Life begets life by its very nature. By the same token, inspired men inspire.

It is much easier to wear a cross than to bear a cross.

The Bible parable says that while men slept, the enemy sowed tares among the wheat. A boy who rises at 4:30 to deliver papers is considered a go-getter, but to urge our young people to rise at 5:30 to pray is considered fanaticism. We must once again wear the harness of discipline. There is no other way.

There's only one proof of the Holy Ghost in your life and that's a holy life.

Gethsemane is where He died the cross is only the evidence.

Every step you make in Jesus Christ enrages the devil.
Leonard Ravenhill
Image
Notice, we never pray for folks we gossip about, and we never gossip about the folk for whom we pray! For prayer is a great deterrent.
Leonard Ravenhill
Image
The most fervent prayer meetings are in hell.

A Christian who isn't praying, is only playing!

Preaching is not a profession, it’s a passion

We need to close every church in the land for one Sunday and cease listening to a man so we can hear the groan of the Spirit which we in our lush pews have forgotten.
