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

Constantly practice the habit of inwardly gazing upon God. You know that something inside your heart sees God. Even when you are compelled to withdraw your conscious attention in order to engage in earthly affairs, there is within you a secret communion always going on.

If JESUS cannot control you, HE cannot save you. And if HE cannot control ALL of you HE cannot control any of you.

My aim each day is to adore God more than anything else.

Without doubt the emphasis in Christian teaching today should be on worship. There is little danger that we shall become merely worshipers and neglect the practical implications of the gospel. No one can long worship God in spirit and in truth before the obligation to holy service becomes too strong to resist. Fellowship with God leads straight to obedience and good works. That is the divine order and it can never be reversed.

I want the presence of God Himself, or I don't want anything at all to do with religion... I want all that God has or I don't want any.

An honest man with an open Bible and a pad and pencil is sure to find out what is wrong with him very quickly.
