Martyrdom of Lady Jane Grey

On this day in 1554, Lady Jane Grey (the ‘Queen of Nine Days’) was tragically executed during the reign of Queen Mary I (‘Bloody Mary’). On the night before her execution, she wrote the following at the end of her Greek New Testament, which she sent as a gift to her sister:

“I have here sent you, my dear sister Katherine, a book, which although it be not outwardly trimmed with gold, or the curious embroidery of the artfulness needles, yet inwardly it is more worth than all the precious mines which the vast world can boast of: it is the book, my only best, and best-loved sister, of the law of the Lord: it is the Testament and last will, which he bequeathed unto us wretches and wretched sinners, which shall lead you to the path of eternal joy…

.. My good sister, once more again let me entreat thee to learn to die; deny the world, defy the devil, and despise the flesh, and delight yourself only in the Lord: be penitent for your sins, and yet despair not; be strong in faith, yet presume not; and desire with St. Paul to be dissolved and to be with Christ, with whom, even in death there is life…

… Now as touching my death, rejoice as I do, my dearest sister, that I shall be delivered of this corruption, and put on incorruption: for I am assured that I shall, for losing of a mortal life, win one that is immortal, joyful, and everlasting.”

Reading 1 Chronicles Chapter 12 by Alexander Scourby

The mighty men “came with a perfect heart to serve David.” And the tribes, “the children of Issachar which were men that had understanding of the times to know what Israel out to do.”

Reading geneaologies, though tedious at times, yields its treasures. The Word of God will not return void without accomplishing its purpose. All Scripture, that is ALL Scripture is profitable for reproof, correction and training up in righteousness.

Spurgeon’s Lecture to My Students-Prayer

February 24, 2020

Screenshot_20200224-165119_Google-01 (1)

“Let the Lord alone be the object of your prayers. Beware of having an eye to the auditors; beware of becoming rhetorical to please the listeners. Prayers must not be transformed into “an oblique sermon.” It is little short of blasphemy to make devotions an occasion for display. Fine prayers are generally very wicked prayers. We may aim at exciting the yearnings and aspirations of those who hear us in prayer; but every word and thought must be God ward, and only so far touching upon the people as may be needful to bring them and their wants before the LORD. Remember the people in your prayers, but do not mold your supplications to win their esteem; look up, look up with both eyes…We need a heavenly frame of mind.” ~Pastor Charles H. Spurgeon
