Obey God in all things today! Drive out the enemy! Lay the ax to the root of the tree, and the capacity for Jesus Christ will be increased tomorrow.

The immense step from the Babe at Bethlehem to the living, reigning triumphant Lord Jesus, returning to earth for His own people - that is the glorious truth proclaimed throughout Scripture. As the bells ring out the joys of Christmas, may we also be alert for the final trumpet that will announce His return, when we shall always be with Him.
Alan Redpath
For every discouragement has been allowed to come to us in order that through it we may be cast in utter helplessness at the Saviour's feet.

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 secret of every discord in Christian homes and communities and churches is that we seek our own way and our own glory.
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
When we get to the end of ourselves, we get to the beginning of God.
Alan Redpath
No man can use his Bible with power unless he has the character of Jesus in his heart.
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
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 best place any Christian can ever be in is to be totally destitute and totally dependant upon God, and know it.
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
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
Circumstances which we have resented, situations which we have found desperately difficult, have all been the means in the hands of God of driving the nails into the self-life which so easily complains.
