We are not responsible for the circumstances we are in, but we are responsible for the way we allow those circumstances to affect us; we can either allow them to get on top of us or we can allow them to transform us into what God wants us to be.

Oswald Chambers

God is the Great Engineer, creating circumstances to bring about moments in our lives of divine importance, leading us to divine appointments.

The truth is we have nothing to fear and nothing to overcome because He is all in all and we are more than conquerors through Him.

To say that ‘prayer changes things’ is not as close to the truth as saying, ‘prayer changes me and then I change things.’ God has established things so that prayer, on the basis of redemption, changes the way a person looks at things.

If you are going to be used by God, He will take you through a number of experiences that are not meant for you personally at all. They are designed to make you useful in His hands, and to enable you to understand what takes place in the lives of others.

God does not expect us to imitate Jesus Christ; He expects us to allow the life of Jesus to be manifested in our moral flesh.

Don’t plan without God. God seems to have a delightful way of upsetting the plans we have made, when we have not taken Him into account.
