The branch of the vine does not worry, and toil, and rush here to seek for sunshine, and there to find rain. No; it rests in union and communion with the vine; and at the right time, and in the right way, is the right fruit found on it. Let us so abide in the Lord Jesus.

We need a baptism of clear seeing. We desperately need seers who can see through the mist– Christian leaders with prophetic vision. Unless they come soon it will be too late for this generation. And if they do come we will no doubt crucify a few of them in the name of our worldly orthodoxy.
– AW Tozer –
We must wake ourselves up! Or somebody else will take our place, and bear our cross, and thereby rob us of our crown.
– William Booth –
The true man of God is heartsick, grieved at the worldliness of the Church…grieved at the toleration of sin in the Church, grieved at the prayerlessness in the Church. He is disturbed that the corporate prayer of the Church no longer pulls down the strongholds of the devil.
– Leonard Ravenhill –
Give me one hundred preachers who fear nothing but sin and desire nothing but God, and I care not whether they be clergymen or laymen, they alone will shake the gates of Hell and set up the kingdom of Heaven upon Earth.
– John Wesley –
Wise leaders should have known that the human heart cannot exist in a vacuum. If Christians are forbidden to enjoy the wine of the Spirit they will turn to the wine of the flesh…. Christ died for our hearts and the Holy Spirit wants to come and satisfy them.
– AW Tozer –
A sermon in shoes is often more eloquent than a sermon on paper.
– Theodore L. Cuyler –
The reason why many fail in battle is because they wait until the hour of battle. The reason why others succeed is because they have gained their victory on their knees long before the battle came…. Anticipate your battles; fight them on your knees before temptation comes, and you will always have victory.
– RA Torrey –
They lose nothing who gain Christ.
– Samuel Rutherford –
