“Get on your knees and pray, then get on your feet and work.”

Be believing, be happy, don’t get discouraged. Things will work out.

I challenge every one of you who can hear me to rise to the divinity within you. Do we really realize what it means to be a child of God, to have within us something of the divine nature?

I believe in the principle that I can make a difference in this world. It may be ever so small, but it will count for the greater good.

Live today as if you were going to live forever, for you surely shall.

Life is to be enjoyed, not endured.

We live in a world where knowledge is developing at an ever-accelerating rate. Drink deeply from this ever-springing well of wisdom and human experience.

If you do not choose the kingdom of God, it does not matter what you choose instead.

Gratitude creates the most wonderful feeling. It can resolve disputes. It can strengthen friendships. And it makes us better men and women.

In all of living, have much fun and laughter. Life is to be enjoyed, not just endured.

God will always make a way where there is no way.

Try a little harder to be a little better.

It is imperative that good people, men and women of principle, be involved in the political process; otherwise we abdicate power to those whose designs are almost entirely selfish.

Being humble means recognizing that we are not on earth to see how important we can become, but to see how much difference we can make in the lives of others.

Without hard work, nothing grows but weeds.

Faith in something greater than ourselves enables us to do what we have said we’ll do, to press forward when we are tired or hurt or afraid, to keep going when the challenge seems overwhelming and the course is entirely uncertain.

We seldom get into trouble when we speak softly. It is only when we raise our voices that the sparks fly and tiny molehills become great mountains of contention.

Prayer needs neither learning, wisdom or book knowledge to begin it. It needs nothing but heart and will.

To be prayerless is to be without God, without Christ, without grace, without hope, and without heaven.

I’d rather be able to pray than to be a great preacher; Jesus Christ never taught his disciples how to preach, but only how to pray.

It is not the man that can preach the best that is the most successful, but the man who knows how to get his people together to pray.

Counsel involving right and wrong should never be sought from a man who does not say his prayers.

True prayer is a way of life, not just for use in cases of emergency.

The hardest part of a missionary career is to maintain regular, prayerful Bible study. Satan will always find you something to do, when you ought to be occupied about that – if it is only arranging a window blind!

I was there when God was put on trial. At the end of the trial, they used the word chayav, rather than ‘guilty’. It means ‘He owes us something’. Then we went to pray.
