Product Highlights
"F B Meyer preaches as a man who has seen God face to face" "An admirable little volume, which should prove helpful to any preacher, while as the companion of the private student, it should be invaluable." To some the Psalms are merely to be read, and, perhaps, forgotten. Thus their rich treasures are never discovered. Often this is because people do not realize the infinite amount of gold there is to be mined in the Psalms. Listen to a master of this Bible Book as with implements of experience and spiritual insight he enthusiastically probes this golden store. The intentions of the Psalms are to teach, to bring to remembrance, to give thanks and to commemorate the circumstances under which the Psalms were penned. The most prominent feature in the Psalms is praise. Author Meyer himself comments, 'There are three ways in which the Psalms may be studied. We may look at them, first, as recording the inner heart-history of those who wrote them, and especially of David. Next we should study the Psalter in its bearing on our blessed Lord. Lastly, we may study the Psalms for durableness, nourishing our spirits with their rich expressions of experimental religion.' As one seeks to open up, to study the Psalms, he will find this masterful, comprehensive, deeply-devotional volume on that book an inestimable aid and faithful guide to a better and fuller understanding of the sacred and blessed treasures of the divinely-inspired Psalms. These gripping studies provide unusually fine sermon outline material as well. About the Author Dr. Meyer began pastoring in 1870, and in 1872 he went to Priory Street Baptist Chapel. There he met D. L. Moody, who made a lasting impression upon his life and taught him valuable spiritual lessons. These two godly men formed a lifelong friendship. During his long and fruitful life, he preached more than 16,000 sermons. Said one author: 'The phrasing of Meyer's sermons was simple and direct; he polished his discourses as an artist polishes a perfect stone. There was always a glowing imagery in his words; his speech was pastoral, lovely as an English valley washed in sunlight…In his day, great wars raged. Those who went to hear him forgot the battles.' A distinct feature of F. B. Meyer's ministry was his outcry against the social evils of his day. Not only was he effective in the temperance movement, but he was also responsible for the closing of over 500 houses of prostitution. He also formed a prison aid society. A devoted student of God's Word, he was the author of over 40 books, including Bible biographies (character studies), devotional commentaries, sermon volumes and expository works. He also authored several pamphlets and edited a number of magazines.
