I Believe This Is A Mistake A Great Many Of Us Are Making; We Are Trying To Do God's Work With The Grace God Gave Us Ten Years Ago. We Say, If It Is Necessary, We Will Go On With The Same Grace. Now, What We Want Is A Fresh Supply, A Fresh Anointing And Fresh Power, And If We Seek It, And Seek It With All Our Hearts, We Will Obtain It.

No Matter How Low Down You Are; No Matter What Your Disposition Has Been; You May Be Low In Your Thoughts, Words, And Actions; You May Be Selfish; Your Heart May Be Overflowing With Corruption And Wickedness; Yet Jesus Will Have Compassion Upon You. He Will Speak Comforting Words To You; Not Treat You Coldly Or Spurn You, As Perhaps Those Of Earth Would, But Will Speak Tender Words, And Words Of Love And Affection And Kindness. Just Come At Once. He Is A Faithful Friend - A Friend That Sticketh Closer Than A Brother.

God Has Nothing To Say To The Self-righteous.

Salvation Is Worth Working For. It Is Worth A Man's Going Round The World On His Hands And Knees, Climbing Its Mountains, Crossing Its Valleys, Swimming Its Rivers, Going Through All Manner Of Hardship In Order To Attain It. But We Do Not Get It In That Way. It Is To Him Who Believes.

A Good Example Is Far Better Than A Good Precept.

It Is A Wonderful Fact That Men And Women Saved By The Blood Of Jesus Rarely Remain Subjects Of Charity, But Rise At Once To Comfort And Respectability... I Never Saw A Man Who Put Christ First In His Life That Wasn't Successful.

The Best Definition I Can Find Of Faith Is The Dependence Upon The Veracity Of Another. The Bible Definition In The 11th Chapter Of Hebrews Is, 'faith Is The Substance Of Things Hoped For, The Evidence Of Things Not Seen.' In Other Words, Faith Says Amen To Everything That God Says. Faith Takes God Without Any Ifs, If God Says It, Faith Says I Believe It; Faith Says Amen To It.

I'm Not Tired Of The Work... I'm Tired In The Work.

I Find That Many Christians Are In Trouble About The Future; They Think They Will Not Have Grace Enough To Die By. It Is Much More Important That We Should Have Grace Enough To Live By. It Seems To Me That Death Is Of Very Little Importance In The Meantime. When The Dying Hour Comes, There Will Be Dying Grace; But You Do Not Require Dying Grace To Live By.

It May Be That At This Moment Every Battlement Of Heaven Is Alive With The Redeemed. There Is A Sainted Mother Watching For Her Daughter.

To Be Tempted Is Not To Sin. The Strongest Attacks Are Made On The Strongest Forts.

A Man Can No More Take In A Supply Of Grace For The Future Than He Can Eat Enough Today To Last Him For The Next 6 Months, Nor Can He Inhale Sufficient Air Into His Lungs With One Breath To Sustain Life For A Week To Come.

Some People Think God Does Not Like To Be Troubled With Our Constant Coming And Asking. The Way To Trouble God Is Not To Come At All.

If You Were To Spend A Month Feeding On The Precious Promises Of God, You Would Not Be Going About With Your Heads Hanging Down Like Bulrushes, Complaining How Poor You Are; But You Would Lift Up Your Heads With Confidence, And Proclaim The Riches Of His Grace Because You Could Not Help It.

There Will Be No Peace In Any Soul Until It Is Willing To Obey The Voice Of God.

The Fact Is, We Are Leaky Vessels, And We Have To Keep Right Under The Fountain All The Time To Keep Full Of Christ, And So Have Fresh Supply.

This Lost World Will Never Be Reached And Brought Back To Loyalty To God, Until The Children Of God Wake Up To The Fact That They Have A Mission In The World. If We Are True Christians We Should All Be Missionaries.

It Is A Good Deal Better To Have Life In Christ And God Than Any Where Else. I Would Rather Have My Life Hid With Christ In God Than Be In Eden As Adam Was. Adam Might Have Remained In Paradise For 16,000 Years, And Then Fallen, But If Ours Is Hid In Christ, How Safe!

When I Was A Young Man I Heard Henry Barley Say That The World Has Yet To See What God Can Do For A Man Fully Yielded To Him, And I Said I Wanted To Be That Man. But I Can Say Today The World Has Yet To See What God Can Do With A Man Fully Yielded To Him.
