“So few grow, because so few study.”
– D. L. Moody
“A great many think that we need new measures, new churches, new organs, new choirs, and all these new things. That is not what the Church of God needs today. It is the old power that the apostles had. If we have that in our churches, there will be new life.
“… I heard two or three men stand up and say, ‘We had a new minister last Sunday—the same old minister, but he had got new power,’ and I firmly believe that is what we want today all over America—new ministers in the pulpit and new people in the pews. We want people quickened by the Spirit of God.”
– D.L. Moody
“A great many people are afraid of the will of God, and yet I believe that one of the sweetest lessons that we can learn in the school of Christ is the surrender of our wills to God, letting Him plan for us and rule our lives.”
– D.L. Moody
Jesus is not one of many ways to approach God, nor is He the best of several ways; He is the only way.

It is possible to move men, through God, by prayer alone. — Hudson Taylor
Worship and intercession must go together, the one is impossible without the other. Intercession means that we rouse ourselves up to get the mind of Christ about the one for whom we pray. — Oswald Chambers
Of all the things Christ wants for us, loving Him and focusing our attention on Him are the most important. — Charles Stanley
What you or I want, or anybody else wants, makes no difference whatsoever. It is what it is – by God’s Sovereign Will!
(John MacArthur, Hard to Believe, Nashville, Tenn. Nelson Book s,2004, Page 5)
“There is someone that I love even though I don’t approve of what he does. There is someone I accept though some of his thoughts and actions revolt me. There is someone I forgive though he hurts the people I love the most. That person is……me.” C. S. Lewis
“The vast majority of mankind never gives a thought of gratitude towards God for all His care and blessings.” Donald Gray Barnhouse
“There are times when solitude is better than society, and silence is wiser than speech. We should be better Christians if we were more alone, waiting upon God, and gathering through meditation on His Word spiritual strength for labour in his service. We ought to muse upon the things of God, because we thus get the real nutriment out of them. . . . Why is it that some Christians, although they hear many sermons, make but slow advances in the divine life? Because they neglect their closets, and do not thoughtfully meditate on God’s Word. They love the wheat, but they do not grind it; they would have the corn, but they will not go forth into the fields to gather it; the fruit hangs upon the tree, but they will not pluck it; the water flows at their feet, but they will not stoop to drink it. From such folly deliver us, O Lord. . . .”
― Charles Spurgeon
