“If we are leading but not closely following Christ, we are misleading.”

If we wait for the needy to walk through our church doors, we may wait a long time. God doesn’t wait for people to come to Him. He goes to them.

You cannot keep doing the same thing, the same way, and keep expecting something different to happen.

God wants to bring victory to a people who recognize who brought it.

When we detach the Word of God from the heart of God, we miss the point of God.

Anyone with the maturity to surrender entirely to God is mature enough for God to use.

Faith is not believing in my own unshakable belief. Faith is believing an unshakable God when everything in me trembles and quakes.

God honors a beautiful blend of gift and grit! He gives the gift, and He expects us to have the grit to practice and learn how to use it effectively.

Every inch of ground we refuse to take with God, we surrender to the enemy.

Sometimes in the contrast of the night, we can best see the glory of God.

Whether we get to avoid pain and suffering or we must persevere in the midst of it, our deliverance comes when we’re dragged from the enemy of our souls to the heart of God.

Spiritual maturity does not mean that we will never make wrong plans. In fact, spiritual maturity often means having the courage to admit we’ve made the wrong plans.

Sometimes a storm in your life is what will blow you to the place you are longing to be.

No sin, no matter how momentarily pleasurable, comforting, or habitual, is worth missing what God has for us.

You haven’t been through one thing that God cannot heal you from.

Ministry to an individual is as mighty an act of God as is ministry to the masses.

If you are still alive, then God is NOT finished with you!

It is not God, but people themselves who shorten their lives by not keeping physically fit.

To those who have as yet not learned the secret of true happiness, which is the joy of coming into the closest relationship with the Maker and Preserver of all things: begin now to study the little things in your own door yard.

As sure as God made black and white, what’s done in the dark will be brought to the light.

I’ve been worrying about God a little bit lately. It seems like he’s been in a bad mood. And I think it has to do with the quality of lovers he’s been getting.

God save us from people who mean well.

From the beginning men used God to justify the unjustifiable.

I feel thankful to God, first and foremost, allowing me to enjoy this ‘smell the roses’ kind of thing.

I am what I am. I love me! And I don’t mean that egotistically – I love that God has allowed me to take whatever it was that I had and to make something out of it.
