Charles Stanley quotes about
faith religious prayer
God allows us to dace difficulties so that our faith will be stretched and refined. The trials we face provide an excellent opportunity for us to declare our dependence on God and not on ourselves. The way we win the battle with discouragement is by humbling ourselves before God and telling Him that we need Him. There is only one way to do this, and it is through prayer.
differences law grace
Relationship is the difference between grace and law.
spiritual victory knees
Whatever brings you to your knees in weakness carries the greatest potential for your personal success and spiritual victory.
wisdom jesus son
God has loved you since before you were born-so much so that 2,000 years ago, He sent His Son Jesus to die in your place.
prayer two people
[Prayer] is the link between God's inexhaustible resources and people’s needs...God is the source of power, but we are the instrument He uses to link the two together.
believe goal achieve
Believing you can achieve a goal is vital to reaching a goal.
With God, there is always a future.
men praying
A man can preach no better than he prays.
children giving-up perfect
In giving us children, God places us in a position of both leadership and service. He calls us to give up our lives for someone else's sake - to abandon our own desires and put our child's interests first. Yet, according to His perfect design, it is through this selflessness that we can become truly fulfilled.
ideas people want
People don't like the idea of consequences. They want to be able to live their life freely and do what they want to do without any consequences. And we know that's just not the way life is.
inspirational reading important
I would never discredit reading the Scriptures, but it is important to meditate on it.
prayer thinking order
Stop for a minute and think about how you typically interact with God. If prayer time is dominated by your own talking, some adjustments may be in order. Just as the Lord spoke to David, God also has many things to say to you, if you'll simply let Him speak.
leadership steps arrogant
God will never direct us to be prideful, arrogant and unforgiving, immoral or slothful or full of fear. We step into these things because we are insensitive to the leadership of the Holy Spirit within us.
pride feelings want
No one enjoys feeling weak, whether it is emotionally, spiritually or physically. There is something within the human spirit that wants to resist the thought of weakness. Many times this is nothing more than our human pride at work. Just as weakness carries a great potential for strength, pride carries an equally great potential for defeat.
