From the preface by C. H. Spurgeon:

'I commenced these daily portions when I was wading in the surf of controversy. I know the roll of the billows, and the rush of the winds. Never were the promises of Jehovah so precious to me as at this hour.'

He writes with a pastor's heart to encourage believers to enter into the full provision that their relationship to Jesus entitled them to realise, on a daily basis. He explains we have to present the promises of Scripture to God in prayer and faith, anticipating that he will honour what he has said.

C. H. Spurgeon was known as the 'Prince of Preachers'. His Sermons drew thousands and, when printed, sold in there millions.
