A spiritual kingdom lies all about us, enclosing us, embracing us, altogether within reach of our inner selves, waiting for us to recognize it. God Himself is here awaiting our response to His presence. This eternal world will come alive to us the moment we begin to reckon upon its reality.
It is either all of Christ or none of Christ! I believe we need to preach again a whole Christ to the world - a Christ who does not need our apologies, a Christ who will not be divided, a Christ who will either be Lord of all or will not be Lord at all!
Very few things in life matter.
One thing the young Christian should be taught as quickly as possible after his conversion is that Jesus Christ is all he needs.
I am looking for the fellowship of the burning heart--for men and women of all generations everywhere who love the Savior until adoration becomes the music of their soul until they don't have to be fooled with and entertained and amused. Jesus Christ is everything, all-in-all.
The man who comes to a right belief about God is relieved of ten thousand temporal problems.
There is no fear in love, but perfect love casteth out fear. Fear is a painful emotion that arises at the thought that we may be harmed or made to suffer. As long as we must trust for survival to our ability to out look or out maneuver the enemy, we have every good reason to be afraid. Fear is torment. To know that love is of God and to enter into the secret place leaning upon the arm of the Beloved, this and only this can cast out fear.
Spiritual Christians look upon the world not as a playground but as a battleground.
I fear that for the most part people are worshiping worship rather than worshiping God and communing with Him.
God expects us to measure the church not against tradition but against the standards & promises of His Word.
If I empty out half of my life, God can only fill half...God will fill as much of us as we allow Him to fill.
Of all forms of deception self-deception is the most deadly, and of all deceived persons the self-deceived are the least likely to discover the fraud.
What I cannot know by reason, I can know by simply believing.
The more fascinated we become with the toys of this world, the more we forget that there's another world to come.
Until we believe that we are as bad as God says we are, we can never believe that He will do for us what He says He will do. Right here is where popular religion breaks down.
Maybe God is calling you to do something extraordinary that isn't on your calendar; something to revive your soul!
We must break the evil habit of ignoring the spiritual. We must shift our interest from the seen to the unseen.
I think a new world will arise out of the religious mists when we approach our Bible with the idea that it is not only a book which was once spoken, but a book which is now speaking.
To treat an imperfect brother (or sister) impatiently is to advertise our own imperfections.
The Bible is the written word of God, and because it is written it is confined and limited by the necessities of ink and paper and leather. The Voice of God, however, is alive and free as the sovereign God is free. 'The words that I speak unto you, they are spirit, and they are life.' The life is in the speaking words. God's word in the Bible can have power only because it corresponds to God's Word in the universe. It is the present Voice which makes the written word powerful. Otherwise it would lie locked in slumber within the covers of a book.
O God and Father, I repent of my sinful preoccupation with visible things. The world has been too much with me. Thou hast been here and I knew it not. I have been blind to Thy Presence. Open my eyes that I may behold Thee in and around me. For Christ's sake, Amen.
Keep your heart with all diligence and God will take care of the universe.
God's Kingdom isn't divided into areas of important people and areas of little people. In God's sight, everyone's needful.
When God brings all things to light, you will discover just how significant you've been in God's plan.
If we insist upon trying to imagine Him, we end with an idol, made not with hands but with thoughts; and an idol of the mind is as offensive to God as an idol of the hand.
