I believe that the greatest form of prayer is praise to God.

I try to speak in everyday language. I feel like God has gifted me to take Bible principles and make them practical.

The Christian religion, though scattered and abroad will in the end gather itself together at the foot of the cross.

Only our individual faith in freedom can keep us free.

The outer passes away; the innermost is the same yesterday, today, and forever.

Now, we can’t stop the devil from coming against us, but we can overcome him each time – if we exercise the authority of Jesus and decide not to put up with him.

God gives the nuts, but he does not crack them.

Faith embraces many truths which seem to contradict each other.

To believe in God is impossible not to believe in Him is absurd.

A man must now swallow more belief than he can digest.

The soldier above all others prays for peace, for it is the soldier who must suffer and bear the deepest wounds and scars of war.

We have not yet reached the goal but… we shall soon, with the help of God, be in sight of the day when poverty shall be banished from this nation.

I’m actually an evangelical atheist, but there is something I recognise about religion: that it gives people a chance to surrender.

Many people when they fall in love look for a little haven of refuge from the world, where they can be sure of being admired when they are not admirable, and praised when they are not praiseworthy.

I’ve been praying that we might have a spiritual awakening. But I think that becomes possible as individuals surrender their lives fresh and anew to Christ.

I thank God I’m myself and for the life I’m given to live and for friends and lovers and beloveds, and I thank God for knowing that all those people have already paid for me.

Every day is a gift from God. There’s no guarantee of tomorrow, so that tells me to see the good in this day to make the most of it.

My word will never be as strong as God’s word. All I am is just a vessel, doing His work.

I don’t let my religious world get too complicated.

Lord Jesus, we come just as we are; this is how we came at first, and this is how we come still, with all our failures, with all our transgressions, with all and everything that is what it ought not to be, we come to Thee.

I believe that each of us comes from the Creator trailing wisps of glory.

Obedience to God is the pathway to the life you really want to live.

Duty cannot exist without faith.

Sure I believe in God and the Devil, but they don’t have to have pitchforks and a long white beard.

Unwearied ceaseless effort is the price that must be paid for turning faith into a rich infallible experience.

I do think there must be some kind of interaction between your living life and the life that goes on from here.

Faith: not wanting to know what is true.

When you make a mistake and the devil comes and tells you ‚You’re no good,‘ you don’t have to take on the guilt and condemnation he wants to put on you. No! You can immediately confess your mistake to God, thank Him for forgiving you and cleansing you with the blood of Jesus, and move forward in the victory of His grace and forgiveness.

I’m grateful for the opportunities God gave me to minister to people in high places; people in power have spiritual and personal needs like everyone else, and often they have no one to talk to.

In prayer, we stand where angels bow with veiled faces. There, even there, the cherubim and seraphim adore before that selfsame throne to which our prayers ascend. And shall we come there with stunted requests and narrow, contracted faith?

It is the test of a good religion whether you can joke about it.

The person you consider ignorant and insignificant is the one who came from God, that he might learn bliss from grief and knowledge from gloom.

God’s dream is that you and I and all of us will realize that we are family, that we are made for togetherness, for goodness, and for compassion.

My understanding of the Scriptures has been made simple by the person of Christ. Christ teaches that God is love.

That God does not exist, I cannot deny, That my whole being cries out for God I cannot forget.

Prayer is not asking. It is a longing of the soul. It is daily admission of one’s weakness. It is better in prayer to have a heart without words than words without a heart.

Fix reason firmly in her seat, and call to her tribunal every fact, every opinion. Question with boldness even the existence of a God; because, if there be one, he must more approve of the homage of reason, than that of blindfolded fear.

White… is not a mere absence of colour; it is a shining and affirmative thing, as fierce as red, as definite as black… God paints in many colours; but He never paints so gorgeously, I had almost said so gaudily, as when He paints in white.

Lord, help my poor soul.

It was the experience of mystery – even if mixed with fear – that engendered religion.

The truths of religion are never so well understood as by those who have lost the power of reason.

I was reared in the church, in the Presbyterian Church.

God cannot be realized through the intellect. Intellect can lead one to a certain extent and no further. It is a matter of faith and experience derived from that faith.

I thank you God for this most amazing day, for the leaping greenly spirits of trees, and for the blue dream of sky and for everything which is natural, which is infinite, which is yes.

Faith is easy; I think people complicate it.

I think Buddhism should open the door of psychology and healing to penetrate more easily into the Western world.

God doesn’t dwell in the wooden, stony or earthen idols. His abode is in our feelings, our thoughts.

Start with God – the first step in learning is bowing down to God; only fools thumb their noses at such wisdom and learning.

No matter what has happened to you in the past or what is going on in your life right now, it has no power to keep you from having an amazingly good future if you will walk by faith in God. God loves you! He wants you to live with victory over sin so you can possess His promises for your life today!

Faith… must be enforced by reason… when faith becomes blind it dies.

Religions, which condemn the pleasures of sense, drive men to seek the pleasures of power. Throughout history power has been the vice of the ascetic.

But at any rate, the point is that God is what nobody admits to being, and everybody really is.

The only answer to fear is faith in God, knowing He loves you unconditionally and individually.

As for our great King, when we venture into His presence, let us have a purpose there. Let us beware of playing at praying; it is insolence toward God.

The Lord gets his best soldiers out of the highlands of affliction.

Spiritual worldliness kills! It kills the soul! It kills the Church!

All the goodness I have within me is totally from the Lord alone. When I sin, it is from me and is done on my own, but when I act righteously, it is wholly and completely of God.

This thing comes to me, not by the hearing of the ear, but by my own personal experience: I know of a surety that Jesus manifests Himself unto His people as He doth not unto the world.

I am at peace with God. My conflict is with Man.

Christianity, if false, is of no importance, and if true, of infinite importance. The only thing it cannot be is moderately important.

There is but one cause of human failure. And that is man’s lack of faith in his true Self.
