More quotes by Dwight L. Moody
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
Unless the Spirit of God is with us, we cannot expect that our prayers will be answered.
Dwight L. Moody
It is a favorite thing with infidels to set their own standard, to measure themsleves by other people. But that will not do in the Day of Judgment. Now we will use God's law as a balance weight.
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 thinking he was somebody forty years learning he was nobody and forty years discovering what God can do with a nobody.
Dwight L. Moody
Small numbers make no difference to God. There is nothing small if God is in it.
Dwight L. Moody
His is a loving, tender hand, full of sympathy and compassion.
Dwight L. Moody
No man can resolve himself into Heaven.
Dwight L. Moody
Out of 100 men, one will read the Bible, the other 99 will read the Christian.
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
The tendency of the world is down - God's path is up.
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
A good many preachers say I am lowering the pulpit. I am glad I am. I am trying to get it down to the level of men's hearts. If I wanted to hit Chicago I would not put the cannon on the top of this building and fire into the air. Too many preachers fire into the air.
Dwight L. Moody
Our Faith must be tested. God builds no ships but what He sends to sea.
Dwight L. Moody
If you do not feel a fervent love and profound pity for humanity, be assured that the gift of Christian eloquence has been denied you. You will not win souls, neither will you acquire that most excellent of earthly sovereignties - sovereignty over human hearts....Love is irresistible.
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
I know I have a first-rate mind, but that`s no source of pride to me. Intelligent people are a dime a dozen. But I am proud of having character.
Dwight L. Moody
So few grow, because so few study.
Dwight L. Moody
Next to the wonder of seeing my Savior will be, I think, the wonder that I made so little use of the power of prayer.
Dwight L. Moody
The grand question of life is, Is my name written in heaven?
Dwight L. Moody
