I read all types of book written by reputed preachers in my early Christian life. I would record down those phases which I thought meaningful. But as I read through this lists of quotation this morning, I found myself able to discern what is the bone and what is the flesh. So I began to harvest the fishes and throw away the fishing hook, the string, fishing rod as well as the fisherman. Before I was enlightened by grace, I swallow everything, including the fisherman's boots.
These are the few that leave standing and surprisingly, these are the phases that I did not quite understand then. I suppose these phases are of gold, sliver and precious stone which could withstand the fire.
Depression is the deception that comes from seeing the world from our perspective.
Every day that our Lord delays His judgment is His mercy to the world!
Few, if any, believers came to Christ because they loved Him. We all came to Jesus because we needed Him!
First Love is divine in its origins. We cannot produce it. We simply receive and respond to it.
God love us not because of our nature but because He is God.
God people are the book that Jesus is writing, and the wise can see Jesus in God people, and in their works.
God’s power is released in our lives to the degree of our obedience. Obedience is not based on emotion, but on faith. It is the obedience of faith, not man.
He will not send us anywhere; He will take us everywhere!
If revelation of Jesus’ love could come to our heart, revolution could come to our life!
If Satan cannot overcome a person by temptation, he’ll try accusation, or intimidation.
Judge all prophecy. We base that judgment on the written Word of Christ, not on the reputation of the speaker.
Love is the desire to benefit others even at the expense of self, because love desires to give and God gave His begotten Son, Jesus Christ.
Ministers need to remember that the Sword of the Spirit only slices off ears when wielded in the flesh. Legalistic preaching produces deafness instead of revealing truth. Truth is in the realm of grace.
Our failures should serve to bring us back to God’s First Love.
Worship is not the declaration of the love of the worshippers. It is a declaration of the love of Jesus.
Religion is man’s attempt to get to gods, but Christianity is God’s attempt to come to man!
Repentance is change of mind.
Right believing produces right living.
The basic art of communication is the ability to hear!
The Bible emphasizes on Who made the universal and not how the universal was made.
The responsibility for where we are spiritually is ours. We can make excuses, but in the end we are where we want to be.
Waiting on God to bring us to the end of our journey is much faster than our feet.
We are given the gift of eternal life because Jesus had died on the cross. We are given the gifts of the Spirit because Jesus had been glorified.
We are not saved because we love God. We are saved because God loves us!
We can never make ourselves into who we should be, but we must trust the Lord to make us into who we should be.
When someone is lost, he does not need correction, he needs direction!
