As health expels disease, light swallows up darkness, and life conquers death, the indwelling Christ through the Spirit is the health, light, and life of the soul.

God created the world out of nothing, and as long as we are nothing, He can make something out of us.
– Martin Luther –
It’s when we come to those agonizing “crying-out-in-desperation-for-a-breakthrough” moments that God is pressing us into the very place we need to be to receive His breakthrough. The place of brokenness. Because the truth is, we aren’t our own solution – HE IS!

Anything that cools my love for Christ is the world.

You are what you are when you are alone!

Consecrate, then concentrate …
– DL Moody –
A man cannot seek both Heaven and earth at the same time. He cannot love both Christ and the world. He who is all on fire for the world — will be all ice for Heaven! Take heed of engaging your affections too far in these earthly things. Use the world as your servant — but do not follow it as your master.
– Thomas Watson –
An earthbound, earth-satisfied spirit cannot pray. In such a heart, the flame of spiritual desire is either gone out or smoldering in faintest glow. The wings of its faith are clipped, its eyes are filmed, its tongue silenced. But they, who in unswerving faith and unceasing prayer, wait continually upon the Lord, do renew their strength, do mount up with wings as eagles, do run, and are not weary, do walk, and not faint.

There are blessings of The Kingdom that are only yielded to the violence of the vehement soul.
