I have since learned that the most mature believer is the one who is bent over, leaning most heavily on the Lord, and admitting his total inability to do anything without Christ. The greatest Christian is not the one who has achieved the most but rather the one who has received the most.

I knew God wanted to do much more...and he would, if we provided good soil in which he could work.

He (God) is not looking for smart people, because He is the smart one. All he wants are people simple enough to trust him.

Let's forget the novelties. If we prevail in prayer, God will do only what he can do. How he does things, when he does them, and in what manner are up to him. The name of Jesus, the power of his blood, and the prayer of faith have never lost their power over the centuries.

I have discovered an astonishing truth. God is attracted to weaknesses.

The key is not money; organization, cleverness, or education. Are you and I seeing the results Peter saw? Are we bringing thousands of men and women to Christ the way he did? If not, we need to get back to His power source.

No matter what I preach or what we claim to believe in our heads, the future will depend upon our times of prayer.
