“I can write about prayer, you can read about prayer, but sooner or later you have to fall to your knees and just plain pray. Then, and only then, will you begin to operate in the vein of God’s miracle-working ways.”

I’m praying to the God who has always been faithful to me, who has never let me down no matter how frightened I was or how difficult the situation looked.

He [God] wants us to talk to him as to a friend or father – authentically, reverently, personally, earnestly.

And when enough churches are thriving, you can affect a region, a country, and eventually the entire world with the positive, life-changing power of Jesus Christ and the redeeming and restoring work of his people.

Most unmarried people have no idea what it takes to make a marriage work; they grossly underestimate the price people have to pay to build long-term, mutually satisfying relationships.

If you’re a serious minded leader, you will read. You will read all you can. You will read when you feel like it, and you will read when you don’t.

Nothing on earth has greater potential to change lives and carry out His kingdom work in your community, than your local church.

Our minds, like the needle in that compass, can focus on a variety of subjects throughout the day. But in the end, when they’re left alone to settle, they’ll focus on the objects of our greatest affection.

Don’t steamroll your way into a conversation before establishing any relational credibility.

Many leadership problems are driven by low self-awareness.

Leadership grit begets grit. Lead by example.

We live in a world that is crying out for better leadership.

People won’t give their best unless their leader challenges them to do so.

And they fail to understand that the only people with the strength to pay that price are those who have plumbed the depths of their relationship with God, and have dealt with their own brokenness.

Nothing that matters in this world happens unless leaders lead it.

The best gift you can give a human being is an introduction to a God who loves them.

People join organizations, they leave managers.

I’m glad I brought this course, this monster, to its knees.

The spirit is what guides my life, and I’m humbly on my knees in thanks for guidance and direction every day. But God is not something to be preached, it’s something to be lived.

I’ve been up, down, trying to get the feeling again. All around, trying to get the feeling again. The one that makes me shiver, made my knees start to quiver.

You can’t just tip your hat to Jesus; you must bow your knee.

Endure and overcome. Pay no heed to what others have done. Unless they have achieved unspeakable things. Unless they have vision, see the way you see. Rather die on your sword a hero, than die on your knees.

When you stumble and fall on your knees, it does not mean you are weak. The only important is your braveness while you stand up again and face it.

I would rather die standing up to live life on my knees.

When a women awakens, she bows to no man. she can even bring the heavens to their knees. you are a woman, know your power.
