Christians should live in the world, but not be filled with it. A ship lives in the water; but if the water gets into the ship, she goes to the bottom. So Christians may live in the world; but if the world gets into them, they sink.
Moses spent forty years thinking he was somebody; forty years learning he was nobody; and forty years discovering what God can do with a nobody.
God doesn't expect the impossible from us. He wants us to expect the impossible from Him!
The Bible was not given for our information but for our transformation.
I have never met a man who has given me as much trouble as myself.
Out of 100 men, one will read the Bible, the other 99 will read the Christian.
Give your life to God; he can do more with it than you can!
Everybody wants to enjoy heaven after they die, but they don't want to be heavenly-minded while they live.
I'd rather be able to pray than to be a great preacher; Jesus Christ never taught his disciples how to preach, but only how to pray.
I prayed for Faith, and thought that some day Faith would come down and strike me like lightning. But Faith did not seem to come. One day I read in the tenth chapter of Romans, 'Now Faith cometh by hearing, and hearing by the Word of God'. I had closed my Bible, and prayed for Faith. I now opened my Bible, and began to study, and Faith has been growing ever since.
We are told to let our light shine, and if it does, we won't need to tell anybody it does. Lighthouses don't fire cannons to call attention to their shining- they just shine.
Joy is love exalted; peace is love in response; long-suffering is love enduring; gentleness is love in society; goodness is love in action; faith is love on the battlefield; meekness is love in tough situations; and temperance is love in training.
The Bible will keep you from sin, or sin will keep you from the Bible.
There will be no peace in any soul until it is willing to obey the voice of God.
Before we pray that God would fill us, I believe we ought to pray Him to empty us.
The Scriptures were not given to increase our knowledge, but to change our lives.
God will not accept a divided heart. He must be absolute monarch. There is not room in your heart for two thrones. You cannot mix the worship of the true God with the worship of any other god more than you can mix oil and water. It cannot be done. There is not room for any other throne in the heart if Christ is there. If worldliness should come in, godliness would go out.
Excuses are the cradle ... that Satan rocks men off to sleep in.
Moses spent forty years in the king's palace thinking that he was somebody; then he lived forty years in the wilderness finding out that without GOD he was a nobody; finally he spent forty more years discovering how a nobody with GOD can be a somebody.
Some people think God does not like to be troubled with our constant coming and asking. The way to trouble God is not to come at all.
There is no greater honour than to be the instrument in God's hands of leading one person out of the kingdom of Satan into the glorious light of Heaven.
He who kneels the most, stands the best.
Happiness is caused by things that happen around me, and circumstances will mar it; but joy flows right on through trouble; joy flows in the night as well as in the day; joy flows through persecution and opposition. It is an unceasing fountain bubbling up in the heart; a secret spring the world can't see and doesn't know anything about.
What makes the Dead Sea dead? Because it is all the time receiving, never giving out anything. Why is it that many Christians are cold? Because they are all the time receiving, never giving out anything.
In our prayers, we talk to God, in our Bible study, God talks to us, and we had better let God do most of the talking.
