True spiritual life depends not on probing our feelings and thoughts from dawn to dusk but on 'looking off' to the Savior!

We may be forced to consume considerable time before the spirit cooperates. For example, God would like to enlarge the scope of our prayer to include the nations in order to defeat all the behind-the-scene works of Satan. Or He may want us to intercede for all sinners worldwide for the entire church.

If we just had more revelation of what we already have, there would be far less prayers and far more praise.

We work because we have not seen the work of Christ.

Oh, Lord, you have indeed been gracious to me.

Baptism is an outward expression of an inward faith.

God is not seeking a display of my Christ-likeness , but a manifestation of His Christ.
