Talking to men for God is a great thing, but talking to God for men is greater still.
The greatest thing anyone can do for God or man is pray.
The spirit of Christ is the spirit of missions. The nearer we get to Him, the more intensely missionary we become.
The Church must send or the church will end.
Tell the students to give up their small ambitions and come eastward to preach the gospel of Christ.
We talk of the second coming, half the world has never heard of the first.
Give me one hundred preachers who fear nothing but sin and desire nothing but God, and I care not whether they be clergymen or laymen, they alone will shake the gates of Hell and set up the kingdom of Heaven upon Earth.
The best remedy for a sick church is to put it on a missionary diet.
If ten men are carrying a log - nine of them on the little end and one at the heavy end - and you want to help, which end will you lift on?
The history of missions is the history of answered prayer. From Pentecost to the Haystack meeting in New England and from the days when Robert Morrison landed in China to the martyrdom of John and Betty Stam, prayer has been the source of power and the secret of spiritual triumph.

If the Great Commission is true, our plans are not too big; they are too small.

I had utterly abandoned myself to Him. Could any choice be as wonderful as His will? Could any place be safer than the center of His will? Did not He assure me by His very presence that His thoughts toward us are good, and not evil? Death to my own plans and desires was almost deliriously delightful. Everything was laid at His nail-scarred feet, life or death, health or illness, appreciation by others or misunderstanding, success or failure as measured by human standards. Only He himself mattered.

When I get to China, I will have no claim on any one for anything. My claim will be alone in God and I must learn before I leave England to move men through God by prayer alone.
The concern for world evangelization is not something tacked on to a man's personal Christianity, which he may take or leave as he chooses. It is rooted in the character of the God who has come to us in Christ Jesus. Thus, it can never be the province of a few enthusiasts, a sideline or a specialty of those who happen to have a bent that way. It is the distinctive mark of being a Christian.
If God wills the evangelization of the world, and you refuse to support missions, then you are opposed to the will of God.
The church that does not evangelize will fossilize.
God isn't looking for people of great faith, but for individuals ready to follow Him
