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.

Image
Everybody wants to enjoy heaven after they die, but they don't want to be heavenly-minded while they live.
Dwight L. Moody
Image
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
Image
Before we pray that God would fill us, I believe we ought to pray Him to empty us.
Dwight L. Moody
Image
A holy life will produce the deepest impression. Lighthouses blow no horns they only shine.
Dwight L. Moody

Character is what you are in the dark.
Dwight L. Moody
Image
Earth recedes, Heaven opens before me. If this is death, it is sweet! There is no valley here. God is calling me, and I must go.
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.
Dwight L. Moody
Image
If a man just stops to think what he has to praise God for, he will find there is enough to keep him singing praises for a week.
Dwight L. Moody
Image
If our circumstances find us in God, we shall find God in all our circumstances.
Dwight L. Moody
Image
A good example is far better than a good precept.
Dwight L. Moody
Image
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
Image
If God has given you a message, go and give it to the people as God has given it to you. It is a stupid thing to try to be eloquent.
Dwight L. Moody
Image
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
Image
It is the greatest pleasure of living to win souls to Christ.
Dwight L. Moody
Image
Unless the Spirit of God is with us, we cannot expect that our prayers will be answered.
Dwight L. Moody
Image
Give me a man who says this one thing I do, and not those fifty things I dabble in.
Dwight L. Moody
Image
A man to be converted has to give up his will, his ways, and his thoughts.
Dwight L. Moody
Image
I believe the religion of Christ covers the whole man. Why shouldn't a man play baseball or lawn-tennis? ... Don't imagine that you have got to go into a cave to be consecrated, and stay there all your life. Whatever you take up, take it up with all your heart.
Dwight L. Moody
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
Some say if only my fears and doubts will leave then I will get to work. But instead you should get to work and then your fears and doubts will leave.
