Image
Life is very sweet to me, and there is no position of power or wealth that could tempt me from the throne God has given me.
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
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
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
Christ came down to save us from a terrible hell, and any man who is cast down to hell from here must go in the full blaze of the gospel, and over the mangled body of the Son of God.
Dwight L. Moody
Image
I believe this is a mistake a great many of us are making we are trying to do God's work with the grace God gave us ten years ago. We say, if it is necessary, we will go on with the same grace. Now, what we want is a fresh supply, a fresh anointing and fresh power, and if we seek it, and seek it with all our hearts, we will obtain it.
Dwight L. Moody
Image
Man is born with his face turned away from God. When he truly repents, he is turned right round toward God he leaves his old life.
Dwight L. Moody
Image
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
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
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
I am walking toward a bright light and the nearer I get the brighter it is.
Dwight L. Moody
Image
God had no children too weak, but a great many too strong to make use of.
Dwight L. Moody
Image
In Proverbs we read: 'He that winneth souls is wise.' If any man, women, or child by a godly life and example can win one soul to God, his life will not have been a failure. He will have outshone all the mighty men of his day, because he will have set a stream in motion that will flow on and on forever and ever.

Image
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
Image
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.

Image
A missions conference is a business meeting to decide the fate of the heathen.
Dwight L. Moody
Image
Verily I say unto you, he that heareth my word and believeth on Him that sent me, hath everlasting life, and shall not come into condemnation, but is passed from death unto life. My friend, that is worth more than all the feeling you can have in a life-time.
Dwight L. Moody
Image
Some men’s prayers need to be cut short at both ends and set on fire in the middle.
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
A worker must win the hearts and affections of the people before he can do any effective work.
