandment of the Lord your God, which he commanded you…. But now your kingdom shall not continue. The Lord has sought for himself a man after his own heart, and the Lord has commanded him to be commander over his people, because you have not kept what the Lord commanded you.’” (1 Samuel 13:11-14, NKJV).

    Saul waited seven days, but that wait was unholy. He was impatient, angry, fearful, and pouting. We must wait with faith, believing that God cares for us and loves us, that he will be there on his time. This matter of waiting is so important that I must show you some scriptures to prove it.

    “And it will be said in that day: ‘Behold, this is our God; we have waited for him, and he will save us. This is the Lord; we have waited for him; we will be glad and rejoice in his salvation.’” (Isaiah 25:9).

    “For since the beginning of the world men have not heard nor perceived by the ear, nor has the eye seen any God besides you, who acts for the one who waits for him” (Isaiah 64:4).

    Dear believer, let us wait patiently and in full faith for God to move!

6. Devotional: Troubled? Try Praise!

Devotional: Troubled? Try Praise!

Author: Charles F. Stanley (1932-2023)

Through praise, we escape the oppressive emotions 

that often accompany hardship.

    Hardship is often accompanied by negative emotions such as fear, frustration, despair, and doubt. People ruled by these feelings are more likely to make poor choices. So it’s important to decide now to respond to adversity as the psalmist did—with a heart of praise.

    Even in the darkest hours, worship fills the heart with joy and the mind with peace. It also enlarges our vision so we begin to discern how the Lord is at work in the world, perhaps in ways we haven’t noticed before. We see what He’s doing in our life and detect areas where obedience is required.

    Our tendency is to plot a course through a situation toward the easiest solution. But believers who handle things on their own do not mature in their faith. They miss out on the blessings of following the Lord’s plan. Stopping to praise Him protects us and directs us to the right path—namely, the way of God’s will. Moving forward in faith can be frightening. However, we can confidently take a risk, knowing our omniscient, omnipotent God has His children’s best interest in mind (Jeremiah 29:11).

    It’s hard to despair while honoring God. We can dispel doubt by recalling His past faithfulness to us and ease frustration by committing our future to Him. Praise is not the obvious reaction to hardship, but it is the wisest response.

1. Devotional: A Very Present Help in Trouble

Devotional: A Very Present Help in Trouble

Author: James Smith (1802-1862)

A very present help in trouble. (Psalm 46:1)

    Religion is never so valuable as in seasons of trouble, sickness, or death. Then we want something which nature cannot supply; and this something true religion presents. Our God is our help in trouble. He helps us to bear it. He helps us to improve it. He helps us through it. His choicest communications and sweetest manifestations are afforded in times of trial and distress. Believer, your God is your refuge and strength, a very present help in trouble. He is never nearer than when you fancy that he stands afar off; he is never kinder than when you think he has shut up his lovingkindness in displeasure. Do not doubt his love. Do not mistake his dealings. Do not listen to his foe. Do not forget his word. But remember, if trouble comes, grace comes with it; and your God is present to help you to rise above it, and to derive solid advantage from it. Believe, when you cannot see. Trust, when you do not feel. Wait, when you do not receive a message from God. Your good is consulted in every trouble, and your God will be glorified by every trial. The Lord of hosts is with you; the God of Jacob is your refuge. Therefore fear not, neither be dismayed.

Jehovah, thy refuge and rock,
In trouble, his help shall supply;
Though earth be removed with a shock,
Still God, the Redeemer, is nigh.

27. Devotional: Kept by the Power of God

Devotional: Kept by the Power of God

Author: James Smith (1802-1862)

Kept by the power of God. (1 Pet. 1:5)

    All the Lord’s people feel that they need keeping, and therefore they pray to be kept. But it is not enough that we pray for keeping, we must believe the promises, expect their fulfilment, and seek for divine keeping in faith. The power of God is exerted on our behalf through faith. Believing we grasp the promise, keep near the throne, walk with God, and are kept in dangers and death. Unbelief departs from God, questions the promise, wanders from the throne, and we fall into folly and sin. “Take heed, therefore, lest there be in any of you an evil heart of unbelief, in departing from the living God. But exhort one another daily, while it is called TODAY; lest any hardened through the deceitfulness of sin.” God will not keep you as brutes, but as rational beings; he will not hold you in with bit and bridle, as the driver does the horse or mule, but he will lead you as beloved children, and keep you as intelligent disciples. His power is pledged to you. But it is only pledged to believers. It is only pledged to believers as exercising faith, hope, and prayer.

See the power of God to save!
Jesu’s grace in me admire,
Kept, like Peter, on the wave,
Kept like Shadrach, in the fire:
Rescued from the Lion’s teeth,
Safe within the jaws of death!

23. Devotional: The Lord is Thy Keeper

Devotional: The Lord is Thy Keeper

Author: James Smith (1802-1862)

The Lord is thy keeper. (Ps. 121:5)

    THE Lord's people are the objects of his constant care. They feel that they cannot keep themselves. They realize that they are exposed to many foes and dangers. They frequently put themselves into his hands for protection. They daily call upon him to be their keeper and guide. And they busily employ themselves in obeying his commands, and doing his will. The Lord is engaged to keep all such, and he is an omnipotent keeper. He will keep them at all times, and in all places. But he will especially keep them in times of peculiar danger, in seasons of heavy trouble, and in the midst of many fears. He will not keep them from trouble, but he will keep them from sinking under it. He will not keep them from being exercised with inward corruption, but he will keep them from being overcome by it. He will not keep them from temptations to apostacy and other sins, but he will keep them from going back into the world. In keeping them, he will employ his mighty angels, his special providence, his sacred word, and the operation of his Holy Spirit. He will keep them because he loves them, and because he can glorify himself by doing so.

Jesus is my sure defence. 
I all his care shall prove, 
Kept by his watchful providence,
And ever-waking love.
