Warren W. Wiersbe
We do not understand and then obey: that is instruction. We obey by faith, and then we understand: that is illumination.
Warren W. Wiersbe
God has ordained that His people live by promises and not by explanations.
Warren W. Wiersbe
Nothing paralyzes our lives like the attitude that things can never change. We need to remind ourselves that God can change things. Outlook determines outcome. If we see only the problems, we will be defeated but if we see the possibilities in the problems, we can have victory.
Warren W. Wiersbe
The past can be a rudder that guides you or an anchor tha hinders you. Leave your mistakes with God and look to the future by faith.
Warren W. Wiersbe
If you are going to live by faith, then expect your faith to be tested. A faith that can't be tested can't be trusted.

Warren W. Wiersbe
If life is to have meaning, and if God's will is to be done, all of us have to accept who we are and what we are, give it back to God, and thank Him for the way He made us. What I am is God's gift to me what I do with it is my gift to Him.
Warren W. Wiersbe
Do you need help today? Lift up your hands to the Lord in supplication and in expectation, and soon you will lift up your hands in jubilation and celebration.
Warren W. Wiersbe
The way we respond to criticism pretty much depends on the way we respond to praise. If praise humbles us, then criticism will build us up. But if praise inflates us, then criticism will crush us and both responses lead to our defeat.
Warren W. Wiersbe
The mind grows by taking in, but the heart grows by giving out.
Warren W. Wiersbe
If we see only the problems, we will be defeated but if we see the possibilities in the problems, we can have victory.
Warren W. Wiersbe
The most miserable prison in the world is the prison we make for ourselves when we refuse to show mercy.
Warren W. Wiersbe
Daniel gave all the glory to God he took none of it for himself. There is no limit to what God will do for the believer who will let God have all the glory.
Warren W. Wiersbe
Most Christians are being crucified on a cross between two thieves: Yesterday's regret and tomorrow's worries.
Warren W. Wiersbe
People who walk by faith don't see obstacles, they see opportunities.
Warren W. Wiersbe
We must never mistake the process for the result...there is suffering but this is only the process. God isn't going to stop with the process He wants to produce the final result. Suffering leads to glory shame leads to honor weakness leads to power. This is God's way of doing things.
Warren W. Wiersbe
In our universe there is God and there are people and things. We were made so that we should worship God, love people and use things. However if we worship ourselves, we will ignore God, start loving things and begin to use people.
Warren W. Wiersbe
If you take care of yourself and walk with integrity, you may be confident that God will deal with those who sin against you. Above all, don't give birth to sin yourself, rather, pray for those who persecute you. God will one day turn your persecution into praise.
Warren W. Wiersbe
