The word of God is our only standard, and the Holy Spirit our only teacher.

The greater the difficulty to be overcome, the more will it be seen to the glory of God how much can be done by prayer and faith.

When sight ceases, it is the time for faith to work. The greater the difficulties, the easier it is for faith. As long as human possibilities for success remain, faith does not accomplish things as easily as when all natural prospects fail.

The joy which answers to prayer give, cannot be described; and the impetus which they afford to the spiritual life is exceedingly great.

The only way to learn strong faith is to endure great trials.

If we say we trust in Him, but in reality do not, then God, taking us at our word, lets us see that we do not really confide in Him, and hence failure arises.

God judges what we give by what we keep.
