Spurgeon - Verse Expositions - Charles H. Spurgeon
Let the lying lips be put to silence, which speak grievous things proudly and contemptuously against the righteous. Oh how great is thy goodness which thou hast laid up for them that fear thee; Is not that a blessed expression to be used by the man who said that his life was spent with grief, and his years with sighing?
Spurgeon - Verse Expositions - Charles H. Spurgeon
Which thou hast wrought for them that trust in thee before the sons of men! Not only has the Lord abundant goodness stored up for his children, but his goodness is brought out for others to see, and for his people to feed upon even in the presence of their enemies.
Spurgeon - Verse Expositions - Charles H. Spurgeon
Which thou hast wrought for them that trust in thee before the sons of men! Thou shalt hide them in the secret of thy presence from the pride of man: thou shalt keep them secretly in a pavilion from the strife of tongues. What a blessing that is,— to be separated from the noise and strife and the malignant calumny of wicked men! God has a blessed...

Spurgeon - Verse Expositions - Charles H. Spurgeon
Thou shalt hide them in the secret of thy presence from the pride of man: thou shalt keep them secretly in a pavilion from the strife of tongues. They shall not be wounded by all the malice of their adversaries; they shall be preserved in the King’s royal pavilion.
Spurgeon - Verse Expositions - Charles H. Spurgeon
Thou shalt hide them in the secret of thy presence from the pride of man: thou shalt keep them secretly in a pavilion from the strife of tongues. There is nothing much worse than the strife of tongues. A pack of wolves would not be half so bad as a pack of tongues let loose upon a man. Wolves do but tear the flesh; but tongues devour a man’s...
Spurgeon - Verse Expositions - Charles H. Spurgeon
Blessed be the LORD: for he hath shewed me his marvellous kindness in a strong city. For I said in my haste, I am cut off from before thine eyes: nevertheless thou heardest the voice of my supplications when I cried unto thee.

Spurgeon - Verse Expositions - Charles H. Spurgeon
For I said in my haste, I am cut off from before thine eyes: nevertheless thou heardest the voice of my supplications when I cried unto thee. O love the LORD, all ye his saints; It seems as if David felt that he could not love the Lord sufficiently by himself, so he calls upon all the saints to bring their hearts full of love, and yield their...
Spurgeon - Verse Expositions - Charles H. Spurgeon
For the LORD preserveth the faithful, and plentifully rewardeth the proud doer. Be of good courage, and he shall strengthen your heart, all ye that hope in the LORD. In this Psalm, we have heard the wail of the sackbut, and the clashing of the cymbals; but we finish with the blast of the silver trumpets.

Spurgeon - Verse Expositions - Charles H. Spurgeon
Be of good courage, and he shall strengthen your heart, all ye that hope in the LORD. Your heart is faint, but the Lord will put strength where now there is weakness; wherefore “be of good courage.” Cowardice weakens, fear saps a man’s strength; so “be of good courage,” for your strength shall be equal to your day, and you shall yet win the...
Spurgeon - Verse Expositions - Charles H. Spurgeon
Blessed is he whose transgression is forgiven, whose sin is covered. I think I hear a sort of sigh of relief, as if the man had been burdened with a load of guilt, and now at last his sin is put away; and his sigh has more solemn joy in it than if it had been a song: “Blessed is he whose transgression is forgiven, whose sin is covered.” Beloved,...
Spurgeon - Verse Expositions - Charles H. Spurgeon
Blessed is he whose transgression is forgiven, whose sin is covered. Blessed would have been the man who never transgressed, who never sinned; but, be encouraged, O sinner, there is blessedness even for the likes of you! Blessed is he who, though he has transgressed, has had his transgression forgiven; — who, though he has sinned, and sinned...
Spurgeon - Verse Expositions - Charles H. Spurgeon
Blessed is he whose transgression is forgiven, whose sin is covered. The Lord can bless the man who is full of sin only when his sin is covered by the atonement — the propitiation — which hides his sin even from the sight of God; and he is a truly blessed man who, although he knows himself to be a sinner, also knows that his sin is forgiven and...

Spurgeon - Verse Expositions - Charles H. Spurgeon
Blessed is he whose transgression is forgiven, whose sin is covered. Blessed is the man unto whom the LORD imputeth not iniquity, and in whose spirit there is no guile. Twice he says “blessed.” He had felt the weight of sin; he had been sore troubled, and now that Nathan is sent to him with the word of pardon, “The Lord hath put away thy sin, thou...
Spurgeon - Verse Expositions - Charles H. Spurgeon
Blessed is he whose transgression is forgiven, whose sin is covered. This is not a blessing for the man who says he has no sin; this is not a benediction for the innocent, who talk about their own good works; but blessed is the man who, having sinned, is pardoned, whose transgression is forgiven, whose sin is covered: in a word, it is a gospel...
