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.

God cannot use a man or woman greatly until he wounds them deeply.

Pseudo faith always arranges a way out to serve in case God fails it. Real faith knows only one way and gladly allows itself to be stripped of any second way or makeshift substitutes. For true faith, it is either God or total collapse.

The best preparation for worship is not a rehearsal, but surrender.

Regret for a sinful past will remain until we truly believe that for us in Christ that sinful past no longer exists.

We ought not to be looking for a place to hide, but a place to give ourselves as an offering to God.

Such words as amen, hallelujah, glory and others of like sacred association are repeated endlessly and meaninglessly in the apparent belief that they have in them some strange power for good. This can be no more than high-grade magic. It will pay us to search our own hearts thoroughly to discover just why we use these words.
