“It is all right when God sends us the approval of our fellow men; however, we must never make that approval a motive in our life.”

I cannot understand how any man or woman can believe in the Lord’s coming and not be a missionary, or at least committed to the work of missions with every power of his being.

God’s jewels are often sent us in rough packages and by dark liveried servants, but within we find the very treasures of the King’s palace and the Bridegroom’s Love.

You must have faith in God.

One of the special marks of the Holy Ghost in the Apostolic Church was the spirit of boldness.

All earth-born hopes with time must pass away; prayer grasps eternal things; pray, always pray.

The safe place lies in obedience to God’s Word, singleness of heart and holy vigilance.

We cannot ask in behalf of Christ what Christ would not ask Himself if He were praying.

There is not a command God gives to His children for which He does not provide the enablement for obedience.

Christ rises above all things.

We must surrender ourselves so utterly that we can never own ourselves again. We must hand over self and all its rights in an eternal covenant, and give God the absolute right to own us, control us and possess us forever.

There is no wonder more supernatural and divine in the life of a believer than the mystery and ministry of prayer…the hand of the child touching the arm of the Father and moving the wheel of the universe.

Be brave. Cowards always get hurt. Brave men generally come out unharmed.

The religion of the Bible is wholly supernatural.

Have you ever learned the beautiful art of letting God take care of you and giving all your thought and strength to pray for others and for the kingdom of God? It will relieve you of a thousand cares.

Once a leader delegates, he should show utmost confidence in the people he has entrusted.

When you cannot rejoice in feelings, circumstances or conditions, rejoice in the Lord.

My manner of thinking, so you say, cannot be approved. Do you suppose I care?

If what the heart approves conforms to proper patterns, then even if one’s desires are many, what harm would they be to good order?

My manner of thinking, so you say, cannot be approved. Do you suppose I care? A poor fool indeed is he who adopts a manner of thinking for others!

I cannot help thinking that there is something to admire in everyone, even if you do not approve of them.

The teachers at my school were quite often card-carrying members of the Labour Party and it just was not part of the culture to approve of what the government was doing.

I’ve never had anyone’s approval, so I’ve learned to live without it.

I have smuggled so many ingredients across so many borders, like shallot confit from Thailand, or a new sauce from New Orleans not approved by the FDA.

Bloodletting on my premises that I ain’t approved I take as a f***ing affront. It puts me off my feed.
