Watchman NeeWatchman Nee They must exercise faith in believing God’s estimation of their natural life and must wait patiently for the Holy Spirit to reveal in them what the Bible says of them. Only in this manner will they be led in the way of deliverance.

Watchman NeeWatchman Nee At times it seems we require more grace to lose our wealth than to lose our life!
Watchman NeeWatchman Nee Often Satan injects pride into the believer’s spirit, evoking in him an attitude of self-importance and of self-conceit. He causes him to esteem himself a very outstanding person, one who is indispensable in God’s work. Such a spirit constitutes one of the major reasons for the fall of believers.
Watchman NeeWatchman Nee A person like this is the strongest person. The strongest person is not the one who is able to do something, but the one who is able not to do what he has the power to do.
Watchman NeeWatchman Nee God has supplied all my needs and has not failed me once.
Watchman NeeWatchman Nee We must have a spirit of power towards the enemy, a spirit of love towards men, and a spirit of self-control towards ourselves.
Watchman NeeWatchman Nee Our rest lies in looking to the Lord, not to ourselves.
Watchman NeeWatchman Nee God asks for men who are totally broken and who will follow Him even to death to work for Him.
Watchman NeeWatchman Nee How easily we make things as way, truth, and life. Or, we call hot atmosphere as life, we label clear thought as life.
Watchman NeeWatchman Nee We may be weak, but looking at our weakness will never make us strong.
Watchman NeeWatchman Nee I need forgiveness for my sins, but I need also deliverance from the power of sin… I appreciate the blessed fact of God’s forgiveness, but I want something more than that: I want deliverance. I need forgiveness for what I have done, but I need also deliverance from what I am.
