If your life does not worship God, your lips do not worship God either.

If in our Saturday pursuits we're far from God's presence, we're not in very good shape to worship Him on Sunday.

His words are the essence of truth...Jesus never uttered opinions. He never guessed He knew, and He knows.

Image
We can afford to follow Him to failure. Faith dares to fail. The resurrection and the judgment will demonstrate before all worlds who won and who lost. We can wait.

The heart that knows God can find God anywhere.

Image
We may sing, 'Crown Him Lord of all,' and rejoice in the tones of the loud-sounding organ and the deep melody of harmonious voices, but still we have done nothing until we have left the world and set our faces toward the city of God in hard practical reality. When faith becomes obedience then it is true faith indeed.

Nothing that comes from God will minister to my pride of self-congratulation. If I am tempted to be complacent and to feel superior because I have had a remarkable vision or an advanced spiritual experience, I should go at once to my knees and repent of the whole thing. I have fallen victim to the enemy.

All great Christians have been wounded souls.

We are in an age of religious complexity. The simplicity which is in Christ is rarely found among us. In its stead are programs, methods, organizations, and a world of nervous activities which occupy time and attention but can never satisfy the longing of the heart.

Oh, if we would only remember who God is!

The weakness of so many modern Christians is that they feel too much at home in the world

When you focus on the eternal, victorious Son of God, you break the devil's heart and render him powerless.

God sees us perfect in His Son while He disciplines and chastens and purges us that we may be partakers of His holiness.

The true Church has never sounded out public expectations before launching her mission. Her leaders heard from God, they knew their Lord's will and did it. Their people followed them - sometimes to triumph, oftener to insults and public persecution - and their sufficient reward was the satisfaction of being right in a wrong world!

There is scarcely anything so dull and meaningless as Bible doctrine taught for its own sake. Truth divorced from life is not truth in its Biblical sense, but something else and something less.

The ideal leader is one who hears the voice of God, and beckons on as the voice calls him and them.

I would like to live to see the time when the men and woman of God - holy, separated and spiritually enlightened - walk out of the evangelical church and form a group of their own when they get off the sinking ship and let her go down in the brackish and worldliness and form a new ark to ride out the storm.

I don't want the world to define God for me. I want the Holy Spirit to reveal God to me.

The neglected heart will soon be a heart overrun with worldly thoughts the neglected life will soon become a moral chaos.
