Listen to no man who has not listened to God.
The idea that this world is a playground instead of a battleground has now been accepted in practice by the vast majority of Christians.
God's gifts are many; His best gift is one. It is the gift of Himself.
We please God most, not by frantically trying to make ourselves good, but by throwing ourselves into His arms.
I want to live so fully in the Spirit that...every act of my life may be an act of worship.
God doesn't work through us because we're flawless; rather, He works through us in spite of our imperfections.
His words are the essence of truth...Jesus never uttered opinions. He never guessed; He knew, and He knows.
We go astray when we think that we can do spiritual work without spiritual power.
If you would follow on to know the Lord, come at once to the open Bible expecting it to speak to you. Do not come with the notion that it is a thing which you may push around at your convenience. It is more than a thing, it is a voice, a word, the very Word of the living God.
God expects of us only what He Himself has supplied.
Holiness, as taught in the Scriptures, is not based upon knowledge on our part. Rather, it is based upon the resurrected Christ in-dwelling us and changing us into His likeness.
The widest thing in the universe is not space; it is the potential capacity of the human heart. Being made in the image of God, it is capable of almost unlimited extension in all directions. And one of the world's greatest tragedies is that we allow our hearts to shrink until there is room in them for little besides ourselves.
Refuse to be average. Let your heart soar as high as it will.
The goodness of God is infinitely more wonderful than we will ever be able to comprehend.
The victorious Christian neither exalts nor downgrades himself. His interests have shifted from self to Christ. What he is or is not no longer concerns him. He believes that he has been crucified with Christ and he is not willing either to praise or deprecate such a man.
God answers our prayers not because we are good, but because He is good.
Jesus will never qualify or compromise anything he has said.
Whatever God can do faith can do, and whatever faith can do prayer can do when it is offered in faith. An invitation to prayer is, therefore, an invitation to omnipotence, for prayer engages the Omnipotent God and brings Him into our human affairs. Nothing is impossible to the man who prays in faith, just as nothing is impossible with God. This generation has yet to prove all that prayer can do for believing men and women.
What I was saved to is much more important than what I was saved from.
If you want to be holy then you must give time to God and not just intend to.
Are you satisfied being filled with good information about God, or do you long to burst into His manifest presence?
I think a new world will arise out of the religious mists when we approach our Bible with the idea that it is not only a book which was once spoken, but a book which is now speaking.
To truly know God we must long for Him without any other motive than reaching God Himself.
The idea that God will pardon a rebel who has not given up his rebellion is contrary both to the Scriptures and to common sense. How horrible to contemplate a church full of persons who have been pardoned but who still love sin and hate the ways of righteousness. And how much more horrible to think of heaven as filled with sinners who had not repented nor changed their way of living.
It is doubtful whether God can bless a man greatly until he has hurt him deeply." God actually rises up storms of conflict in relationships at times in order to accomplish that deeper work in our character. We cannot love our enemies in our own strength. This is graduate-level grace. Are you willing to enter this school? Are you willing to take the test? If you pass, you can expect to be elevated to a new level in the Kingdom. For He brings us through these tests as preparation for greater use in the Kingdom. You must pass the test first.
