Quote

Many, if not most, Christians begin with the wrong question of who they should vote for rather than the more important question of how they should vote.

Revival is the return of God's manifest presence to His people for the purpose of them renewing their relationship with Him, with each other and for the good of the broader society. It is necessary because much of what God determines to do, or not do, in the world is determined by His relationship to His people.

The primary role of the church is to reflect God's value system in society and to train people in that value system. It's not the government's responsibility, nor are they equipped to do that on the most local level where the need exists.

One of the reasons so many singles are dissatisfied is that they're looking for a change in status to define their significance, rather than finding a purpose in life, granted by God, that gives them significance regardless of the status they're in.

Jesus didn't wait until we got better to die for us. He died when we were in our most unlovely state. The person who doesn't deserve love actually needs love more, not less. If you know someone unworthy of love, that's great! You now have a chance to emulate Christ, because the essence of His love is unconditional.

When you understand the values of God's kingdom, you will best understand His agenda.4 However, it is my conviction that the message of the kingdom, and the values therein, are sorely lacking in understanding today.

My fellow believers, it is time to return to the Book. It is time to look to the one source that holds the answers for how our country should operate, the Bible.

Unless God and His revealed Word is the overarching influencer and rationale over how our electoral decisions are made as believers, then we cannot expect God to be the overarching influencer in our nation.

If God can't get the attention of the church house, He's certainly not going to stop by the White House.

In fact, it is precisely because we have changed books that the chaos in our country has gotten worse than ever before.

Thanksgiving is not just a warm, cozy holiday. It's not merely a time of recreation and relaxation and watching football all day. As we give thanks, we need to put our mind, soul and spirit into our thanks and into our praise.

Because Jesus Christ is a man, He feels what we feel. Because He is God, He can do something about it.

Prayer is the means by which God has established for God's people to invite the spiritual into the physical, and the invisible realm into the visible realm.

Faith is acting like God is telling the truth.

Success is not what you have done compared to what others have done. Success is what you have done compared to what you were supposed to do.

The reason so many believers are struggling is that we have voted in the past asking God to bless our plans rather than casting our votes based on seeking His agenda. We want God to sign off on our decisions rather than us following His.

You entrust your money to banks, God entrusts His money to you. How would you feel if the bank took your money and used it to play the lottery or gamble with it? So, how does God feel?

One day I was in an airport rushing to catch a plane. I was sweating and puffing when I looked to my right and saw a man walking half as fast as I was, but going faster. He was walking on a moving sidewalk. When we walk in the Spirit, eh comes underneath us and bears us along. We're still walking, but we walk dependent on him.
