We need God in ways we do not know. Don't limit your experience of God to what you can think to ask. Ask for the unknown joy.
John Piper
Image
Prayer as a relationship is probably your best indicator about the health of your love relationship with God. If your prayer life has been slack, your love relationship has grown cold.

I will not waste my life! I will finish my course and finish it well. I will display the Gospel of the grace of God in all I do. I will run my race to the end.” - Paul
John Piper
Image
Without extended, concentrated prayer, the ministry of the Word withers. And when the ministry of the Word declines, faith (Rom. 10:17 Gal. 3:2, 5) and holiness (John 17:17) decline. Activity may continue, but life and power and fruitfulness fade away. Therefore, whatever opposes prayer opposes the whole work of ministry.

When you see Jesus as your Treasure, the Spirit has blown through your heart.

CHRISTIAN LIVING MOVES from what God has freely done for us in Christ to what we should freely do for others.

It isn't sex by itself that makes abortion. It is sex plus covetousness: desiring things that God does not will for us to have because we are not willing to find our satisfaction in him. Illicit sex and unencumbered freedom without children: for these we covet, and abortion is the result.

In EVERY situation and EVERY circumstance of your life, God is always doing a thousand different things that you cannot see and you do not know.
John Piper
Image
O, God of wonder, enlarge my capacity to be amazed at what is amazing, and end my attraction to the insignificant.
John Piper
Image
All that looks like reality to us is dependent on God. There is creation and Creator, nothing more. And creation gets all its meaning and purpose from God.
John Piper
Image
We will wait. We will wait till all is made righteous (glorious) according to the word of God.

Image
Doing things in secret that you are ashamed for others to know is practical atheism. God's knowing doesn't count?
John Piper
Image
The inner essence of worship is cherishing Christ as gain - indeed as more gain than all that life can offer - family, career, retirement, fame, food, friends. The essence of worship is experiencing Christ as gain. Or to use words that we love to use around here: it is savoring Christ, treasuring Christ, being satisfied with Christ.

Oh, how rare are the Christians who speak with a tender heart and have a theological backbone of steel.

We are far too easily pleased.

The only answer in these modern times, as in all other times, is the blood of Christ. When our conscience rises up and condemns us, where will we turn? We turn to Christ. We turn to the suffering and death of Christ—the blood of Christ. This is the only cleansing agent in the universe that can give the conscience relief in life and peace in death.

The infinite reservoir of future grace is flowing back through the present into the ever-growing pool of past grace. The inexhaustible reservoir is invisible except through the promises. But the ever-enlarging pool of past grace is visible and God means for the certainty and beauty and depth to strengthen our faith in future grace.

I am not a missionary, but I have wanted my life to count for the unreached peoples of the world.

God is not an employer looking for employees. He is an Eagle looking for people who will take refuge under his wings.

Don't coast through life without a passion.
