DEVOTION for February 15th *A,D, 2026. Written and calendared for this exact date by Charles Haddon Spurgeon 1834-1892.

*A.D. Does NOT mean After Death as is commonly believed. It is a Latin abbreviation
for anno Domani (It means “Year of our Lord”.
BC/AD versus BCE/CE There a difference.​
Stand for the Truth, Won’t you?
The Lord Jesus Christ [Messiah and Anointed King, The LORD GOD] was born of a virgin 2026 years ago. HE was crucified, and then after three days rose from the dead, victorious over sin, death and the grave and is here in the flesh from GOD. The Church is The Body of ChristHis Bride, who lives forever, time without end. He, Himself, The WORD Made-Flesh is coming again.

Saint Valentine
The Legend of Saint Valentine
The most enduring accounts describe a Roman priest named Valentinus who lived during the reign of Emperor Claudius II (c. 270 AD).
-
Secret Marriages: Legend says Claudius banned marriage for young men, believing that single men made superior soldiers. Valentine defied this decree, performing secret Christian weddings to protect the sanctity of marriage.
-
The "First" Valentine: While imprisoned for his defiance, he reportedly befriended (and in some versions, fell in love with) his jailer’s blind daughter. He is said to have miraculously restored her sight before his execution on February 14.
-
The Signature: On the day of his death, he allegedly wrote her a farewell note signed, "From your Valentine," a phrase still used today.
Historical Origins and Evolution
-
Multiple Valentines: The Catholic Church recognizes at least three distinct saints named Valentine or Valentinus who were martyred on February 14. Because their historical details overlap—both often involve beheadings on the Via Flaminia—some scholars believe they may be the same person.
-
Happy Saint Valentine’s Day Here’s the true story?
-
Take care that the deeper essence of Valentine’s story of preemptory and unconditional forgiveness is not over shadowed by the account of Valentine and his love for the Jailer’s blind daughter. Although much is made of the farewell note he wrote to her assuring her of his undying love and devotion in which he concluded with the words “…your Valentine.” His unconditional act of forgiveness toward those who had so unmercifully and shamefully treated him is documented together with God’s miracle of sight to the Jailer’s blind daughter.
-
[His prayer for her sight was freely given and was acknowledged, later, in the proclamation of his Sainthood].
The Indestructible [Immutable] Book [BIBLE]
By Dr. David Brown
The 1769 Edition of The King James Bible is Divinely Inspired, Inerrant, Infallible, Providentially Preserved and Protected. It is the God-Breathed Eternal WORDS of GOD almighty. GOD is Omni-Lingual, Omnipotent, Omniscient, Immutable, All Wise, Omnipresent, Eternal and Supremely Holy. He is the Triune Three-in-One GOD.
________________________________
1 John 5:7 Is the fundamental doctrinal scripture and essential tenet of the Trinity. The Triune [Three-in-One] GOD in-Three Persons (This verse has been Changed to severely diminish its authority and to diminish the Person of the Lord Jesus Christ or it has been Removed entirely in Modern Critical Text translations by apostates in an attempt to protect False Doctrines that give rise to all manner of Heretical Cults.
Jesus proclaims in John 10:30: 30 I and my Father are one.
Hence, The incarnate Jesus and His Father are ONE.)
7 For there are three that bear record in heaven, the Father, the Word, and the Holy Ghost: and these three are one. 8 And there are three that bear witness in earth, the Spirit, and the water, and the blood: and these three agree in one. 9 If we receive the witness of men, the witness of God is greater: for this is the witness of God which he hath testified of his Son.
GOD is “I AM” and Jesus Christ is The WORD made Flesh, GOD’s WORD is infinite and endures FOREVER, from Eternity Past through Eternity Future, Eternity’s never-ending Future.

8 Selected verses taken from Acts (6:5 to 7:60) The First Martyr Stephen Recorded in The Bible:
And the saying pleased the whole multitude: and they chose Stephen, a man full of faith and of the Holy Ghost, and Philip, and Prochorus, and Nicanor, and Timon, and Parmenas, and Nicolas a proselyte of Antioch:
And Stephen, full of faith and power, did great wonders and miracles among the people.
Then there arose certain of the synagogue, which is called the synagogue of the Libertines, and Cyrenians, and Alexandrians, and of them of Cilicia and of Asia, disputing with Stephen.
And they stoned Stephen, [as he was] calling upon God, and saying, Lord Jesus, receive my spirit.
And devout men carried Stephen to his burial, and made great lamentation [grieved] over him.
Now they which were scattered abroad upon the persecution that arose about Stephen travelled as far as Phenice, and Cyprus, and Antioch, preaching the word to none but unto the Jews only.
and when the blood of thy martyr Stephen was shed, I , [The Apostle Paul] also was standing by, and consenting unto his death, and kept the raiment [clothes] of them that slew him.
8. Acts 7:60
Authorized (King James) Version
60 And he [Stephen] kneeled down, and cried with a loud voice,
Lord, lay not this sin to their charge [forgive them for they know not what they do]
And when he had said this, he fell asleep [died]

PRAYER 8, Part 7 of 7 February 15th A PRAYER FOR HOLINESS.
We will offer but one more prayer, and it is this. Lord. Look in pity upon any who are not in Christ.
May they be converted [saved].
May they pass from death to life, and they will never forget it; may they see the eternal light for the first time, and they will remember it even in Eternity. Father help us; bless us now for Jesu’s [Jesus’] sake Amen.
[In the name of the Lord Jesus] Amen.

ANECDOTE 198: February 15th PIONEERS OF FAITH.
I greatly esteem in my own mind those first believers who were not borne [carried] in by the throng [dense crowd] of others, but went forward alone. I compare them to the first navigators upon an untried [uncharted] sea; the men who first sailed out of sight of shore, greatly venturing.
To be first in perceiving that Jesus of Nazareth was the Anointed of the Lord was no mean [ordinary] thing, for none of the princes of this world had any idea of that great fact.
These were in truth the “men of light and leading,”
the foremost minds of their age, peasants and fishermen tho [sic] [though] they were. These were the first swallows heralding a glorious summer-tide [summertime]. These were the first song-birds waking the morning to behold the newly risen sun. It is a pageant of nobility to be numbered with these.

FAITH’S CHECKBOOK February 15th EVER MINDFUL
-The Lord hath been mindful of us: he will bless us —Psalm 115:12
-Jehova se acordo de nosotros: nos bendecira- Salmos 115:12
I can set my seal to [completely agree with] that first sentence. Cannot you [Can’t you]?
Yes, Jehovah has thought of us, provided for us, comforted us, delivered us, and guided us. In all the movements of His providence He has been mindful of us, never overlooking our mean [ordinary] affairs. His mind has been full of us — that is the other form of the word “mindful.” This has been the case all along, and without a single break [lapse].
At special times, however, we have more distinctly seen this mindfulness, and we would recall them at this hour with overflowing gratitude. Yes, yes,
— the Lord hath been mindful of us. —
The next sentence is a logical inference from the former one. Since God is unchangeable, He will continue to be mindful of us in the future as He has been in the past; and His mindfulness is tantamount; [equivalent] to blessing us. But we have here, not only the conclusion of reason but the declaration of inspiration: we have it on the Holy Ghost’s authority
-HE WILL BLESS US.-
This means great things and unsearchable [incomprehensible]. The very indistinctness of the promise indicates its infinite reach. He will bless us after His own divine manner, and that, for ever and ever. Therefore, let us each say,
-Bless the Lord, O my soul!- Sing it, Won’t you?
URL:
Prayer: Thank you Lord that You have been mindful of all of us and therefore, You will bless us all [Your redeemed]. Help us to rest in Your [Blessed] assurance in Jesus name, Amen.

MORNING February 15th "TO HIM [JESUS CHRIST] BE GLORY BOTH NOW AND FOREVER." —2 Peter 3:18
─ A él sea gloria ahora y hasta el día de la eternidad. Amén. —2 Pedro 3:18
HEAVEN will be full of the ceaseless praises of Jesus. Eternity! It's unnumbered years shall speed their everlasting course, but forever and forever,
"to Him be glory."
Is He not a "Priest forever after the order of Melchisedek [The Priest-King to Abraham]"?
[Yes, He is.]
"To Him be glory."
Is He not king forever? [Yes, He is.]
King of kings and Lord of Lords, the everlasting Father? [Yes, He is.] "To Him be glory for ever." Never shall His praises cease [stop]. That which was bought with blood deserves to last while immortality endures [for all eternity].
The glory of the cross must never be eclipsed [covered up]; the luster of the grave and of the resurrection must never be dimmed. O Jesus! You will be praised for ever. As long as immortal spirits live, the Father's throne endures, for ever, for ever, to you shall be glory.
Believer, you are anticipating the time when you will join the saints above in ascribing all glory to Jesus, but are you glorifying Him now? The apostle's words are,
"To Him be glory both now and forever."
Will you not this day make your prayer:
"Lord, help me to glorify You. I am poor, help me to glorify You by contentment;
I am sick, help me to give you honor by patience.
I have talents, help me to extol You [reverence and respect You] by spending them for You; I have time, Lord, help me to redeem [make the best use of it] it, that I may serve You.
I have a heart to feel, Lord, let that heart feel no love but Yours, and glow with no flame but affection for You.
I have a head to think, Lord, help me to think of You and for You.
You have put me in this world for something, Lord; show me what that is, and help me to work out my life-purpose.
I cannot do much, but as the widow put in her two mites, which were all her living [all she had], so, Lord, I cast [throw] my time and eternity too into your treasury;
I am all Yours; [I’m all in.] take me, and enable me to glorify You now, in all that I say, in all that I do, and with all that I have."
King of Kings and Lord of Lords (Sing to Bless the Lord of Lords, won’t you?)

EVENING February 15th
"WHEREBY THEY HAVE MADE THEE GLAD. " —Psalm 45:8
En estancias de marfil te han recreado. —Salmos 45:8
Sing: He Has Made Me Glad
URL:
AND who are thus privileged to make the Savior glad? His church, His people. But is it possible?
He makes us glad, but how can we make Him glad?
By our love. We think it so cold, so faint; and so, indeed we must sorrowfully confess it to be, but it is very sweet to Christ. Hear His own eulogy of that love in the golden Canticle [O.T. Song of Solomon]:
"How fair is thy love, my sister, my spouse! How much better is thy love than wine!"
See how he delights in you. When you lean your head on His bosom, you not only receive, but you give Him joy; when you gaze [look] with love upon His all-glorious face, you not only obtain comfort, but impart [give] delight.
Our praise, too, gives Him joy—not the song of the lips alone, but the melody of the heart's deep gratitude. Our gifts, too, are very pleasant to Him; He loves to see us lay our time, our talents, our substance upon His altar, not for the value of what we give, but for the sake of the motive from which the gift springs [comes]. To Him the lowly offerings of His saints are more acceptable than thousands of gold and silver.
Holiness is like frankincense and myrrh to Him. Forgive your enemy, and you make Christ glad; distribute of your substance to the poor, and He rejoices; be the means [His instrumentality] of saving souls so that He may see fruit of the travail [labor] of His soul; proclaim His gospel, and you are a sweet savor [aroma] to Him; go among the ignorant and lift up the cross, and you honor Him. It is in your power even now to break the alabaster box, and pour the precious oil of joy upon His head, as did the woman of old, whose memorial is to this day set forth wherever the gospel is preached.
Will you be backward [hold back] then?
Will you not perfume your beloved Lord with the myrrh, aloes, and cinnamon of your heart's praise?
Yes, ivory palaces, you shall hear the songs of the saints!
[Amen].

… and pray for souls to be saved and believers to be strengthened
The Lord … is longsuffering to us-ward, not willing that any should perish, but that all should come to repentance. 2 Peter 3:9
Pray also that believers will be led… by the Holy Spirit to rightly divide and proclaim God’s Word providentially protected and preserved by God, Himself.
John 3:16:
For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life.
For ever, O Lord, thy word is settled in Heaven. Psalm 119:89
God is not the author of confusion. 1 Corinthians 4:33
God, Himself, providentially protects and preserves His WORD. All of His Word is inspired, [God-breathed], self-authenticating, immutable [unchanging and unchangeable], eternal, inerrant, infallible, infinite and all-powerful [omnipotent] Word.
MISSION PURPOSE:
We aim to be fully devoted followers of the Lord Jesus Christ. We trust the Holy Spirit to impart God’s divine revelation to us from His Word, the Holy Bible. We trust that many who are lost will be saved, that believers will be comforted, strengthened and encouraged as we are being conformed to the image of the Lord Jesus Christ; all, to God’s glory.
Divine Scripture is God’s infinite, eternal, inerrant, infallible, immutable revelation to all mankind. Herein, all revealed truth is given to the world. It is God-breathed [inspired] , self-authenticating [compare scripture to scripture] and providentially protected and will endure, immutable, forever. We purpose, therefore, with God enabling, to rightly divide and follow The Holy Bible in all things. Personal guidance in Holiness and all divine revelation to His Church body are through God’s Holy Word, the Bible.
Hence, we resolve, God helping us, to pray, read, study, meditate-on, trust-in and obey God’s revealed and divinely preserved Word, holding it to be the final authority and legal precedent in all things as the divinely established Stare Decisis [Latin: to stand by that which is decided].
Therefore, the purpose of The John Mark Publishing Company is to publish and proclaim the Gospel of Jesus Christ to every creature, ministering God’s love to all, especially those in the household of faith. The Bible is God’s everlasting, inspired, (God breathed) inerrant, infallible, unchangeable, divinely protected and preserved Word of love and salvation to the entire world forever settled in heaven.
It is also the essence and foundation of this ministry as we aim to encourage a growing discipleship and devotional vigor.
History: The preaching, teaching and writing of Charles Haddon Spurgeon is inspired and consistently, continues to reveal God’s love through His Word, rightly divided and conforming to all doctrines of Biblical Christianity. His work continues to benefit, bless and challenge readers through authentic Gospel preaching and its sound biblical teaching. The Lord’s ministry through Charles Spurgeon continues to flourish from (Spurgeon’s) Metropolitan Tabernacle, (Brief History)
This Website is shared with the hope that growth in personal devotions and the edification of the church as well as fully devoted followers of Jesus Christ will occur. We desire that the written Word of God will be the Living Word in the person of the Lord Jesus Christ to each and every reader.
To this end, DailySpurgeon.com is offered as an opportunity to hear Gospel preaching and engage in daily devotions, Bible study and meditation, prayer, and the singing of Sacred praises and Worship to The Lord Jesus in Spirit and in Truth.

Alterations in the Text that are Caused by the inferior Critical Text are found in: NIV, ESV, RSV and all other Modern Language Translations. are translated from the Critical Text which came from the Greek Codices Vaticanus and Sinaiticus. 90% is from Vaticanus and 8-9% from Sinaiticus and were the principle Greek Texts invented by Westcott and Hort’s Greek Text. There are more disagreements than there are agreements between these two sources.
17 verses are deleted out of the New Testament in the Critical Text. 7,000 words are deleted.
Codices Sinaiticus and Vaticanus are counterfeits that were overwritten in the 10th 11th and completely overwritten in the 15th centuries. There are more points of disagreement than agreement between the.
The Geneva Bible was also translated from the Traditional Greek Text, The Textus Receptus [The Received Text] including comments favorable to the Protestant Reformation from, devoted, faithful Christian men of GOD; Puritan Believers whose lives were beyond reproach.
This Bible was brought to Plymouth Massachusetts in the American Colonies by the Puritan Pilgrims guided by Captain Christopher Jones’s on the Mayflower sailing ship in 1620. A 1592 Edition of the Geneva Bible that belonging to a Mayflower passenger and the Governor of the Plymouth Colony (Later to become the State of Massachusetts) by William Bradford and is on display at the Pilgrim Hall Museum in Plymouth, Massachusetts, the oldest continuously operating public museum in the United States.
The traditional Textus Receptus [The Received (Greek) Text] unlike any other Greek Text was taken from more than 5,321 original Majority (Greek Manuscript) Text [MT] that agree 99% with one another. Other variant readings stem from Greek translations invented by either Westcott and Hort or Nestle and Aland. These fabricated Greek Texts were translated from only a handful [45] of Majority Text Manuscripts MT and lack the trustworthiness of the inspired 1769 [1611] King James Version, KJV or the Geneva Bible and are the only two translations of the traditional, reliable, inspired, [GOD BREATHED] immutable and providentially and divinely protected Textus Receptus [TR]
There is also translational evidence that establishes The Traditional Greek Text as both the OLDEST and the BEST. [The Counterfeit proofs offered by Critical Test adherents].

Attempts to change the Bible by adding to, or taking away from the 1769 edition of the King James Version [KJV] of the Holy Bible will not prevail because GOD Himself preserves and protects His inspired [God Breathed, Spoken] , inerrant, [without error] immutable [incapability of changing] and infallible [incapable of having error or failing] God Breathed [Spoken] WORDS.

Can the Website DAILYSPURGEON be trusted? Is it trustworthy?
Is it of God?
YES, it can! Yes, it is! Here’s why.
1 John 4:1-3
Beloved ones, don’t be believing every spirit [everyone or !everything] you hear but be testing the spirit [voice] whether it is of God: because many false prophets have gone [come] out into the world. Here’s how you know the Spirit of God: Every spirit [voice] that confesses [avows] that Jesus Christ is come [is here] in the flesh, having come[who came] out of God, is of God: and every spirit that confesses not [doesn’t audibly avow] that Jesus Christ is come [is here] in the flesh is not of God: and this is that spirit of antichrist, whereof ye have heard that it should come; and even now already is it in the world.
Therefore I do confess, that Jesus Christ is come [is here] in the flesh.
[All translations of the Bible that use Greek translations other than the Traditional AKA the faithful Textus Receptus do not have the Greek word “ictin”. This word means “is” in English] and its exclusion causes the meaning of its translation, “is here” to change to “has” come.
This mistake is self-evident because non-believers, false prophets, atheists and even heretics can, and frequently do, affirm that Jesus Christ “has come” [in the flesh].
While this is a true statement, taken at face value, the meaning of “has come” is clearly not the same as “is here”. When “has” come is the meaning the test God has given in His Word to discern whether words being analyzed are from the Spirit of God or the spirit of antichrist is made void.
One of the most well documented facts in all human history is that Jesus The Christ [The Anointed Messiah] “has” come in the flesh. However, the essential question is not whether the spirit [a spoken or written word] confesses that Jesus Christ “has come” in the flesh but, whether this confession affirms that Jesus Christ, “is come” [is here], in the flesh.
Please Compare and consider [Meditate upon] this scripture with other related scriptures. Precept upon precept, Line upon line…
Isaiah 28:10-14

Ephesians 5:30-32
For we are members of his body, of his flesh, and of his bones. 31 For this cause shall a man leave his father and mother, and shall be joined unto his wife, and they two shall be one flesh.32 This is a great mystery: but I [The Apostle Paul] speak concerning Christ and the church. [The Church body and Bride of CHRIST]
“I speak concerning Christ and the church.” [the fleshly embodiment, here and now, of the body of Christ]. Because followers of Jesus Christ are members of the incarnate Body of Christ [The Church] I freely affirm and avow that Jesus Christ is hereNot “Has come”] in the flesh.

Which Bible Is The Best? (57 minutes) David Hocking
David’s Summary (8 minutes) The problem behind Bible translations is not English. The issue is what Greek text was being used. I believe the true Author is The Holy Spirit. I believe this is the Word of God… We need to understand that The word of GOD in and of itself is power. Power to change your life and through the work of the Holy Spirit can produce the New Birth. We are born again of an incorruptible seed of the Word of God which liveth and abideth forever.

This concept, championed by the Reformation, know that the Holy Spirit illuminate:

Divinely Protected and Providentially Preserved:

The Authorized King James Version (AKJV) also known as The King James Version, Edition of 1769 (KJV), The Authorized Version (AV) and The Geneva Bible are faithful Translations from the preeminent, [surpassing all others], Traditional Greek Text which predates the name given to the Textus Receptus [The Received Text] TR, and is superior to all modern Critical Text translations rendered from inferiorGreek Sources that include: (Westcott & Hort, Nestle & Aland, and Codices Vaticanus, Sinaiticus and Alexandrus).
John 1:1: 1In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and
the Word was God.
_____________________________________________________
John 1:1-3 1In the beginning was he Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God. 2The same was in he beginning with God. 3 all things were made by him; and without him was not anything made that was made.
(KJV) The Authorized Version AV Translation was faithfully translated by fully consecrated, and dedicated men of faith, beyond reproach, preeminent linguists, language scholars who were fully devoted followers of The Lord Jesus Christ. The 1611 King James translation is from the inerrant, inspired and immutable Textus Receptus [Received Text]:
Psalm 119:89 ל (Lamed) For ever, [sic] O Lord, thy word is settled in heaven.
“Thy Word” is The Inspired and Ultimate Stare Decisis [A Legal Term in Latin that establishes the principle of “Legal Precedence”. It means to stand by things decided, and to uphold all things God-Breathed [Inspired] and therefore eternally, Divinely and immutably decided FOREVER]
4:1 Beloved, believe not every spirit, but try the spirits whether they are of God: because many false prophets are gone out into the world. 2 Hereby know ye the Spirit of God: Every spirit that confesseth [says] that Jesus Christ is come [is here] in the flesh is of God: 3 and every spirit that confesseth not that Jesus Christ is come in the flesh is not of God: and this is that spirit of antichrist, whereof ye have heard that it should come; and even now already is it in the world.
Therefore, I now confess that “Jesus Christ is here in the flesh.”
[All other English translations of the Bible that use Greek manuscripts other than the Textus Receptus erroneously renders the English translation “Has come”.
This Translation error is because inferior Greek manuscripts do not include the Greek word “ictin” (This is The Greek word for is that is found only in the Majority Text of the Textus Receptus) and therefore the failure to correctly translate “ictin” [Is Here] into English.
The Authorized King James Version AKJV also known as The Authorized Version AV and the Geneva Bible stand alone in making and giving the correct translation: “is here”.
This error: “has come” is self-evident, because non-believers, false prophets and even heretics can, and sometimes will, make the confession that He “has come” in the flesh. This is no surprise because the birth of Jesus Christ is the most well documented fact in all of recorded history. Indeed, it is a true and factual statement that Jesus Christ has come in the flesh. Yet, while this is, a true and factual statement, the meaning in scripture has now been erroneously changed. The new and erroneous meaning is that now even if He “has come” in the flesh the confession that JESUS CHRIST IS HERE IN THE FLESH is impossible for THE SPIRIT OF ANTICHRIST who is the creator of all heresies to confess. Without it, Don’t believe anything that is said or written.
NEITHER does it provide for the test for believers to discern whether a spirit [voice or written words being read or heard] are from God or from the Antichrist. It is true that Jesus Christ “has come” in the flesh, but it’s essential that the confession that Jesus Christ, “IS HERE IN THE FLESH” Be confessed [be spoken].

By Reading, comparing and meditating on any specific Scripture together with other relevant Scriptures, God’s Word clarifies and self-authenticates:
Therefore we will read and meditate on:
1 John 4:1-3 with Ephesians 5:30-32
Authorized (King James) Version
1 Beloved, believe not every spirit, but try the spirits whether they are of God: because many false prophets are gone out into the world. 2 Hereby know ye the Spirit of God: Every spirit that confesseth that Jesus Christ is come in the flesh is of God: 3 and every spirit that confesseth not that Jesus Christ is come in the flesh is not of God: and this is that spirit of antichrist, whereof ye have heard that it should come; and even now already is it in the world.
30: for we are members of his [Jesus Christs’] body, of his flesh, and of his bones. 31 For this cause shall a man leave his father and mother, and shall be joined unto his wife, and they two shall be one flesh. 32 This is a great mystery: but I speak concerning Christ and His bride the church.
[We are members of His body, flesh and bones, one flesh with Him, as His bride the church].
He was born of a virgin 2026 years ago, and HE lives today,
and He is soon returning for His bride, The Church.
"And without controversy great is the mystery of godliness:
God was manifest in the flesh, justified in the Spirit,
believed on in the world, received up into glory. "1 Timothy 3:16

Why Have Traditional Sacred Hymns Endured for Such a Long aTime?
Because God preserves and protects His Word. The lyrics in Sacred hymns are divinely God breathed [Inspired and Spoken by God] words and are therefore infinite, immutable and eternal.
(Text from Blogger: Notorius Meddler)
… be being filled with the Spirit; speaking to yourselves in psalms and hymns and spiritual songs, singing and making melody [music] in your heart to the Lord; Ephesians 5:18-19

It should be the desire of every born-again believer to worship God with all their heart, soul, mind and strength, in Spirit and in truth.
“Study to show yourself approved unto God, a worker that needs not be ashamed, rightly dividing [accurately sharing] the word of truth.” 2 Timothy 2:15
To this end, Heavenly Father, we pray that You will bless all who visit this website and bring many to confess the Lord Jesus Christ as their Savior and Lord. We ask this in Jesus’ name, Amen.
This Website can not replace nor can it be a substitute for the in-person, personal assembling of ourselves together as is the manner of some. Hebrews 10:23-27
Rather, its purpose is to save lost sinners and to teach and encourage believers through God’s Word and prayer to become fully devoted followers of Jesus Christ [The Anointed Messiah] in personal discipleship and worship of the Lord Jesus as we are predestined to be conformed to His very image.
“For whom God did foreknow he did also predestinate to be conformed to the image of his son…” Romans 8:29
We are, instructed in the Word of GOD to assemble, praise and worship God. Thus, we must assemble and worship the Lord Jesus Christ and exhort [encourage] and provoke one another to do good works.
Such worship may take place through, congregational singing of sacred hymns and spiritual songs, reading, preaching and obeying God’s Word, sharing Christian love and fellowship, agreeing together with specific public prayer requests, and reading and exhorting one another in the Word, to provoke one another to love and serve and bear witness with one another in the Holy Ghost.
Admonition: Online streaming cannot satisfy personal interaction or the warm fellowship of in-person assemblies of brothers and sisters who are in Christ Jesus. Electronic media cannot substitute for the warm inter-personal love, fellowship, commitment, and compassion, nor does it provide for a kind and comforting touch or embrace of another believer. e.g. Laying on of hands, 1 Timothy 4:14; the right hands of Christian fellowship, Galatians 2:9; or an embrace, Acts 20:1; or greeting with a holy kiss,
We give thanks to the Lord, for the Website DailySpurgeon.com and pray that it will continue to be used of The Lord Jesus to build up fully devoted followers of the Lord Jesus Christ [Anointed Messiah] . These followers will be taught to be disciples themselves and will then teach others to be disciples.
We pray that you will also be a radiant messenger of God to share the good news of Jesus Christ with every one, encouraging them to believe in Christ Jesus and to become the very image of Jesus Christ.
This ministry was begun as daily e-mails of Faith’s Checkbook by Charles H. Spurgeon were sent to John -Michael’s son, Jon Edward Riley. Jon shared these messages with others and soon over 300 were added to the mailing list through his witness as he witnessed and shared his testimony with them.
Jon was called home by his loving Father in Heaven on January 16, 2021 leaving a legacy of this Website to minister to all who will benefit in this labor of Love to the glorify God and His Eternal Kingdom. ALL Glory belongs to GOD, alone.
Jon is honored here; giving honor to whom honor is due. Romans 13:7
We pray that many will be born again, challenged, encouraged, and built-up to become fully devoted followers of the Lord Jesus Christ and be conformed to His image; that they might be the firstborn among many brethren. Romans 8:28-29.

A HEARTFELT PRAYER OF THANKSGIVING FOR ARIKARA INDIAN BRAVES
A video… by John-Michael’s son, Jon Edward Riley, [“White Owl”] To whom he Gives honor to whom honor is due.
(February 12, 1971- January16, 2021)
…from a well beloved, Indigenous Brave, and in remembrance of him, my beloved son; comes his heartfelt prayer of thanksgiving to the Lord.
Concluding with…“ A Joyful Heart of Freedom” WAR CRY! ( at video’s end) June 15, 2020
…This is a Video of tribute that honors all Indigenous Braves that gave Military Service and the families of Native-American Scouts from White Shield, North Dakota who served in the armed services of The United States of America defending. …the land of the free and the home of the Brave.
The Video was recorded at…INDIAN SCOUT POST NO 1 Burial grounds, White Shield, North Dakota.

Jon loved to say, “I’m a blood-bought, born-again Child of God!” to anyone he happened to meet.
… Jon’s testimony lives on from one who, by grace, through faith was forever accepted in the Beloved; who’s loving ways brought the good news of Jesus to many. and one who is now present with the LORD in glory forever. One who, one day, we’ll reunite..
Jon would sometimes just sing-out some of the following songs on the way to church, or just singing along with the Elvis Gospel CD that was always in our F-150’s CD player while riding with his Dad or, Best of all, when an inspired, spontaneous praise from the Lord would just pop out from his joyful, creative, redeemed and loving heart.
Some of Jon’s Favorites:
I Love You Lord by the Gaither choir
I Love You Lord Universal Music Group
I LOVE You Lord by Jared Reynolds
Where No One Stands Alone Gaither Vocal Band
Lead Me & Rock-a My Soul by Elvis and friends
He Knows Just What I Need by Elvis
How Great Thou Art with Elvis
Lead Me & Rock-a My Soul Elvis and friends
Lead Me, Guide Me by Elvis
It Is No Secret by Elvis written by Stuart Hamblen
The following recordings were discovered several months after Jon was called home on January 16th 2021. It’s such a blessing, to hear Elvis sing the Gospel message in song but it can’t compare with the Glory of being in the presence of the LORD for all eternity.
LIFE by Elvis
*I Can Only Imagine being present with the LORD, or hearing the completed song the Lord completed with Jon when he arrived; a song known only to the Lord, to Jon and the few who heard Jon sing it here. Lyrics remembered from him singing: "See my Jesus, Walkin' on duh Waduh"… an original, inspired song from our beloved Jon, himself a true and renown original.
* Click and sing:
I CAN ONLY IMAGINE with Wynonna Judd.
LOVE WITHOUT END, AMEN (A Father’s Love) by George Strait honoring George H.W. Bush (41st President) A favorite song of the President.
It’s also my sincere message of love to all my children, grand-children and great grand-children and all loved ones.
…Jon would always say “Later”; [as in, see-ya later] instead of “good bye”. It was the only farewell greeting he would ever use when parting company with a friend; and, everyone was Jon’s friend.
… He would never say “good-bye”.
Now, as we remember the sound of him saying “Later”, it rings true in a new and deeper meaning and it brings a joy and comfort to the hearts of those whom he loved so well; those who love him still and will forever more.
… and how much sweeter to us now, are the promises in these two Hymns:
’TILL WE MEET AGAIN. (sing along, won’t you?)

God Appeals to Reason Isaiah 30:15-21 with Dr. Peter Masters
Before conversion, the claims of God mean nothing to us, but when God's Word speaks to our hearts, [by the Holy Spirit] the challenge becomes inescapable [and Irresistible ]. Self-searching begins, and the kindness of God's forgiving love is grasped as never before. Here is God's reasoning with souls.

The call of the disciples, their unique role, and the care and patience of Christ in their training. Then the preparation of the church for extreme and persistent opposition, the reasons why demons were cast out, the unpardonable sin, and the supreme mark of true conversion.

The goodness of God is fully demonstrated in the promises He makes in the Bible. That the Creator and Sovereign God should deign to give promises to us is amazing. Here are the major promises, how Christ makes them possible, and how we receive them.

Sanctify Them Through Thy Truth John 17:17 Dr. Peter Masters, Pastor

Closeness to Christ 2 Timothy 2:10-12 Dr. Peter Masters

What Is the Gospel by the late Dr. R. C. Sproul
Christians are called to proclaim the Gospel of Jesus Christ, but in our day there is confusion about the content of the Gospel. The biblical Gospel is challenged not only by Roman Catholics and liberals, but by those who claim to be evangelical. In this lecture, Dr. R. C. Sproul will clarify exactly what the Gospel is and what it is not.

The Phenomenon of Love Isaiah 63.7 Dr. Peter Masters
The nature and scope of human love is impressive, but Divine love, made visible in history and, supremely in the atoning sacrifice of Christ, is limitless, freely bestowed and certain toward all who find Him. Here are the 'loving-kindnesses of the Lord' they experience.
Living for the Flesh or for the Spirit Romans 8.5-6 Dr. Peter Masters
There are two classes of people in the Bible, those who focus on 'the flesh', and those who relate to the Spirit. Here are the characteristics and goals of each, and how God can free us from the captivity of flesh to know communion with Himself.
Mutual Debts in Marriage 1 Corinthians 7:3 Dr. Peter Masters 15 January 2012
A key word has slipped out of some modern translations – the marital debt of benevolence, meaning goodwill and kind benefits. Here are seven debts each has to the other in Christian marriage, a sevenfold bond and blessing to the crowning earthly friendship of life’s journey. Are we paying what is ‘due’?
God’s Order for Man and Women 1 Corinthians Ch 11 Dr. Peter Masters
Paul answers the question on the roles of husbands and wives and affirms conformity to the dress code of head coverings in Greek society at that time. With Calvin and major confessions we show that the ‘message’ of clothing may change in other ages and lands.
Things Only Believers See 1 Corinthians 2:9 Dr. Peter Masters
Sunday Morning 13 February 2022

In the building of a spiritual family the work of the Holy Spirit is the vital power. Here several Holy Spirit verses in Ephesians are explored (including 'Be filled with the Spirit') to show the different activities of the Spirit in the Christian life.
The True Source of Power with Dr. Peter Masters
Sunday Morning 23 January 2022
For the Gospel to be credible, (the Corinthians [and many today] erroneously taught), we need conspicuous personalities or preachers. Here Paul proclaims the true source of spiritual power, the preaching of the cross of Christ, and why it is foolishness to the perishing and power to the saved.

He Loved and Gave Himself with Dr. Peter Masters
The enduring amazement of Paul the Apostle shines through these famous words, urging us to explore and ponder the glorious Person of Christ and the way in which He 'gave Himself', or handed Himself over, to the work of redeeming His people.

A SINNER’S PRAYER FOR WHOSOEVER:
Whosoever shall call on the name of the Lord shall be saved. Acts 2:21
Call on the name of the Lord Jesus and be saved … pray like this, won’t you?
“Lord Jesus, I’m a lost sinner and without You I am lost. I can’t save myself. Without your death on the cross to pay my sin debt I would be condemned to spend eternity in Hell. My nature and behavior has been sinful from birth. Please forgive me.
I realize that doing my best, being as good as possible, or being better than other people can never save me. . I’m sorry for each and every sin I have ever done and look to You to forgive them all.
I look to You, alone Lord Jesus to save me.
I call on You, Lord Jesus, right now to save me. You died on the cross for me, as God’s sacrifice for my sin.
Right now, just as I am, I call on You, Lord Jesus to save me, I trust You to be my Savior and Lord.
Thank You, Lord Jesus, that You have forgiven me of all my sins. I want to follow You from now on.
You paid the price for all of my sins by dying on the cross.
Thank you, Lord Jesus that You loved me and died for me before I was born and that You love me still
Thank you, Heavenly Father, that You called me away from sin and death into the Life everlasting in Your only begotten son, the Lord Jesus.
Thank You, Heavenly Father that you raised Jesus from the dead. He is alive and in Him we are victorious over sin, death and the grave.
Thank You for saving me heavenly Father and Holy Spirit for Your comfort and guidance in all things.
With all my heart, thank you Lord Jesus for saving me. In your name, I pray, Amen.
