March 9 Evening Devotional | Abide With Him Forever | Morning and Evening by Charles Spurgeon
Evening, March 9 | “Abide in me.” —John 15:4
This Evening's Scripture Reading: John 15:1-10
“I am the true vine, and my Father is the husbandman. Every branch in me that beareth not fruit he taketh away: and every branch that beareth fruit, he purgeth it, that it may bring forth more fruit. Now ye are clean through the word which I have spoken unto you. Abide in me, and I in you. As the branch cannot bear fruit of itself, except it abide in the vine; no more can ye, except ye abide in me. I am the vine, ye are the branches: He that abideth in me, and I in him, the same bringeth forth much fruit: for without me ye can do nothing. If a man abide not in me, he is cast forth as a branch, and is withered; and men gather them, and cast them into the fire, and they are burned. If ye abide in me, and my words abide in you, ye shall ask what ye will, and it shall be done unto you. Herein is my Father glorified, that ye bear much fruit; so shall ye be my disciples. As the Father hath loved me, so have I loved you: continue ye in my love. If ye keep my commandments, ye shall abide in my love; even as I have kept my Father's commandments, and abide in his love.”
Devotional Video Transcript:
Communion with Christ is a certain cure for every ill. Whether it be the wormwood of woe, or the excess of earthly delight, close fellowship with the Lord Jesus will take bitterness from the one, and fullness from the other. Live near to Jesus, Christian, and it is a matter of secondary importance whether you live on the mountain of honor or in the valley of humiliation. Living near to Jesus, you are covered with the wings of God, and underneath you are the everlasting arms.
Let nothing keep you from that hallowed communion, which is the choice privilege of a soul united with Christ. Be not content with an interview now and then, but seek always to retain his company, for only in his presence do you have either comfort or safety. Jesus should not be unto us a friend who calls upon us now and then, but one with whom we walk evermore.
You have a difficult road before you: be certain, O traveller to heaven, that you do not go without your guide. You have to pass through the fiery furnace; do not enter it unless, like Shadrach, Meshach, and Abednego, you have the Son of God to be your companion. (Daniel 3) You have to storm the Jericho of your own corruptions: do not attempt the warfare until, like Joshua, you have seen the Captain of the Lord’s host, with his sword drawn in his hand. (Joshua 6) You are to meet the Esau of thy many temptations: meet him not until at Jabbok’s brook you have laid hold upon the angel, and prevailed. (Genesis 32) In every case, in every condition, you will need Jesus; but most of all, when the iron gates of death shall open to you.
Keep close to your soul’s Husband, lean your head upon his bosom, ask to be refreshed by his Spirit, and you will be found of him at the end, without spot, or blemish, or any such thing. Seeing you have lived with him, and lived in him here, you will abide with him forever.
