Faith is taking God at His word. Those who want some sign are always getting into trouble. We want to come to this: God says it – let us believe it.

from The Way to God
[Speaking of the Holy Spirit coming upon him]
I went to preaching again. The sermons were not different; I did not present any new truths, and yet hundreds were converted. I would not now be placed back where I was before that blessed experience if you should give me all the world—it would be as dust in the balance.

One day a lady criticized DL Moody for his methods of evangelism in attempting to win people to the Lord. Moody’s reply was “I agree with you. I don’t like the way I do it either. Tell me, how do you do it?” The lady replied, “I don’t do it.” Moody responded, “I like my way of doing it better than your way of not doing it.”
God sends no one away empty, except those who are full of themselves.

You have nothing to be proud of. If you are ever used at all, bear in mind that it is God speaking in you, and not you yourself.

Some say that faith is the gift of God. So is the air, but you have to breathe it; so is bread, but you have to eat it. Some are wanting some miraculous kind of feeling. That is not faith. “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.

Our faith must be tested. God builds no ships but what He sends to sea.
