More quotes by Alan Redpath
Let us learn this lesson from Nehemiah: you never lighten the load unless first you have felt the pressure in your own soul. You are never used of God to bring blessing until God has opened your eyes and made you see things as they are.
Alan Redpath
If you look up into His face and say, Yes, Lord, whatever it costs, at that moment He'll flood your Life with His presence and power.
Alan Redpath
There is no circumstance, no trouble, no testing, that can ever touch me until, first of all, it has gone past God and past Christ, right through to me. If it has come that far, it has come with great purpose.
Alan Redpath
The condition of an enlightened mind is a surrendered heart.
Alan Redpath
When God wants to do an impossible task, he takes an impossible man, and he crushes him.
Alan Redpath
When we get to the end of ourselves, we get to the beginning of God.
Alan Redpath
There's some task which the God of all the universe, the great Creator, your redeemer in Jesus Christ has for you to do, and which will remain undone and incomplete until by faith and obedience you step into the will of God.
Alan Redpath
The Christian life doesn't get easier as one gets older.
Alan Redpath
We need, men so possessed by the Spirit of God that God can think His thoughts through our minds, that He can plan His will through our actions, that He can direct His strategy of world evangelization through His Church.
Alan Redpath
Deep down in the Christian's life, always and all the time, there is to be a no to every demand that the flesh may make for recognition, and every demand that the flesh may make for approval, and every demand that the flesh may make for vindication. Always the Christian must bear about in his body the marks of the Lord Jesus.
Alan Redpath
The essence of sin is arrogance the essence of salvation is submission.
Alan Redpath
The Bible NEVER flatters its heroes. It tells us the truth about each one of them in order that against the background of human breakdown and failure we may magnify the grace of God and recognize that it is the delight of the Spirit of God to work upon the platform of human impossibilities.
Alan Redpath
We are fit for the work of God only when we have wept over it, prayed about it, and then we are enabled by Him to tackle the job that needs to be done.
Alan Redpath
Let's keep our chins up and our knees down - we're on the victory side.
Alan Redpath
Our god is the thing, or person, which we think most precious, for whom we would make the greatest sacrifice, and who moves our heart with the warmest love. He is the person or thing that if lost would leave us desolate.
Alan Redpath
God will never plant the seed of his life upon the soil of a hard, unbroken spirit. He will only plant that seed where the conviction of his spirit has brought brokenness, where the soil has been watered with the tears of repentance as well as the tears of joy.
Alan Redpath
It's Satan's delight to tell me that once he's got me, he will keep me. But at that moment I can go back to God. And I know that if I confess my sins, God is faithful and just to forgive me.
Alan Redpath
We are not saved in order to be a blessing to other people--you will be that inevitably--but primarily we are saved in order to be conformed to the likeness of Jesus Christ, God's Son.
Alan Redpath
I believe that the sphere of service, your career, the plan which God has mapped out for you and prepared for you, is the greatest agency in His hands to conform You to His character and to His will.
Alan Redpath
Before we can pray, Lord, Thy Kingdom come, we must be willing to pray, My Kingdom go.
