G. Campbell Morgan
George Campbell Morgan (1863 - 1945). British Congregationalist preacher, author, and Bible scholar born in Tetbury, Gloucestershire, England. Converted at 10 under D.L. Moody’s preaching, he began teaching at 13, despite no formal theological training. Rejected by the Wesleyan Methodists for weak sermons, he pastored independently before leading Birmingham’s Westminster Road Church in 1886, growing it to 1,000 members. From 1904 to 1919, he pastored Westminster Chapel in London, and after a U.S. stint, returned from 1933 to 1943, mentoring Martyn Lloyd-Jones. Morgan authored over 60 books, including The Crises of the Christ (1903), and his 10-volume Westminster Pulpit series sold widely. A global lecturer, he taught at Moody Bible Institute and Gordon College, influencing millions. Married to Annie Morgan in 1888, they had seven children, four becoming pastors. His expository preaching, emphasizing biblical clarity, shaped 20th-century evangelicalism.

Sermon Summary
G. Campbell Morgan emphasizes the profound truth that God's grace is sufficient for every believer, even amidst trials and suffering. He explains that the challenges we face, including the 'stake in the flesh' and messengers of Satan, are not against us but are part of God's divine plan and purpose. These hardships serve as instruments of God's grace, designed to strengthen and discipline us, revealing His love and control over our lives. Morgan reassures that every burden we carry is known to God and is under His sovereign authority, encouraging us to trust in His grace.
God's Sufficient Grace
"My grace is sufficient for thee." Upon that great word many a weary head has rested; many wounded hearts have been healed by it; discouraged souls have heard its infinite music and have set their lives to new endeavor until they have become victorious. That stake in the flesh, that messenger of Satan, is in My grace. It is part of My method. The stake in the flesh is sent. The messenger of Satan is My messenger. That is not something that is against you, but for you. This hard and difficult and trying circumstance is not something outside My providence, My economy, which you must overcome with My help: it is of My purpose, it is My plan. I am high enthroned above all the powers of darkness, and to the trusting soul Satan himself is compelled to be a means of My grace. All your suffering is in My economy. I have poised in My own hand the weight of your burden and know it. Everything that is imposed upon you is under My control. "My grace is sufficient for thee." It is enough for you to know that what you are suffering is part of My discipline, evidence of My love.
