I thought this Spurgeon quote speaks about our need for the dew of heaven in a similar way that our passage in Mark 8 Sunday showed us our need to see who Jesus is more clearly. Hope it blesses you too.

The Dew of Heaven

“His heavens shall drop down dew.” – Deuteronomy 33:28

What the dew in the East is to the world of nature, that is the influence of the Spirit in the realm of grace. How greatly do I need it! Without the Spirit of God, I am a dry and withered thing. I droop, fade, and die. How sweetly does this dew refresh me! When once favored with it, I feel happy, lively, vigorous, and elevated. I need nothing more. The Holy Spirit brings me life and all that life requires. All else without the dew of the Spirit is less than nothing to me. I hear, I read, I pray and sing, and go to the Communion table, and yet I find no blessing there until the Holy Ghost visits me. But when He does, every means of grace is sweet and profitable.

What a promise this is for me! “His heavens shall drop down dew.” I shall be visited with grace. I shall not be left to my natural drought or to the world’s burning heat, or to satanic temptation. Oh, that I may at this very hour feel the gentle, silent, saturating dew of the Lord. Why should I not? He who had made me to live as the grace lives in the meadow will treat me as He treats the grass–He will refresh me from above. Grass cannot call for dew as I do. Surely the Lord, who visits the unpraying plant, will answer His pleading child.

– C. H. Spurgeon
