July 12 Charles Spurgeon quotes from 2 Peter 2: 9 The LORD knoweth how to deliver the godly out of temptations, and to reserve the unjust unto the day of judgement to be punished. Faith that is never put to test is not true faith writes Charles Spurgeon. God loves the godly or God-like sinner and promises to make a point of knowing who they are, where they are and how to bring about deliverance in His Name. God does not seem to lead us out of trouble but shows us the way of holding on to the truth that God will deliver as His Word promises us He will. We are cautioned to trust God and leave the “how” to the Lord and be content to rejoice in the wake of suffering.
