Ease and luxury, such as our affluence brings today, do not make for maturity; hardship and struggle however do.
J. I. PackerThere is no peace like the peace of those whose minds are possessed with full assurance that they have known God, and God has known them, and that this relationship guarantees Godโs favor to them in life, through death and on for ever.
J. I. PackerRevival is the visitation of God which brings to life Christians who have been sleeping and restores a deep sense of God's near presence and holiness. Thence springs a vivid sense of sin and a profound exercise of heart in repentance, praise, and love, with an evangelistic outflow.
J. I. PackerThe more you praise, the more vigor you will have for prayer; and the more you pray, the more matter you will have for praise.
J. I. Packer
