Of all forms of deception self-deception is the most deadly, and of all deceived persons the self-deceived are the least likely to discover the fraud.

Refuse to be average. Let your heart soar as high as it will.

The Spirit-filled life is not a special, deluxe edition of Christianity. It is part and parcel of the total plan of God for His people.

It requires a serious mind and a determined heart to pray past the ordinary into the unusual.

A Christian should put away all defense and make no attempt to excuse himself either in his own eyes or before the Lord. Whoever defends himself will have himself for his defense, and he will have no other. But let him come defenseless before the Lord and he will have for his defender no less than God Himself.

Always the most revealing thing about the church is her idea of God.

We Christians must simplify our lives or lose untold treasures on earth and in eternity.
