Legalism Cannot Love
Legalism lacks the supreme sense of worship. It obeys but it does not adore.

The Lord Is the Strength of My Life
Only he who can say, “The Lord is the strength of my life” can say, “Of whom shall I be afraid?”

The Medicine of Prayer
Prayer is a very precious medicine, one that helps and never fails.

If I Gained the World but Lost the Savior
If God were to give you all earthly good and yet took His Presence from you — which He will do if sin is within you, and unrepented of — the loss of His Presence would be a greater loss than the loss of the whole world, or even of Heaven itself!
The Secret of Ministry Success
The secret of success in the ministry is very simple. It is real connection with God, vital union with Christ. This is just the most difficult thing to maintain in fullness of life. The strains of life pull us away. Dust gathers about our heads and in our eyes. Clouds gather and the sun does not shine upon us. God seems to slip away from us and we are left with our weakness and the criticism of the people. It is not human weakness that is a source of strength. It is only when the power of God charges the empty vessel that it becomes a dynamo.

Are You Amazed?

Free to Choose
