More quotes by Dwight L. Moody
Some people think God does not like to be troubled with our constant coming and asking. The way to trouble God is not to come at all.
Dwight L. Moody
I like my way of doing things better than your way of not doing them.
Dwight L. Moody
Joy is love exalted peace is love in response long-suffering is love enduring gentleness is love in society goodness is love in action faith is love on the battlefield meekness is love in tough situations and temperance is love in training.
Dwight L. Moody
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
Faith gives us living joy and dying rest.
Dwight L. Moody
There will be no peace in any soul until it is willing to obey the voice of God.
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
The measure of a man is not how many servants he has but how many men he serves .
Dwight L. Moody
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
Lust is the devil's counterfeit for love. There is nothing more beautiful on earth than a pure love and there is nothing so blighting as lust.
Dwight L. Moody
After we have made our requests known to Him, our language should be, Thy will be done. I would a thousand times rather that Gods' will should be done than my own.
Dwight L. Moody
It is not the man that can preach the best that is the most successful, but the man who knows how to get his people together to pray.
Dwight L. Moody
A great many people wonder why it was that Christ did not come at once to Martha and Mary, whom He loved, whenever He heard of their affliction. It was to try them, and it is the same with His dealings toward us. If He seems not to come to us in our affliction, it is only to test us.
Dwight L. Moody
Use me then, my Saviour for whatever purpose and whatever way thou mayest require. Here is my poor heart, and empty vessel fill it with Thy Grace.
Dwight L. Moody
Seeking to perpetuate one's name on earth is like writing on the sand by the seashore to be perpetual it must be written on eternal shores.
Dwight L. Moody
A holy life will produce the deepest impression. Lighthouses blow no horns they only shine.
Dwight L. Moody
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
I am glad there are things in the Bible I do not understand. If I could take that book up and read it as I would any other book, I might think I could write a book like that.
Dwight L. Moody
More depends on my walk than talk.
Dwight L. Moody
If God tells us to do a thing we are to do it if He tells us to believe a thing, we are to believe it we are to have faith in God. Have faith in God, and if God tells you to believe a thing believe it, and then you will have peace and confidence and joy.
Dwight L. Moody
