I want to so live that God doesn't have to have to give me one minute's

The men that have been the most heroic for God have had the greatest devotional lives.

Can any deny that in the modern church setup the main cause of anxiety is money? Yet that which tries the modern churches the most, troubled the New Testament Church the least. Our emphasis is on paying theirs was on praying. When we have paid, the place is taken when they had prayed, the place was shaken!

But have we Holy Ghost power — power that restricts the devil's power, pulls down strongholds, and obtains promises? Daring delinquents will be damned if they are not delivered from the devil's dominion. What has hell to fear other than a God-anointed, prayer-powered church?

The church as we know it today seems a million miles from the New Testament church. That may be a great generalization, but I will stand on it. There is a gulf between our average Christianity and the church of New Testament that makes the Grand Canyon look like a cavity in someone's tooth.

They're called in the Scripture the Beatitudes. You know why they're called the Beatitudes without being prestigious? Because they should be the attitudes of every believer. That's the normal Christian life, not the abnormal Christian life. The normal Christian life is holiness.

Tell me what time you spend alone with God... and I'll tell you how spiritual you are.

There's one thing that life does where ever it goes- it begats life.

Prayer is preoccupation with our needs. Praise is preoccupation with our blessings. Worship is preoccupation with GOD Himself.

Every step you make in Jesus Christ enrages the devil.

The most shattering thought I've ever had is my personal accountability to God one day
Leonard Ravenhill
Image
I believe the place of prayer is not only a place where I lose my burdens, but also a place where I get a burden. He shares my burden and I share His burden. ... To know that burden, we must hear the voice of the Spirit. To hear that voice, we must be still and know that He is God.

Entertainment is the devils substitute for joy, and when you get satisfaction out of that dumb thing, your joy will diminish.

Why in God's name do you expect to be accepted everywhere? How is it the world couldn't get on with the holiest man that ever lived, and it can get on with you and me?
