Hallelujah, praise the living God for another day to pray for you all and be used by Him. Today I offer this line from Charles H. Spurgeon.

“God had one Son without sin, but not a single child without the rod.”

Proverbs 13:24
New American Standard Bible 1995

²⁴ He who withholds his rod hates his son,
But he who loves him disciplines him diligently.

Heavenly Father, in the name of our Lord Jesus, Your servant praises and worships You.  Bless You, for sending Your only begotten Son to take the punishment the law required on our behalf. Praise Your mercy that spared us from eternal separation from You and for Your perfect justice that did not spare the rod on our Lord Jesus’ back. We cannot begin to grasp the greatness of this sacrifice, but we are grateful and know that all the glory is Yours. Thank You for this highest expression of love that disciples our hearts to walk on Your path as we are empowered by Your Holy Spirit. Father, we thank You that You have heard us. Amen in Jesus’ name and by the power of the Holy Spirit.
