I Firmly Believe That The Moment Our Hearts Are Emptied Of Pride And Selfishness And Ambition And Self-seeking And Every Thing That Is Contrary To God's Law, The Holy Ghost Will Come And Fill Every Corner Of Our Hearts; But If We Are Full Of Pride And Conceit And Ambition And Self-seeking And Pleasure And The World, There Is No Room For The Spirit Of God; And I Believe Many A Man Is Praying To God To Fill Him When He Is Full Already With Something Else.

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.

Jesus Came From Heaven Down To Earth. He Left All Grandeur Behind Him, He Passed By Palaces And Thrones-to Be Born In A Manger! He Was Born Lowly, That He Might Raise Men Up To God.

If God Tells Us To Do A Thing We Are To Do It; If He Tells Us To Believe A Thing, We Are To Believe It; We Are To Have Faith In God. Have Faith In God, And If God Tells You To Believe A Thing Believe It, And Then You Will Have Peace And Confidence And Joy.

God Has Called Us To Shine, Just As Much As Daniel Was Sent Into Babylon To Shine. Let No One Say That He Cannot Shine Because He Has Not So Much Influence As Some Others May Have.

Take Courage. We Walk In The Wilderness Today And In The Promised Land Tomorrow

The Best Work Usually Meets The Strongest Opposition.

What We Want Is To Be Real. Let Us Not Appear To Be More Than We Are. Don't Let Us Put On Any Cant, Any Assumed Humility, But Let Us Be Real; That Is The Delight Of God. God Wants Us To Be Real Men And Women, And If We Profess To Be What We Are Not, God Knows All About Us. God Hates Sham.

His Is A Loving, Tender Hand, Full Of Sympathy And Compassion.

The Man That Is Popular With The World Is Not A Friend Of Jesus. You Cannot Serve Two Masters. The World Hates Christ, And If You Are A Friend Of The World You Cannot Be A Friend Of His. You May Be Sure That Something Is Wrong With You When Everybody Is Your Friend.

Careful For Nothing, Prayerful For Everything, Thankful For Anything.

Every One Of Our Children Will Be Brought Into The Ark, If We Pray And Work Earnestly For Them.

After We Have Made Our Requests Known To Him, Our Language Should Be, "thy Will Be Done". I Would A Thousand Times Rather That Gods' Will Should Be Done Than My Own.

My Heart Goes Out To You, And I Long To See You All Coming Constantly To God For A Fresh Supply Of Love.

The Resurrection Is The Keystone Of The Arch On Which Our Faith Is Supported. If Christ Has Not Risen, We Must Impeach All Those Witnesses For Lying. If Christ Has Not Risen, We Have No Proof That The Crucifixion Of Jesus Differed From That Of The Two Thieves Who Suffered With Him. If Christ Has Not Risen, It Is Impossible To Believe His Atoning Death Was Accepted.

If God Did Not Want Us To Understand The Book Of Revelation, He Would Not Have Given It To Us At All.

Prayer Does Not Mean That I Am To Bring God Down To My Thoughts And My Purposes, And Bend His Government According To My Foolish, Silly, And Sometimes Sinful Notions. Prayer Means That I Am To Be Raised Up Into Feeling, Into Union And Design With Him; That I Am To Enter Into His Counsel And Carry Out His Purpose Fully.

We Must Have A Warrant For Our Prayers. If We Have Some Great Desire, We Must Search The Scriptures To Find If It Be Right To Ask It.

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.

The Law Can Only Chase A Man To Calvary, No Further.

I Hunted All Through The Four Gospels Trying To Find One Of Christ's Funeral Sermons, But I Couldn't Find Any. I Found He Broke Up Every Funeral He Ever Attended! Death Couldn't Exist Where He Was.

There Is No Use In Running Before You Are Sent; There Is No Use In Attempting To Do God's Work Without God's Power. A Man Working Without This Unction, A Man Working Without This Anointing, A Man Working Without The Holy Ghost Upon Him, Is Losing Time After All.
