More quotes by Dwight L. Moody
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.
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
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
I tell you there is one thing that draws above everything else in this world, and that is love.
Dwight L. Moody
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.
Dwight L. Moody
He is the Rock, His work is perfect: For all His ways are judgment: A God of truth and without iniquity, Just and right is He.
Dwight L. Moody
God commands us to be filled with the Spirit, and if we are not filled, it is because we are living beneath our privileges
Dwight L. Moody
The grand question of life is, Is my name written in heaven?
Dwight L. Moody
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
What we want is to be real. Let us not appear to be more than we are. Don't let us put on any cant, any assumed humility, but let us be real that is the delight of God. God wants us to be real men and women, and if we profess to be what we are not, God knows all about us. God hates sham.
Dwight L. Moody
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
Some people come to me and say, Mr. Moody, don't you feel a great responsibility when you come before an audience like this - don't you feel a great weight upon your shoulders? Well. I say, no I cannot convert men I can only proclaim the Gospel.
Dwight L. Moody
As I go into a cemetery I like to think of the time when the dead shall rise from their graves. ... Thank God, our friends are not buried they are only sown!
Dwight L. Moody
There is no harder lesson for man to learn than the lesson of humility. It is the rarest of all gifts. It is a very rare thing to find a man or woman that is following closely the footsteps of the Master in meekness and humility.
Dwight L. Moody
Moses spent forty years in the king's palace thinking that he was somebody then he lived forty years in the wilderness finding out that without GOD he was a nobody finally he spent forty more years discovering how a nobody with GOD can be a somebody.
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
Unless the Spirit of God is with us, we cannot expect that our prayers will be answered.
Dwight L. Moody
God had no children too weak, but a great many too strong to make use of.
Dwight L. Moody
Someday you will read in the papers that Moody is dead. Don't you believe a word of it. At that moment I shall be more alive than I am now. I was born of the flesh in 1837, I was born of the spirit in 1855. That which is born of the flesh may die. That which is born of the Spirit shall live forever.
Dwight L. Moody
We have got nowadays so that we divide lies into white lies and black lies, society lies and business lies, etc. The Word of God knows no such letting-down of the standard.
Dwight L. Moody
