The child of God ought to confess his weakness that he does not know how to pray, and petition the Holy Spirit to teach him.

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

Frequently what we say is rest is merely laziness. Our body requires respite and so does our mind and spirit. But a person should never rest because of a laziness which arises from the evil nature in his emotion. How often laziness and emotional distaste for work join to employ physical fatigue as a cover-up.

Do not be impatient for impatience is of the flesh. Do not try different methods because they are useful solely in helping the flesh. We must distrust the flesh entirely.

Eternal life means more than mere future blessing to be enjoyed by believers; it is equally a kind of spiritual ability.

The Christian experience, from start to finish, is a journey of faith.

I need forgiveness for my sins, but I need also deliverance from the power of sin... I appreciate the blessed fact of God's forgiveness, but I want something more than that: I want deliverance. I need forgiveness for what I have done, but I need also deliverance from what I am.
