True obedience is the refusal to compromise in any regard our relationship with God, regardless of the consequences.
Prayer will become effective when we stop using it as a substitute for obedience.
We must of necessity be servant to someone, either to God or to sin. The man who surrenders to Christ exchanges a cruel slave driver for a kind and gentle master whose yoke is easy and whose burden is light.
The Word of God well understood and religiously obeyed is the shortest route to spiritual perfection. And we must not select a few favorite passages to the exclusion of others. Nothing less than a whole Bible can make a whole Christian.
If we make provision for sinning tomorrow, we will be sinning tomorrow.
What then are we to do about our problems? We must learn to live with them until such time as God delivers us from them...we must pray for grace to endure them without murmuring. Problems patiently endured will work for our spiritual perfecting. They harm us only when we resist them or endure them unwillingly.
Christianity is hard when we try to serve God in man's way instead of serving God in God's way.
To be entirely safe from the devil's snares the man of God must be completely obedient to the Word of the Lord. The driver on the highway is safe, not when he reads the signs but when he obeys them.
Regret for a sinful past will remain until we truly believe that for us in Christ that sinful past no longer exists.
Those who seek the deeper Christian life and those who want the riches that are in Christ Jesus the Lord seek no place, no wealth, no things, only Christ.
Holiness has nothing to do with what we know and everything to do with Who we know.
Refuse to be average. Let your heart soar as high as it will.
The Christian woman should remember that she cannot buy true attractiveness; that radiance which really shines forth in beauty is of the heart and spirit and not of the body.
God is looking for men in whose hands His glory is safe.
When we yield ourselves completely to God, He gives Himself completely to us.
Compare yourself only with Jesus.
You can be straight as a gun barrel theologically, and as empty as one spiritually.
Many Christians are satisfied with their destination but they neglect the journey.
I want to live so fully in the Spirit that...every act of my life may be an act of worship.
I claim the holy right to disappoint men in order to avoid disappointing God.
God must do everything for us. Our part is to yield and trust
As long as we think we own anything, that thing owns us. As soon as we know that we own nothing, then God owns us.
The true follower of Christ will not ask, "If I embrace this truth, what will it cost me?" Rather he will say, "This is truth. God help me to walk in it, let come what may!"
God is looking for those with whom He can do the impossible - what a pity that we plan only the things that we can do by ourselves.
God may allow His servant to succeed when He has disciplined him to a point where he does not need to succeed to be happy. The man who is elated by success and is cast down by failure is still a carnal man. At best his fruit will have a worm in it.
