Satan Seeks to Flood the Fair Garden of the Heart and Make it a Scene of Desolation

Garden-Tomb-Jesus-is-the-resurrection-the-life“It is true that Satan seeks to flood the fair garden of the heart and make it a scene of desolation, but it is also true that many Christians leave open the sluice-gates themselves, and let the dreadful deluge through carelessness and want of prayer to their strong helper. We often forget that the Author of our faith must be the Preserver of it also. The lamp which was burning in the temple was never allowed to go out, but it had to be daily replenished with fresh oil; in like manner, our faith can only live by being sustained with the oil of grace, and we can only obtain this from God Himself. Foolish virgins we shall prove, if we do not secure the needed sustenance for our lamps.”  Charles Spurgeon

“Strengthen, O God, that which thou hast wrought for us.” Psalm 68:28
