Quote

The first thing a man must do if he desires to be used in the Lord's work, is to make an unconditional surrender of himself to God.

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
I have had more trouble with myself than with any other man I have ever met.
Dwight L. Moody
Image
'Faith cometh by hearing and hearing by the Word of God' (Rom. 10:17). That is whence faith comes. It is not for me to sit down and wait for faith to come stealing over me with a strong sensation, but is for me to take God at His Word.
Dwight L. Moody
Image
Every great movement of God can be traced to a kneeling figure.
Dwight L. Moody
Image
Before we pray that God would fill us, I believe we ought to pray Him to empty us.

Image
I have come a hundred miles, said a minister, to get some of Mr. Moody's spirit. You don't want my spirit, was the reply. What you want is the Spirit of God.

I'd rather get ten men to do the job than to do the job of ten men.

When I first became a Christian I thought I would be glad when I got farther on, and got established. I thought I would be so strong and there would not be any danger but the longer I live, the more danger I see there is. The only hope of any Christian...is to keep hold of Christ.

God never made a promise that was too good to be true.
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
God has cast our confessed sins into the depths of the sea, and He's even put a 'No Fishing' sign over the spot.
Dwight L. Moody
Image
The Bible will keep you from sin, or sin will keep you from the Bible.
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.
Dwight L. Moody
Image
To be tempted is not to sin. The strongest attacks are made on the strongest forts.
Dwight L. Moody
Image
I never saw a fruit-bearing Christian who was not a student of the Bible.
Dwight L. Moody
Image
I am walking toward a bright light and the nearer I get the brighter it is.
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
I like my way of doing things better than your way of not doing them.

There is no better evangelist in the world than the Holy Spirit.
Dwight L. Moody

A man can no more take in a supply of grace for the future than he can eat enough today to last him for the next 6 months, nor can he inhale sufficient air into his lungs with one breath to sustain life for a week to come. We are permitted to draw upon God's store of grace from day to day as we need it.
