Psalms 84:10

Spurgeon - Verse Expositions - Charles H. Spurgeon

Read in KJV Bible Reader

Psalms 84:10. For a day in thy courts is better than a thousand.

That is, better than a thousand days spent anywhere else. Feasting and rioting with the ungodly are not worthy to be compared with feasting and praising in the courts of God’s house.

Psalms 84:10. I had rather be a doorkeeper in the house of my God, than to dwell in the tents of wickedness.

I hope many of us can say, again with Dr. Watts,-"

Might I enjoy the meanest place

Within thy house, O God of grace !

Not tents of ease, nor thrones of power,

Should tempt my feet to leave thy door."
