Prayer crowns God with the honor and glory due to His name, and God crowns prayer with assurance and comfort. The most praying souls are the most assured souls.
Thomas Brooks
Image
When afflictions arrest us, we shall murmur and grumble and struggle until we see that it is God that strikes.
Thomas Brooks
Image
An implicit confession is almost as bad as an implicit faith wicked men commonly confess their sins by wholesale, We are all sinners but the true penitent confesses his sins by retail.
Thomas Brooks
Image
A man's most glorious actions will at last be found to be but glorious sins, if he hath made himself, and not the glory of God, the end of those actions.
Thomas Brooks
Image
Nothing humbles and breaks the heart of a sinner like mercy and love. Souls that converse much with sin and wrath, may be much terrified but souls that converse much with grace and mercy, will be much humbled.

What labor and pains worldlings take to obtain the vain things of this life-to obtain the poor things of this world, which are but shadows and dreams, and mere nothings!
Thomas Brooks
Image
Christ is the sun, and all the watches of our lives should be set by the dial of his motion.

Image
He that puts on a religious habit abroad to gain himself a great name among men, and at the same time lives like an atheist at home, shall at the last be uncovered by God and presented before all the world for a most outrageous hypocrite.

Image
Every thing that a man leans upon but God, will be a dart that will certainly pierce his heart through and through. He who leans only upon Christ, lives the highest, choicest, safest, and sweetest life.
Thomas Brooks
Image
Consider that spiritual safety comes through spiritual unity. Christians united together are difficult to separate, difficult to break, difficult to pick off and destroy. It is when you isolate yourself by disrupting or denying unity that you are most at risk.
Thomas Brooks
Image
He who stands upon his own strength will never stand.
Thomas Brooks
Image
Sin in a wicked man is like poison in a serpent it is in its natural place.
Thomas Brooks
Image
The least sin should humble the soul, but certainly the greatest sin should never discourage the soul, much less should it work the soul to despair. Despairing Judas perished, whereas the murderers of Christ, believing on Him, were saved.
Thomas Brooks
Image
Every man obeys Christ as he prizes Christ, and no otherwise.
Thomas Brooks
Image
Let those be thy choicest companions who have made Christ their chief companion.
Thomas Brooks
Image
Ambition is a gilded misery, a secret poison, a hidden plague, the engineer of deceit, the mother of hypocrisy, the parent of envy, the original of vices, the moth of holiness, the blinder of hearts, turning medicines into maladies, and remedies into diseases.
Thomas Brooks
Image
God's hearing of our prayers doth not depend upon sanctification, but upon Christ's intercession not upon what we are in ourselves, but what' we are in the Lord Jesus both our persons and our prayers are acceptable in the beloved [Eph 1.6].

It is the very nature of grace to make a man strive to be most eminent in that particular grace which is most opposed to his bosom sin.
