More quotes by Mark Batterson
You are only one prayer away from a dream fulfilled, a promise kept, or a miracle performed.
Mark Batterson
Faith is not logical. But it isn't illogical either. Faith is theological. It does not ignore reality it just adds God into the equation.
Mark Batterson
If you want to see God move make a move.
Mark Batterson
Worship is forgetting about what's wrong with you and remembering what's right with God.
Mark Batterson
If you really believe in the message you're preaching, you want as many people as possible to listen.
Mark Batterson
Each prayer is like a seed that gets planted in the ground. It disappears for a season, but it eventually bears fruit that blesses future generations. In fact, our prayers bear fruit forever.
Mark Batterson
I love to read. I remember hearing that the average author takes two years to write a book. So when I read a book, I feel like I am getting two years of life experiences.
Mark Batterson
Prayer turns ordinary parents into prophets who shape the destinies of their children, grandchildren, and every generation that follows.
Mark Batterson
Have you ever noticed that when you pray, coincidences happen? And when you don't, they don't.
Mark Batterson
Your greatest regret at the end of your life will be the lions you didn't chase. You will look back longingly on risks not taken, opportunities not seized, and dreams not pursued. Stop running away from what scares you most and start chasing the God-ordained opportunities that cross your path.
Mark Batterson
I think you often say more by saying less. And interestingly enough, I mean, Jesus really set the standard. I mean, he could say more with fewer words than anybody. Most of the parables were less than 250 words. And, boy, did he have some one-liners just packed with truth.
Mark Batterson
Instead of dissecting Scripture, we need to let Scripture dissect us our thoughts and attitudes, our dreams and desires, our fears and hopes.
Mark Batterson
Life a life of Spiritual Adventure. Much like a wild goose the Spirit of God cannot be tracked or tamed. An element of danger, an air of unpredictability surround Him. And while the name may sound a little sacrilegious, I cannot think of a better description of what it's like to pursue the Spirit's leading through life.
Mark Batterson
If you want God to do something new in you, you cannot keep doing the same old thing. You have to do something different. And if you do, God will create new capacities within you. There will be new gifts and new revelations. But you've got to pray the price. You'll get out of this what you put into it.
Mark Batterson
We pray as if God’s chief objective is our personal comfort. It’s not. God’s chief objective is His glory.
Mark Batterson
Quit living as if the purpose of life is to arrive safely at death.
Mark Batterson
God doesn't call the qualified, He qualifies the called.
Mark Batterson
God isn't offended by your biggest dreams or boldest prayers. He is offended by anything less. If your prayers aren't impossible to you, they are insulting to God.
Mark Batterson
If we repent, God always recycles our mistakes.
Mark Batterson
We’re too Christian to enjoy sin and too sinful to enjoy Christ. We’ve got just enough Jesus to be informed, but not enough to be transformed.
