No matter how long we have been walking with Jesus, we need to hear again, do not love the world.

Holiness is the sum of a million little things — the avoidance of little evils and little foibles, the setting aside of little bits of worldliness and little acts of compromise, the putting to death of little inconsistencies and little indiscretions, the attention to little duties and little dealings, the hard work of little self-denials and little self-restraints, the cultivation of little benevolences and little forbearances.

Sanctification will be drudgery unless we believe that holiness is possible and that it is pleasing to God.

To start the day without prayer is to suggest the devil is feeble, God is irrelevant, and we can handle things on our own.

Try this New Year's resolution: I won't check my phone, my tablet, or my computer until I've first read a chapter in my Bible.

The goal of revelation is not information only, but affection, worship, and obedience. Christ in us will be realized only as we drink deeply of the Bible, which is God's word outside of us

We do not truly know what love is unless we know Christ.
