To pray with your fists closed means you're hanging onto something. Let it go. Open your hands to God.

One of the greatest foes of the Christian is religious complacency.. Orthodox Christianity has fallen to its present low estate from lack of spiritual desire. Among the many who profess the Christian faith, scarcely one in a thousand reveals any passionate thirst for God.

The man that believes will obey; failure to obey is convincing proof that there is no true faith present. To attempt the impossible God must give faith or there will be none, and He gives faith to the obedient heart only.

I cannot recall, in any of my reading, a single instance of a prophet who applied for the job.

You can't truly rest until every area in your life rests in God.

Faith is a re-directing of our sight, a getting out of the focus of our own vision and getting God into focus.

There is a better way. It is to repudiate our own wisdom and take instead the infinite wisdom of God.
