If we have got the true love of God shed abroad in our hearts, we will show it in our lives. We will not have to go up and down the earth proclaiming it. We will show it in everything we say or do.
Dwight L. Moody

In our prayers, we talk to God, in our Bible study, God talks to us, and we had better let God do most of the talking.

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.

I never saw a useful Christian who was not a student of the Bible. If a man neglects his Bible, he may pray and ask God to use him in His work but God cannot make much use of him, for there is not much for the Holy Ghost to work upon.
Dwight L. Moody
Image
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.

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
My friends, look to Christ, and not to yourselves. That is what is the matter with a great many sinners instead of looking to Christ, they are looking at the bite of sin.
Dwight L. Moody
Image
Before we pray that God would fill us, I believe we ought to pray Him to empty us.

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.

I hunted all through the four Gospels trying to find one of Christ's funeral sermons, but I couldn't find any. I found He broke up every funeral He ever attended! Death couldn't exist where He was.

We can stand affliction better than we can prosperity, for in prosperity we forget God.

The Scriptures were not given to increase our knowledge, but to change our lives.

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.

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.

The impression that a praying mother leaves upon her children is life-long. Perhaps when you are dead and gone your prayer will be answered.
