Not often, but every once in a while, God brings us to a major turning point — a great crossroads in our life.

When a man is born from above, the life of the Son of God is born in him, and he can either starve that life or nourish it. Prayer is the way the life of God is nourished. Our ordinary views of prayer are not found in the New Testament. We look upon prayer as a means of getting things for ourselves; the Bible's idea of prayer is that we may get to know God Himself.

Sanctification means more than being freed from sin. It means the deliberate commitment of myself to the God of my salvation, and being willing to pay whatever it may cost.

Before God can use a man greatly he must wound him deeply.

No love of the natural heart is safe unless the human heart has been satisfied by God FIRST

Be persistent with your disturbance until you get face to face with the Lord himself. Don't deify common sense.

The reason we see hypocrisy and fraud and unreality in others is because they are all in our own hearts. The great characteristic of a saint is humility-Yes, all those things and other evils would have been manifested in me but for the grace of God, therefore I have no right to judge.
