If the Christian does not know when God is speaking, he is in trouble at the heart of his Christian life!
It is impossible to worship God and remain unchanged
Jesus taught that your highest priority must be your relationship with Him. If anything detracts you from that relationship, that activity is not from God. God will not ask you to do something that hinders your relationship with Christ.
Teach yourself to thankfully receive all that God gives you as evidence of His love and faithfulness, and then you'll find it easier to trust Him next time.
How you live your life is a testimony of what you believe about God.
To be loved by God is the highest relationship, the highest achievement, and the highest position in life.
When God spoke to Moses and others in the Old Testament, those events were encounters with God. An encounter with Jesus was an encounter with God for the disciples. In the same way an encounter with the Holy Spirit is an encounter with God for you.
Prayer is designed to adjust you to God's will, not to adjust God to your will.
The Christian never works toward victory, he always works FROM victory.
We should thank God for being with us, not ask Him to be with us (this is always given!).
Because God wants to take you in ever-increasing measures to know Him. And the only way you can know Him is by experiencing Him. So He's going to ask you to go with Him in dimensions that require more faith and more activity than you have ever used before. Otherwise you will never grow in your faith in Him. The only way you can grow in your faith in Him is to accept the next assignment which is always greater than the previous one. Don't ever feel that you will get to the place where you'll never be scared half to death.
Our difficulty is not that we don't know God's will. Our discomfort comes from the fact that we do know His will, but we do not want to do it.
The Christian needs to walk in peace, so no matter what happens they will be able to bear witness to a watching world.
If you know that God loves you, you should never question a directive from Him. It will always be right and best. When He gives you a directive, you are not just to observe it, discuss it, or debate it. You are to obey it.
Spiritual leadership is moving people on to God's agenda.
Prayerless leaders are like ship captains without compasses; they can make their best guess at which direction to go, but they have no assurance they are heading the right way. Prayer keeps leaders focused on the one absolutely consistent factor in life - God.
God has a right to interrupt your life. He is Lord. When you accepted Him as Lord, you gave Him the right to help Himself to your life anytime He wants.
A test of your love for God is to examine your love for others.
God is interested in developing your character. At times He lets you proceed, but He will never let you go too far without discipline to bring you back. In your relationship with God, He may let you make a wrong decision. Then the Spirit of God causes you to recognize that it is not God's will. He guides you back to the right path.
Watch to see where God is working and join Him in His work.
Scripture is not a concept; scripture is a person (John 1:1,14). When you stand before the Word of God, you are not merely encountering a concept; you are standing face-to-face with God.
Ultimately, leadership is more about 'being' than 'doing.'
Why is it that when we talk to God, it's called 'prayer,' but when God speaks to us, it's called schizophrenia?
All revival begins, and continues, in the prayer meeting. Some have also called prayer the "great fruit of revival." In times of revival, thousands may be found on their knees for hours, lifting up their heartfelt cries, with thanksgiving, to heaven.
Revival is when God's people return to God and God returns to them, and everyone sees the difference.
You cannot stay where you are and go with God. You cannot continue doing things your way and accomplish God's purpose in His ways. Your thinking cannot come close to God's thoughts. For you to do the will of God, you must adjust your life to Him, His purposes, and His ways
If you have trouble hearing God speak, you are in trouble at the very heart of your Christian experience.
When Holy God draws near in true revival, people come under terrible conviction of sin. The outstanding feature of spiritual awakening has been the profound consciousness of the Presence and holiness of God.
When we hear His call and respond accordingly, there will be no limit to what God can and will do through His people. But if we do not even recognize when He is speaking, we are in trouble at the very heart of our relationship to Him.
It takes intentional effort to tune out every voice except God's.
Wouldn't it be a tragedy to get to the top of the ladder and find you placed it against the wrong wall?
If you have been given a word from God, you must continue in that direction until it comes to pass (even twenty five years like Abraham).
You cannot go with God and stay where you are.
Nothing is more pathetic than having a small character in a big assignment. Many of us don't want to give attention to our character, we just want the big assignment from God.
God's commands are designed to guide you to life's very best. You will not obey Him, if you do not believe Him and trust Him. You cannot believe Him if you do not love Him. You cannot love Him unless you know Him.
If we function according to our ability alone, we get the glory; if we function according to the power of the Spirit within us, God gets the glory.
