We get into captivity because of our foolishness and we are more foolish that we want to admit.

God's purposes and plans will not fail. Before you spend all your prayer time telling Him about yours, ask about His.

Whenever you say 'yes' to anything, there is less of you for something else. Make sure your 'yes' is worth the less.

Sin doesn't make us bad, sin makes us dead. The gospel doesn't make us better, the gospel makes us alive.

It’s easy: You simply follow the trail of your time, your affection, your energy, your money, and your allegiance. At the end of that trail you’ll find a throne; and whatever, or whoever, is on that throne is what’s of highest value to you. On that throne is what you worship.

Even if we don't see it, God is always working underneath the surface, behind the scenes and orchestrating His plans and purposes.

Life only works when Jesus is everything and we are fully submitted to Him.
