God sees us in secret, therefore, let, us seek his face in secret. Though heaven be God's palace, yet it is not his prison.

More quotes by Thomas Brooks
Ah, believer, it is only Heaven that is above all winds, storms, and tempests God did not cast man out of Paradise that he might find another paradise in this world.
Thomas Brooks
In a storm there is no shelter like the wings of God.
Thomas Brooks
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
It is not the bee's touching of the flower that gathers honey, but her abiding for a time upon the flower that draws out the sweet. It is not he that reads most, but he that meditates most, that will prove the choicest, sweetest, wisest and strongest Christian.
Thomas Brooks
Your life is short, your duties many, your assistance great, and your reward sure therefore faint not, hold on and hold up, in ways of well-doing, and heaven shall make amends for all
Thomas Brooks
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].
Thomas Brooks
Pleasures seem solid in their pursuit but are mere clouds in the enjoyment.
Thomas Brooks
Cold prayers shall never have any warm answers. God will suit His returns to our requests. Lifeless, services shall have lifeless answers. When men are dull, God will be dumb.
Thomas Brooks
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
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.
Thomas Brooks
It is not he who knows most, nor he who hears most, nor yet he who talks most, but he who exercises grace most, who has most communion with God.
Thomas Brooks
Sin in a wicked man is like poison in a serpent it is in its natural place.
Thomas Brooks
Christ is the sun, and all the watches of our lives should be set by the dial of his motion.
Thomas Brooks
Cold prayers always freeze before they reach heaven .
Thomas Brooks
Satan often paints sin with virtue's colors.
Thomas Brooks
There are no souls in the world that are so fearful to judge others as those that do most judge themselves, nor so careful to make a righteous judgment of men or things as those that are most careful to judge themselves.
Thomas Brooks
Our sins are debts that none can pay but Christ. It is not our tears, but His blood it is not our sighs, but His sufferings, that can testify for our sins. Christ must pay all, or we are prisoners forever.
Thomas Brooks
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
There is no such way to get much grace, as to be thankful for a little grace. He who opens his mouth wide in praise, shall have his heart lled with graces. Ingratitude stops the ear of God, and shuts the hand of God, and turns away the heart of the God of grace and therefore we had need to be thankful for a little grace.
Thomas Brooks
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.
