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.

When God Wants To Move A Mountain, He Does Not Take A Bar Of Iron, But He Takes A Little Worm. The Fact Is, We Have Too Much Strength. We Are Not Weak Enough. It Is Not Our Strength That We Want. One Drop Of God's Strength Is Worth More Than All The World.

We Are Permitted To Draw Upon God's Store Of Grace From Day To Day As We Need It.

There Is No True Prayer Without Confession. As Long As We Have Unconfessed Sin In Our Soul, We Are Not Going To Have Power With God In Prayer.
