Spread out your petition before God, and then say, "Thy will, not mine, be done." The sweetest lesson I have learned in God's school is to let the Lord choose for me.
The work of the Spirit is to impart life, to implant hope, to give liberty, to testify of Christ, to guide us into all truth, to teach us all things, to comfort the believer, and to convict the world of sin.
The grand question of life is, Is my name written in heaven?
Whatever you love more than God is your idol.
I cannot convert men; I can only proclaim the Gospel
We can stand affliction better than we can prosperity, for in prosperity we forget God.
I firmly believe that the moment our hearts are emptied of pride and selfishness and ambition and self-seeking and every thing that is contrary to God's law, the Holy Ghost will come and fill every corner of our hearts; but if we are full of pride and conceit and ambition and self-seeking and pleasure and the world, there is no room for the Spirit of God; and I believe many a man is praying to God to fill him when he is full already with something else.
Every great movement of God can be traced to a kneeling figure.
If God is your partner, make your plans BIG!
When I first became a Christian I thought I would be glad when I got farther on, and got established. I thought I would be so strong and there would not be any danger; but the longer I live, the more danger I see there is. The only hope of any Christian...is to keep hold of Christ.
When a man is filled with the Word of God you cannot keep him still, If a man has got the Word, he must speak or die.
Let us expect that God is going to use us. Let us have courage and go forward, looking to God to do great things.

I believe Satan exists for two reasons: first, the Bible says so, and second, I've done business with him.
Many a professing Christian is a stumbling-block because his worship is divided. On Sunday he worships God; on weekdays God has little or no place in his thoughts.
Small numbers make no difference to God. There is nothing small if God is in it.
More depends on my walk than talk.
A Christian in the world is one thing, and the world in a Christian is quite another thing. A ship in the water is all right, but when the water gets in the ship, it is quite a different thing.
God never made a promise that was too good to be true.
A man ought to live so that everybody knows he is a Christian... and most of all, his family ought to know.
There is no true prayer without confession. As long as we have unconfessed sin in our soul, we are not going to have power with God in prayer. He says if we regard iniquity in our hearts, He will not hear us, much less answer. As long as we are living in any known sin, we have no power in prayer. God is not going to hear it.
