Psalms 94:22

Spurgeon - Verse Expositions - Charles H. Spurgeon

But the LORD is my defence; and my God is the rock of my refuge. I commend these expressions to all believers, let them treasure them up. “My God.” Ah, you must personally appropriate God to yourself if he is to bless you! Another man’s God is nothing to you unless you can also say, “My God.” When you have said, “My God,” you have uttered the...

Psalms 94:23

Spurgeon - Verse Expositions - Charles H. Spurgeon

And he shall bring upon them their own iniquity, That is the punishment of sin. It seems strange that it is so, but sin is the punishment of sin. When a man has once sinned, it is part of his punishment that he is inclined to sin again, and so on ad infinitum. “He shall bring upon them their own iniquity.” Psa_94:23. And shall cut them off in...

Psalms 95:1

Spurgeon - Verse Expositions - Charles H. Spurgeon

O come, let us sing unto the LORD: let us make a joyful noise to the rock of our salvation. The worship of God should always be joyful, hence there is to be much singing in it. God is not like Baal, who can be worshipped with crying and lamentation, and the cutting of the flesh with knives. We who believe in him regard him not as the destroyer or...

Psalms 95:1-2

Spurgeon - Verse Expositions - Charles H. Spurgeon

O come, let us sing unto the LORD: let us make a joyful noise to the rock of our salvation. Let us come before his presence with thanksgiving, and make a joyful noise unto him with psalms. There must be, there should be, joy in our worship, it is the very juice, the wine that floweth from the trodden grape. It is the cream of the soul when the...

Psalms 95:2

Spurgeon - Verse Expositions - Charles H. Spurgeon

Let us come before his presence with thanksgiving, Let us not be afraid to stand in the immediate presence of God; on the other hand, let us not worship him with lightness and frivolity, but let us come before his presence with due reverence and solemnity; and when we come, let it be “with thanksgiving.” I need not remind you what innumerable...

Psalms 95:3

Spurgeon - Verse Expositions - Charles H. Spurgeon

For the LORD is a great God, and a great king above all gods. “For the Lord is a great God.” Jehovah is a great God, “and a great King above all gods,” above all that are ever called gods, whether they be kings or magistrates, or whatever they may be.

Psalms 95:4

Spurgeon - Verse Expositions - Charles H. Spurgeon

In his hand are the deep places of the earth: The innermost caverns, the deepest mines of earth, and the far-down places in the depths of the ocean, these are all in God’s hand. Psa_95:4. The strength of the hills is his also. He is the God of the hills as well as the God of the valleys. Let us read this verse again. “In his hand are the deep...

Psalms 95:5

Spurgeon - Verse Expositions - Charles H. Spurgeon

The sea is his, and he made it: Men cannot parcel it out into estates, or cut it up into allotments, as they do with the solid earth; but “the sea is his;” there God reigns alone, and surveys the broad acres of the wild waste of waters as his own. Psa_95:5. And his hands formed the dry land. As though it were so much plastic clay, out of which he...

Psalms 95:6-7

Spurgeon - Verse Expositions - Charles H. Spurgeon

O come, let us worship and bow down: let us kneel before the LORD our maker. For he is our God; and we are the people of his pasture, and the sheep of his hand. Blessed are we if we can say this in very truth, we are highly privileged to have this God to be our God, and to be ourselves his purchased inheritance, the objects of his daily care: “the...

Psalms 95:6-7

Spurgeon - Verse Expositions - Charles H. Spurgeon

O come, let us worship and bow down: let us kneel before the LORD our maker. For he is our God; “For he is our God.” Oh, that is the sweetest of it all, — “he is our God.” Let lords and lands have what masters they will, let us obey and worship our own God still.

Psalms 95:7-10

Spurgeon - Verse Expositions - Charles H. Spurgeon

To day if ye will hear his voice, harden not your heart, as in the provocation, and as in the day of temptation in the wilderness: when your fathers tempted me, proved me, and saw my work. Forty years long was I grieved with this generation. Was not that enough? Is there any need to grieve him again. Think with sympathy of what God endured from...

Psalms 95:8-11

Spurgeon - Verse Expositions - Charles H. Spurgeon

As in the provocation, and as in the day of temptation in the wilderness: when your fathers tempted me, proved me, and saw my work. Forty years long was I grieved with this generation, and said, It is a people that do err in their heart, and they have not known my ways: unto whom I sware in my wrath that they should not enter into my rest. They...

Psalms 95:10

Spurgeon - Verse Expositions - Charles H. Spurgeon

And said, It is a people that do err in their heart, Not merely through ignorance, but “in their heart.” They were not alone with their feet and their tongue, but in their hearts. Psa_95:10. And they have not known my ways: They have seen them but not understood them. He says, “They saw my work,” but you may see and yet not know, for what is...
