More quotes by Dwight L. Moody
'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

Dwight L. Moody
Every one of our children will be brought into the ark, if we pray and work earnestly for them.
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 have had more trouble with myself than with any other man I have ever met.
Dwight L. Moody
True will-power and courage are not on the battlefield, but in everyday conquests over our intertia, laziness, boredom.
Dwight L. Moody
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
Real true faith is man's weakness leaning on God's strength.
Dwight L. Moody
There will be no peace in any soul until it is willing to obey the voice of God.
