Frequently the enemy entices Christians to harbor an unforgiving spirit - a very common symptom indeed among God's children. Such bitterness and fault-finding and enmity inflict a severe blow upon spiritual life.

More quotes by Watchman Nee
The sight of any trouble strikes terror into the heart of those who do not have faith, but those who trust Him say, ‘Here comes my food.!
Watchman Nee
God has supplied all my needs and has not failed me once.
Watchman Nee
Negligence in prayer withers the inner man. Nothing can be a substitute for it, not even Christian work. Many are so preoccupied with work that they allow little time for prayer. Hence they cannot cast out demons. Prayer enables us first inwardly to overcome the enemy and then outwardly to deal with him.
Watchman Nee
All satanic works are performed from the outside inward all divine works from the inside outward.
Watchman Nee
From the evening I was saved, I began to live a new life, for the life of the eternal God had entered into me.
Watchman Nee
Nowadays Christians appear to treat prayer as a means to accomplish their aims and ideas. If they possessed just a little deeper understanding, they would recognize that prayer is but man uttering to God what is God's will.
Watchman Nee
The devil abhors light and truth because these remove the ground of his working.
Watchman Nee
If Christ lives in us, we will rejoice in everything, and we will thank and praise the Lord. We will say, 'Hallelujah! Praise the Lord' forever.
Watchman Nee
It is a fact that the Lord Jesus has already died for you. It is also a fact that you have already died with the Lord Jesus. If you do not believe in your death with Christ, you will not be able to receive the effectiveness of death with Him - freedom from sin.
Watchman Nee
If the mind is open the individual will soon perceive the preciousness of a truth which initially appeared rather dull to him but now is illumined by the spirit's light.
Watchman Nee
The note of hallelujah must never be in short supply in the spirit of the believer.
Watchman Nee
Only as they cease to seek anything by themselves and only as they take the position of the teachable shall they be taught by the Spirit truth which they are able to digest.
Watchman Nee
In order for the inner man to be strengthened with power through the Holy Spirit, the children of God must discharge their responsibility. They need to yield specifically to the Lord, forsake every doubtful aspect in their life, be willing to obey fully God's will, and believe through prayer that He will flood their spirit with His power.
Watchman Nee
May the things of this world so lose their power over us that we do not in the slightest wish to be 'worldly' nay, we even delight in not remaining 'in the world.'
Watchman Nee
Henceforth we are dead to everything pertaining to ourselves and alive to His Spirit alone. This requires our exercising faith.
Watchman Nee
It is important to receive God's arrangement in the circumstances. This arrangement is the discipline of the Holy Spirit. To escape God's arrangement just one time is to lose an opportunity to have our capacity enlarged. A believer can never be the same after passing through suffering.
Watchman Nee
God is not seeking a display of my Christ-likeness , but a manifestation of His Christ.
Watchman Nee
If one's conscience is willing to confess whatever sins have been committed, including the sin of unbelief, it will be sorrowful in a godly way, earnestly desiring the mercy of God.
Watchman Nee
A characteristic of the flesh is its fickleness: it alternates between Yes and No and vice versa. But the will of God is: Walk not according to the flesh (not even for a moment) but according to the Spirit.
Watchman Nee
And it is through conflict that God induces the believer to seek and to grasp total triumph in Christ.
