October 30 Evening Devotional | Let Me Hear Your Voice! | Morning and Evening by Charles Spurgeon

Evening, October 30 | “O you who sit in the gardens, My companions are listening for your voice — Let me hear it!.” —Song of Solomon 8:13 (NASB)

Devotional Video Transcript:

My sweet Lord Jesus remembers well the garden of Gethsemane, and although he has left that garden, he now dwells in the garden of his church: there he discloses himself to those who keep his blessed company. That voice of love with which he speaks to his beloved is more musical than the harps of heaven. There is a depth of melodious love within it which leaves all human music far behind. Tens of thousands on earth, and millions above, are indulged with its harmonious accents. Some whom I well know, and whom I greatly envy, are at this moment hearkening to the beloved voice.

O that I were a partaker of their joys! It is true some of these are poor, others bedridden, and some near the gates of death, but O my Lord, I would cheerfully starve with them, pine with them, or die with them, if I might but hear your voice. Once I did hear it often, but I have grieved your Spirit.
Return unto me in compassion, and once again say unto me, “I am your salvation.”

No other voice can content me; I know your voice, and cannot be deceived by another, let me hear it, I pray. I know not what you will say, neither do I make any condition, O my Beloved, do but let me hear you speak, and if it be a rebuke, I will bless you for it. Perhaps to cleanse my dull ear, may need an operation very grievous to the flesh, but let it cost what it may, I turn not from the one consuming desire, cause me to hear your voice.

Pierce my ear with your harshest notes, only do not permit me to continue ignorant to your calls. Tonight, Lord, grant your unworthy one his desire, for I am yours, and you have bought me with your blood. You have opened my eyes to see you, and the sight has saved me. Lord, open my ears. I have read your heart, now let me hear from your lips.
