strong children inspiration
God had no children too weak, but a great many too strong to make use of.
christian strong firsts
When I first became a Christian I thought I would be glad when I got farther on, and got established. I thought I would be so strong and there would not be any danger; but the longer I live, the more danger I see there is. The only hope of any Christian...is to keep hold of Christ.
strong waiting down-and
'Faith cometh by hearing and hearing by the Word of God' (Rom. 10:17). That is whence faith comes. It is not for me to sit down and wait for faith to come stealing over me with a strong sensation, but is for me to take God at His Word.
strong character humility
Many of the Bible characters fell just in the things in which they were thought to be strongest. Moses failed in his humility, Abraham in his faith, Elijah in his courage, for one woman scared him away to that juniper-tree; and Peter, whose strong point was boldness, was so frightened by a maid, as to deny his Lord.
best-work strongest opposition
The best work usually meets the strongest opposition.
son might mansions
The Son of God passed by the mansions and went down in a manger that He might sympathize with the lowly.
mistake believe heart
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.
facts christ fountain
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.
jesus prayer heart
Let us pray, and as we pray, let us make room for Jesus in our hearts.
eye tears topics
No one should ever preach on the topic of hell without a tear in his eye.
inspiring christian saws
I never saw a fruit-bearing Christian who was not a student of the Bible.
responsibility men people
Some people come to me and say, "Mr. Moody, don't you feel a great responsibility when you come before an audience like this - don't you feel a great weight upon your shoulders?" "Well." I say, "no; I cannot convert men; I can only proclaim the Gospel.
inward looks
Faith is an outward look, not an inward look.
sin forts made
To be tempted is not to sin. The strongest attacks are made on the strongest forts.
