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.

Faith is two empty hands held open to receive all of the Lord
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
Before we can pray, Lord, Thy Kingdom come, we must be willing to pray, My Kingdom go.
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
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
The conversion of a soul is the miracle of a moment, but the manufacture of a saint is the task of a lifetime.
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
There is no revival possible in any fellowship without a price being paid.
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.
Alan Redpath
How far must a Christian go in order to be saved? Only to the Cross. But if I am disobeying God in my life and cast off His law, it is an absolute declaration of the fact that within my heart I have abandoned worship at the Cross.
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
No sin which we are capable of committing has ever taken God by surprise for He knew we were just like that.
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
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
Return to the battle again, no longer trusting in the false and insufficient human resources which so foolishly we had taken into the battle, but now trusting in the limitless resources of our risen Lord.
Alan Redpath
THINK before you speak. Is it True, Helpful, Inspiring, Necessary, Kind?
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
What we are is much more important to Him than what we do for Him. We mean far more to God than the work we do.
Alan Redpath
Let's keep our chins up and our knees down - we're on the victory side.
