People who have a seeking heart still make mistakes. But their reaction to rebuke and correction shows the condition of that heart. It determines what God is able to do with them in the future.

The more we pray, the more we sense our need to pray. And the more we sense a need to pray, the more we want to pray.
Jim Cymbala
If we repeatedly read the Bible without the help of the Holy Spirit, it tends to reinforce our own prejudices and rock-hard doctrinal positions. We end up merely finding ammunition for what we already believe. We become so spiritually proud, so convinced of our own positions, that the Spirit is hindered in helping us to grow in the things of God.
Jim Cymbala
The key is not money organization, cleverness, or education. Are you and I seeing the results Peter saw? Are we bringing thousands of men and women to Christ the way he did? If not, we need to get back to His power source.
Jim Cymbala
God nowhere asks anyone to have a large church. He only calls us to do his work, proclaiming his Word to people he loves under anointing power of the Holy Spirit to produce results that only he can bring about.

The reason other churches don't grow: Jim, the truth is, I couldn't have a real prayer meeting in my church. I'd be embarrassed at the smallness of the crowd...

We need to realize that the promises that overflow our Bibles will overflow into our own lives only as we appropriate them through prayer.
Jim Cymbala
Persistent calling upon the name of the Lord breaks through every stronghold of the devil, for nothing is impossible with God. For Christians in these troubled times there is simply no other way.
Jim Cymbala
People pay attention when they see that God actually changes persons and sets them free. When a new Christian stands up and tells how God has revolutionized his or her life, no one dozes off. When someone is healed or released from a life-controlling bondage, everyone takes notice.
Jim Cymbala
To be a Christian, you can’t go with the flow. You have to go by the Word of God.
Jim Cymbala
The main thing that God asks for is our attention.
Jim Cymbala
The old saying is true: If you have only the Word, you dry up. If you have only the Spirit, you blow up. But if you have both, you grow up.
Jim Cymbala
When we sincerely turn to God, we will find that His church always moves forward, not backward
Jim Cymbala
Oh, how we need to wake up to the fact that the Holy Spirit’s blessing and power is the key to everything.
Jim Cymbala
When we see only what we want to see in the Bible, it loses all power to transform us.
Jim Cymbala
Prayer cannot truly be taught by principles and seminars and symposiums. It has to be born out of a whole environment of felt need. If I say, I ought to pray, I will soon run out of motivation and quit the flesh is too strong. I have to be driven to pray.
Jim Cymbala
I have since learned that the most mature believer is the one who is bent over, leaning most heavily on the Lord, and admitting his total inability to do anything without Christ. The greatest Christian is not the one who has achieved the most but rather the one who has received the most.

For all of us involved in preaching the gospel, performing music, publishing Christian materials, and all the rest, there is an uncomfortable message here: Jesus is not terribly impressed with religious commercialism
Jim Cymbala
The birth of the church was during a prayer meeting, not preaching, not singing, but prayer.
Jim Cymbala
He (God) is not looking for smart people, because He is the smart one. All he wants are people simple enough to trust him.
Jim Cymbala
Anything, and I mean anything, becomes a blessing if it drives us to prayer.
