We’ve got to get past this idea that God is most glorified when we’re rich, healthy and wealthy and we go, “Isn’t God grand? Look at all He gave me.” Because if anybody joins us in that and says, “Oh, if you love Jesus, you get a house and health and cars? Then I love Jesus too.” Because then all of a sudden you’ve got a different religion. You have the religion of cars and houses, not God.

If you're a beast in the pulpit but a coward in your neighborhood, something has gone wrong.

The commands of God are given, not to rob me of joy, but lead me into the fullness of joy.

What stirs up in my heart is, 'Oh would we see an outpouring of the Holy Spirit.'

God is awesome; he doesn’t need you to be awesome. He wants you to be obedient.
