More quotes by Dwight L. Moody
The best work usually meets the strongest opposition.
Dwight L. Moody
If you do not feel a fervent love and profound pity for humanity, be assured that the gift of Christian eloquence has been denied you. You will not win souls, neither will you acquire that most excellent of earthly sovereignties - sovereignty over human hearts....Love is irresistible.
Dwight L. Moody
Where one man reads the Bible, a hundred read you and me.
Dwight L. Moody
I went to preaching again. The sermons were not different I did not present any new truths, and yet hundreds were converted. I would not now be placed back where I was before that blessed experience if you should give me all the world - it would be as dust in the balance.
Dwight L. Moody
It is a favorite thing with infidels to set their own standard, to measure themsleves by other people. But that will not do in the Day of Judgment. Now we will use God's law as a balance weight.
Dwight L. Moody
The measure of a man is not how many servants he has but how many men he serves .
Dwight L. Moody

A great many people are trying to make peace, but that has already been done. God has not left it for us to do all we have to do is to enter into it.
Dwight L. Moody
I am walking toward a bright light and the nearer I get the brighter it is.
Dwight L. Moody
Moses spent forty years in the king's palace thinking that he was somebody then he lived forty years in the wilderness finding out that without GOD he was a nobody finally he spent forty more years discovering how a nobody with GOD can be a somebody.
Dwight L. Moody
Moses spent forty years thinking he was somebody forty years learning he was nobody and forty years discovering what God can do with a nobody.
Dwight L. Moody
God had no children too weak, but a great many too strong to make use of.
Dwight L. Moody
There is no better evangelist in the world than the Holy Spirit.
Dwight L. Moody
Out of 100 men, one will read the Bible, the other 99 will read the Christian.
Dwight L. Moody
If we do not love one another, we certainly shall not have much power with God in prayer.
Dwight L. Moody
Dr. Bonar once said that he could tell when a Christian was growing. In proportion to his growth in grace he would elevate his Master, talk less of what he himself was doing, and become smaller and smaller in his own esteem, until, like the morning star, he faded away before the rising sun.
Dwight L. Moody
Earth recedes....Heav en opens before me.
Dwight L. Moody
When I was a young man I heard Henry Barley say that the world has yet to see what God can do for a man fully yielded to Him, and I said I wanted to be that man. But I can say today the world has yet to see what God can do with a man fully yielded to Him.
Dwight L. Moody
We may easily be too big for God to use, but never too small.
Dwight L. Moody
