Quote

If you pray for bread and bring no basket to carry it, you prove the doubting spirit, which may be the only hindrance to the boon you ask.

The work of the Spirit is to impart life, to implant hope, to give liberty, to testify of Christ, to guide us into all truth, to teach us all things, to comfort the believer, and to convict the world of sin.
Dwight L. Moody
Image
A good example is far better than a good precept.
Dwight L. Moody
Image
God stands in no need of our strength or wisdom, but of our ignorance, of our weakness let us but give these to Him, and He can make use of us in winning souls.
Dwight L. Moody
Image
We are told to let our light shine, and if it does, we won't need to tell anybody it does. Lighthouses don't fire cannons to call attention to their shining- they just shine.
Dwight L. Moody
Image
Some men’s prayers need to be cut short at both ends and set on fire in the middle.
Dwight L. Moody
Image
In Proverbs we read: 'He that winneth souls is wise.' If any man, women, or child by a godly life and example can win one soul to God, his life will not have been a failure. He will have outshone all the mighty men of his day, because he will have set a stream in motion that will flow on and on forever and ever.

So few grow, because so few study.

If God did not want us to understand the book of Revelation, He would not have given it to us at all.
Dwight L. Moody
Image
Is there any reason why you should not have faith in God? Has God ever broken one of His promises? I defy any infidel or unbeliever to place a finger on a single promise of God ever made and failed to fulfill.
Dwight L. Moody
Image
How far away is Heaven? It is not so far as some imagine. It wasn't very far from Daniel. It was not so far off that Elijah's prayer and those of others could not be heard there. Men full of the Spirit can look right into heaven.

Earth recedes....Heav en opens before me.

The Bible was not given for our information but for our transformation.

Image
If a man gets drunk and goes out and breaks his leg so that it must be amputated, God will forgive him if he asks it, but he will have to hop around on one leg all his life.
Dwight L. Moody
Image
How many people would like to get up in a social prayer-meeting to say a few words for Christ, but there is such a cold spirit of criticism in the church that they dare not do it.
Dwight L. Moody
Image
We talk about heaven being so far away. It is within speaking distance to those who belong there. Heaven is a prepared place for a prepared people.
Dwight L. Moody
Image
Salvation is worth working for. It is worth a man's going round the world on his hands and knees, climbing its mountains, crossing its valleys, swimming its rivers, going through all manner of hardship in order to attain it. But we do not get it in that way. It is to him who believes.

I am walking toward a bright light and the nearer I get the brighter it is.

I now opened my Bible and began to study, and faith has been growing ever since.

Small numbers make no difference to God. There is nothing small if God is in it.

Character is what you are in the dark.
