More quotes by 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
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
If you can explain what is happening in a church, apart from the sovereign act of God, it is not revival.
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
To love to preach is one thing to love to whom you preach is quite another.
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 worst thing that can happen to a man is to succeed before he is ready.
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 pray and make your requests made known unto God, and God will do something.' It is not your prayer that is going to do it, it is not you who is going to do it, but God. 'The peace of God that passeth all understanding'-He, through it all, 'will keep your hearts and minds in Christ Jesus'.
Martyn Lloyd-Jones
Prayer, in many ways, is the supreme expression of our faith in God.
Martyn Lloyd-Jones
Faith is the refusal to panic.
Martyn Lloyd-Jones
To be a Christian is not only to believe the teaching of Christ, and to practice it it is not only to try to follow the pattern and example of Christ it is to be so vitally related to Christ that His life and His power are working in us. It is to be in Christ, it is for Christ to be in us.
Martyn Lloyd-Jones
There are powers that can counterfeit almost everything in the Christian life.
Martyn Lloyd-Jones
You must go on to remind yourself of God - who God is, and what God is, and what God has done, and what God has pledged Himself to do.
Martyn Lloyd-Jones
We all tend to go to extremes some rely only on their own preparation and look for nothing more others, as I say, tend to despise preparation and trust to the unction, the anointing and the inspiration of the Spirit alone. But there must be no either/or here it is always both/and. These two things must go together.
Martyn Lloyd-Jones
The very God whom we have offended has Himself provided the way whereby the offense has been dealt with. His anger, His wrath against sin and the sinner, has been satisfied, appeased and He therefore can now thus reconcile man unto Himself.
Martyn Lloyd-Jones
There is nothing more foolish or self-defeating than for a Christian to say that he is not interested in doctrines.
Martyn Lloyd-Jones
The glory of the gospel is that when the church is absolutely different from the world, she invariably attracts it.
Martyn Lloyd-Jones
Grace is favor shown to people who do not deserve any favor at all.
Martyn Lloyd-Jones
...There is a great need of more familiarity with the Scriptures and their teaching in order that we may be crushed to our knees with a sense of humility and be made to cry to God that He would visit us again.
Martyn Lloyd-Jones
