Trying to be happy without a sense of God’s presence is like trying to have a bright day without the sun.
What we need very badly these days is a company of Christians who are prepared to trust God as completely now as they know they must do at the last day... It would be better to invite God now to remove every false trust, to disengage our hearts from all secret hiding places and to bring us out into the open where we can discover for ourselves whether or not we actually trust Him. That is a harsh cure for our troubles, but it is a sure one. Gentler cures may be too weak to do the work. And time is running out on us.
My aim each day is to adore God more than anything else.
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.
If your Christianity depends upon a pastor's preaching, then you're a long way from being where you should be.
As long as Christ sits on the throne, every day is a good day and all days are days of salvation.
When men no longer fear God, they transgress His laws without hesitation. The fear of consequences is no deterrent when the fear of God is gone.
Every man is as holy as he really wants to be.
Jesus Christ never thinks about what we have been! He always thinks about what we are going to be.
Walking in humility isn't focusing on what we are NOT; rather, it's declaring what God is.
Nothing bothers the devil more than a Christian delighting in God’s presence.
Religion today is not transforming people; rather it is being transformed by the people. It is not raising the moral level of society; it is descending to society's own level, and congratulating itself that it has scored a victory because society is smilingly accepting its surrender.
Listen to no man who has not listened to God.
God is more concerned with the state of people's hearts than He is with the state of their feelings.
God is never impressed with what a man can do. He is more concerned with what a man is.
The devil is a better theologian than any of us and is a devil still.
To pray without expectation is to misunderstand the whole concept of prayer and relationship with God.
Our problem is that we go from toy to toy rather than from glory to glory.
If you will not worship God seven days a week, you do not worship Him one day a week.
If you have believed but not obeyed, you have postponed your Christian life.
I want to live so fully in the Spirit that...every act of my life may be an act of worship.
Christianity is hard when we try to serve God in man's way instead of serving God in God's way.
We wonder why we don't have faith; the answer is, faith is confidence in the character of God and if we don't know what kind of God God is, we can't have faith.
Why do some persons 'find' God in a way that others do not? Why does God manifest His Presence to some and let multitudes of others struggle along in the half-light of imperfect Christian experience? Of course the will of God is the same for all. He has no favorites within His household. All He has ever done for any of His children He will do for all of His children. The difference lies not with God but with us.
God must do everything for us. Our part is to yield and trust
