Quote

When a man thinks he has got a good deal of strength, and is self-confident, you may look for his downfall. It may be years before it comes to light, but it is already commenced.

I tell you there is one thing that draws above everything else in this world, and that is love.
Dwight L. Moody
Image
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.

People, when asked if they are Christians, give some of the strangest answers you ever heard. Some will say if you ask them: Well - well - well, I, - I hope I am. Suppose a man should ask me if I am an American. Would I say: Well, I - well, I - I hope I am?

When a man has no strength, if he leans on God, he becomes powerful.

Image
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.

By the grace of God, I'll be that man.

I never saw a useful Christian who was not a student of the Bible. If a man neglects his Bible, he may pray and ask God to use him in His work but God cannot make much use of him, for there is not much for the Holy Ghost to work upon.

Be humble, or you'll stumble.

Some say if only my fears and doubts will leave then I will get to work. But instead you should get to work and then your fears and doubts will leave.
Dwight L. Moody
Image
A man to be converted has to give up his will, his ways, and his thoughts.
Dwight L. Moody
Image
If you pray for bread and bring no basket to carry it, you prove the doubting spirit, which may be the only hindrance to the boon you ask.
Dwight L. Moody
Image
We are not fountains ourselves but the Word of God is the true fountain.
Dwight L. Moody
Image
I firmly believe a great many prayers are not answered because we are not willing to forgive someone.
Dwight L. Moody
Image
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.

It is the greatest pleasure of living to win souls to Christ.
Dwight L. Moody
Image
No one should ever preach on the topic of hell without a tear in his eye.
Dwight L. Moody
Image
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.

The best way to revive a church is to build a fire in the pulpit.

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!
