More quotes by Martyn Lloyd-Jones
The ultimate cause of spiritual depression is unbelief. For if it were not for unbelief, even the devil could do nothing. It is because we listen to the devil instead of listening to God that we go down before him and fall before his attacks.
Martyn Lloyd-Jones
We need less travelling by jet plaes from congress to congress... but more kneeling and praying and pleading to God to have mercy on us, more crying to God to arise and scatter his enemies and make himself known.
Martyn Lloyd-Jones
The Gospel is open to all the most respectable sinner has no more claim on it than the worst.
Martyn Lloyd-Jones
Be still, and know that I am God. We must not interpret that 'Be still' in a sentimental manner. Some regard it as a kind of exhortation to us to be silent but it is nothing of the sort. It means, 'Give up -or 'Give in' and admit I am God'. God is addressing people who are opposed to Him.
Martyn Lloyd-Jones
If you can explain what is happening in a church, apart from the sovereign act of God, it is not revival.
Martyn Lloyd-Jones
The devil's one object is so to depress God's people that he can go to the man of the world and say: There are God's people. Do you want to be like that?
Martyn Lloyd-Jones
Have you realized that most of your unhappiness in life is due to the fact that you are listening to yourself instead of talking to yourself?
Martyn Lloyd-Jones
If you look at your past and are depressed it means that you are listening to the devil.
Martyn Lloyd-Jones
You are either a Christian or you are not a Christian you cannot be partly a Christian. You are either dead or alive you are either born or not born.
Martyn Lloyd-Jones
Faith is the refusal to panic.
Martyn Lloyd-Jones
Human will-power alone is not enough. Will-power is excellent and we should always be using it but it is not enough. A desire to live a good life is not enough. Obviously we should all have that desire, but it will not guarantee success.
Martyn Lloyd-Jones
I sometimes think that the very essence of the whole Christian position and the secret of a successful spiritual life is just to realize two things... I must have complete, absolute confidence in God and no confidence in myself.
Martyn Lloyd-Jones
You can have knowledge, and you can be meticulous in your preparation but without the unction of the Holy Spirit you will have no power, and your preaching will not be effective.
Martyn Lloyd-Jones
We should go into His presence as a child goes to his father. We do it with reverence and godly fear, of course, but we should go with a childlike confidence and simplicity.
Martyn Lloyd-Jones
There is nothing which so certifies the genuineness of a man's faith as his patience and his patient endurance, his keeping on steadily in spite of everything.
Martyn Lloyd-Jones
Faith always shows itself in the whole personality.
Martyn Lloyd-Jones
What is the chief end of preaching? I like to think it is this: It is to give men and women a sense of God and His presence.
Martyn Lloyd-Jones
Prayer, in many ways, is the supreme expression of our faith in God.
Martyn Lloyd-Jones
The devil is so subtle that he dominates man and persuades him at the same time that he is not being dominated.
Martyn Lloyd-Jones
The gospel is meant to control and govern everything in our lives.
