Our God is a consuming fire. He consumes pride, lust, materialism, and other sin.
Leonard Ravenhill
Image
Smart men walked on the moon, daring men walked on the ocean floor, but wise men walk with God.

Great eagles fly alone great lions hunt alone great souls walk alone-alone with God. Such loneliness is hard to endure, and impossible to enjoy unless God accompanied. Prophets are lone men they walk alone, pray alone and God makes them alone.

The attitude of the average Christian today is relax and be raptured. But He is coming... and when God gets angry you´ve no idea what it is. Like a thousand volcanoes exploding. He has appointed a day in which He is going to judge the world and the poor blindworld doesn´t know much about it and the poor blind church doesn´t think much about it now.

Thou shalt call his name Jesus. He shall save his people from their sins.

Image
Let the fires go out in the boiler room of the church and the place will still look smart and clean, but it will be cold. The Prayer Room is the boiler room for its spiritual life.
Leonard Ravenhill
Image
God asks the best we have Because He gave the Best He had.
Leonard Ravenhill
Image
The self-sufficient does not pray, the self-satisfied will not pray, the self-righteous cannot pray. No man is greater than his prayer life.
Leonard Ravenhill
Image
To stand before men on behalf of God is one thing. To stand before God on behalf of men is something entirely different.
