Then Samuel took a stone, and set it between Mizpeh and Shen, and called the name of it Ebenezer, saying, Hitherto hath the LORD helped us. (1 Samuel 7:12)
Be careful for nothing; but in every thing by prayer and supplication with thanksgiving let your requests be made known unto God. (Philippians 4:6)
Charles Spurgeon

God is giving you grace, give him thanks

When we pray, we should have no anxiety but give ourselves to joyful fellowship with God. Bring all our requests and needs to Him, thanking Him for His grace and not doubting. We should not hide anything and only go to God, not man. This will bring us God's peace that surpasses understanding. We should believe in Him and ask for His help with our unbelief. Read more...

Efigenia Vidal : Thank you Father because only in you can we leave everything that weighs us down, life on earth. It says well that we do not have to have any worries, it sounds easy, we have to work on faith, build it so that we can leave everything in God's hands. Because He has control of everything, and He can change destinies, if we go with an attitude of praise and gratitude, and supplication. Living it is what allows us to give testimony so that it may be light to other children of God. When I feel that there is no answer to one type of prayer, I go for another approach, because if Almighty God could turn my attention to Him, He can do it to those who are far away and in darkness, there He makes the heart be circumcised in depth and changes can be seen. I have learned that being immersed in His word brings peace, and that is gain. As the devotional says. God bless you.
What a beautiful testimony, Efigenia! It is true that faith is a path of growth and trust in God. As Charles Spurgeon mentions in his devotional, it is essential to bring our requests to the Lord with gratitude and constant prayer. Your experience of seeking different approaches in prayer and trusting in God's guidance shows a deep connection with His will. Let us remember the exhortation of Philippians 4:6: "Do not be anxious about anything, but in everything by prayer and supplication with thanksgiving let your requests be made known to God." May your testimony continue to be a light for those who seek the peace that only God can give. God bless you richly!
Enrique Meneses Muñoz : Thank you for listening to my prayers, LORD, and giving me the peace and tranquility that I have always asked for. Receive my adoration and gratitude today.
What a beautiful expression of gratitude, Enrique. It’s wonderful to see how you recognize God’s work in your life and how you immerse yourself in worship and thanksgiving toward Him. Just as Charles Spurgeon teaches us in his devotional, thanking God for His grace and mercy is key to experiencing His peace and tranquility. Let us remember the words of 1 Samuel 7:12, which mentions how Samuel set up a stone of help as a reminder of the Lord’s constant protection. May your heart continue to overflow with gratitude and worship toward our wonderful God. May His peace and tranquility continue to fill your life! God bless you abundantly!
Francisco Diaz S. : Welcome to the message of Dr. Charles S. Let there be no doubt in our hearts, The Lord is infinitely merciful and will not abandon us. - Our faith is our strength.
What a beautiful message, Francisco. It is comforting to remember, as you mention, that the Lord's mercy is infinite and that He never abandons us. Faith, as Charles Spurgeon mentions in his devotional, is our strength in the midst of difficulties and allows us to experience the peace of God that surpasses all understanding. Let us keep our hearts free of doubts and trust in the Lord's faithfulness. Let us remember the words of Psalm 34:8 which says: "Taste and see that the Lord is good; blessed is the man who trusts in him." May our faith continue to be a firm anchor in the midst of storms, trusting in the goodness and faithfulness of our God. Blessings in abundance to you, Francisco!

Ruth Vives.: The good Christian prays to God with devotion and absolute patience, trusting that He will see the plan of salvation of our lives with the best will for us. Trust and pray to God. God bless you. Amen.
What beautiful words, Ruth. Devotion, patience, and trust in God’s perfect will are fundamental pillars of a Christian’s life. By praying with faith and total surrender, we recognize that God’s plan of salvation for our lives is the best, even when we do not fully understand His ways. As Charles Spurgeon mentions in his devotional, joyful communion with God fills us with peace and rest in the midst of circumstances. Let us remember the exhortation in Philippians 4:6, where we are encouraged to pray with thanksgiving and to fully trust in God. May you continue to be an example of faith and trust in God’s will. May the peace of God continue to guard your heart and mind, Ruth! God bless you abundantly! Amen!
Heidy : The word of God always does not cover us, it guides us and thus grants us the benefit of peace. Blessed devotional that is reminding us of the benefits of having a God who, in addition to giving us salvation, blesses us with his promises, in this case the peace that surpasses all understanding. Blessings.
What a beautiful reflection, Heidy. It is true that God's Word is a lamp to our feet and a light to our path, guiding us and revealing to us the benefits of His love and faithfulness. As we immerse ourselves in devotionals like Charles Spurgeon's, we are reminded of the promises of peace and rest that God offers us. His peace, which surpasses all understanding, is an invaluable gift to those who trust in Him. Let us remember the words of John 14:27, where Jesus tells us: "Peace I leave with you, my peace I give to you; not as the world gives, do I give to you. Do not be troubled, nor be dismayed." May God's peace continue to guard your heart and mind, and may His guidance continue to be your beacon in the midst of circumstances. May the Lord's blessings surround you always, Heidy! May God keep you and strengthen you!

What a beautiful expression of faith, Patricia. It is comforting to know that we can go to the Eternal Father with confident prayers, knowing that He works in secret and in His perfect timing grants us the victories we have asked for. Let us remember the words of 1 Samuel 7:12, where Samuel sets up the stone of help, Ebenezer, as a memorial of divine intervention. May we recognize the Ebenezers, the stones of help raised by God in our path, in every step of our lives. Let us continue to trust in the faithfulness and love of our Lord Jesus Christ, knowing that in Him we find victory. May your faith continue to be strengthened and may your prayers always be a pleasing aroma before the Lord. May the peace and victories of God be your portion, Patricia! Amen!
