Some of us are like the Dead Sea, always taking in but never giving out, because we are not rightly related to the Lord Jesus.

There is no condition of life in which we cannot abide in Jesus. We have to learn to abide in Him wherever we are placed.

One of the most subtle burdens God ever puts on us as saints is this burden of discernment concerning other souls. He reveals things in order that we may take the burden of these souls before Him and form the mind of Christ about them. It is not that we bring God into touch with our minds, but that we rouse ourselves until God is able to convey His mind to us about the one for whom we intercede.

Christianity is not consistency to conscience or to convictions; Christianity is being true to Jesus Christ.

To say that 'prayer changes things' is not as close to the truth as saying, 'prayer changes me and then I change things.' God has established things so that prayer, on the basis of redemption, changes the way a person looks at things.

The height of the mountaintop is measured by the drab drudgery of the valley.

Prayer is the exercise of drawing on the grace of God.
