    Charles Spurgeon

    Charles H. Spurgeon (1834-1892), nació en Inglaterra, y fue un predicador bautista que se mantuvo muy influyente entre cristianos de diferentes denominaciones, los cuales todavía lo conocen como «El príncipe de los predicadores». El predicó su primer sermón en 1851 a los dieciséis años y paso a ser pastor de la iglesia en Waterbeach en 1852. Publicó más de 1.900 sermones y predicó a 10.000,000 de personas durante su vida. Además, Spurgeon fue autor prolífico de una variedad de obras, incluyendo una autobiografía, un comentario bíblico, libros acerca de la oración, un devocional, una revista, poesía, himnos y más. Muchos de sus sermones fueron escritos mientras él los predicaba y luego fueron traducidos a varios idiomas. Sin duda, ningún otro autor, cristiano o de otra clase, tiene más material impreso que C.H. Spurgeon.

      DAVID’S PRAYER IN THE CAVE

      Psalm 142

      A Prayer when he was in the cave. David prayed when he was in the cave. If he had prayed half as much when he was in the palace as he did when he was in the cave, it would have been better for him. But, alas, when he was king, we find him rising from his bed in the evening, looking from the roof of the house, and falling into temptation.

      If he had been looking up to Heaven if his heart bad been in communion with God he might never have committed that great crime which has so deeply stained his whole character.

      A prayer when he was in the cave. God will hear prayer on land, on the sea and even under the sea. I remember a Brother, when in prayer, making use of that last expression.

      Somebody who was at the Prayer Meeting was rather astonished at it and asked, How would God hear prayer under the sea? On enquiry, we found out that the man who uttered those words was a diver and often went down to the bottom of the sea after wrecks. And he said that he had held communion with God while he had been at work in the depths of the ocean.

      Our God is not only the God of the hills, but of the valleys, also!

      He is God of both sea and land. He heard Jonah when the disobedient Prophet was at the bottom of the mountains and the earth with her bars seemed to be about him forever.

      Wherever you work, you can pray! Wherever you lie sick, you can pray! There is no place to which you can be banished where God is not near—and there is no time of day or night when His Throne is inaccessible!

      A prayer when he was in the cave.
