King David, near the end of his life, reflects on his troubles at home and admits his family is not fully living for God. Yet, he takes comfort in God’s unchanging promise—an everlasting covenant that gives him security and hope beyond his failures. This truth fills David with peace and satisfaction, knowing that God’s promise is his salvation and his greatest desire.

A sermon delivered by Charles Spurgeon on April 15, 1855.

Spurgeon invites Christians to “come and see” Jesus’ tomb, not as a dark, fearful place, but as a quiet, holy spot filled with meaning. The empty grave shows Christ’s victory over death, our full forgiveness, and the promise that believers will also rise like Him. Visiting the tomb in our hearts should stir both sorrow for our sin and joy that our Savior lives forever.

Joseph was hated by his brothers, tempted by sin, and falsely accused, yet he stayed faithful to God through it all. His strength didn’t come from himself, but from God’s own hand giving him courage and endurance. Joseph’s story points us to Jesus, who also suffered greatly but became the Shepherd and Rock who saves His people.

A sermon delivered by Charles Spurgeon on April 1, 1855.

This sermon reflects on the dramatic conversion of Saul of Tarsus, once the fiercest persecutor of Christians, now transformed by God’s power into a humble man of prayer. He emphasizes that Saul’s first true prayer marked both the evidence of his new life in Christ and the joy of heaven over a sinner’s repentance. The sermon calls believers to see prayer as the surest sign of genuine faith and urges the unconverted to seek God earnestly before it is too late.

God Himself is the author of the Bible, and every word in it comes from His hand with divine authority, truth, and mercy. Scripture deals only with great and eternal matters—our ruin in sin, redemption through Christ, and the need for regeneration by the Spirit. Yet tragically, many treat the Bible as a strange or neglected book, when it is in fact the very Word of life that must be read, trusted, and obeyed.

A sermon delivered by Charles Spurgeon on March 18, 1855.

Christians are called into a lifelong battle against the world’s temptations, customs, persecutions, and even its flattery, yet they are promised certain victory. This triumph comes not by human strength but by being “born of God” and living in the power of faith, which clings to Christ and resists both the world’s threats and its charms. Faith fixes its hope on God’s promises, making the believer steadfast, courageous, and ultimately victorious over sin and the world.

A sermon delivered by Charles Spurgeon on March 18, 1855.

Christians should expect suffering in this world, because trials are part of following Christ, but they are never meaningless. These sufferings are joined to Christ’s own, and in the same measure that trials increase, God also provides comfort and strength through Christ. Therefore, believers can rejoice even in hardship, knowing that their consolation comes directly from the Holy Spirit, who is with them always. 

A sermon delivered by Charles Spurgeon on March 11, 1855.

This sermon teaches that sleep is more than physical rest—it is a precious gift from God to His beloved. Spurgeon explains different kinds of “sleep” God gives His children: the sleep of a quiet conscience, of contentment, of trust in the future, of security in His care, and finally the peaceful “sleep” of death in Christ. True rest comes not from wealth, ambition, or comfort, but from knowing God through Jesus Christ, who alone gives His people peace now and forever.

A sermon delivered by Charles Spurgeon on March 4, 1855.

This sermon reminds us that Jesus Christ was not born into wealth or royalty, but came as one of the people. Just like David, He was chosen by God to lead and serve, showing that humility and humanity are not barriers to greatness but proof of God’s wisdom. Jesus is our Brother, Savior, and King—both fully God and fully Man—who understands our struggles, shares in our humanity, and is exalted to reign forever. 

A sermon delivered by Charles Spurgeon on February 25, 1855.

Spurgeon teaches that all honor belongs to Jesus, who has made His people into kings and priests. As priests, believers can come to God directly and serve Him, and as kings, they can overcome sin and will one day reign with Christ. Our great hope is that because of Christ, we are forgiven, set free, and promised a future of glory with Him.
