A Fresh Manifestation of His Glory – T. Austin-Sparks
There is no situation so hopeless as to make it impossible for the glory of God to break in; no situation that can shut God out and be too impossible for a fresh manifestation of His glory.
– T. Austin-Sparks –
Cleansed Motives – Smith Wigglesworth
The Lord would so cleanse the motive and desires of our hearts that we will seek but one thing only, and that is, His glory.

Holiness of Life – Robert Murray M’Cheyne
Study universal holiness of life. Your whole usefulness depends on this, for your sermons last but an hour or two; your life preaches all the week. If Satan can only make a covetous minister a lover of praise, of pleasure, of good eating, he has ruined your ministry. Give yourself to prayer, and get your texts, your thoughts, your words from God. Luther spent his best three hours in prayer.
– Robert Murray M’Cheyne –
No one can diminish God’s glory – CS Lewis
A man can no more diminish God’s glory by refusing to worship Him than a lunatic can put out the sun by scribbling “darkness” on the wall of his cell.
– CS Lewis –
Trust God With Your Future – Corrie ten Boom

– Corrie ten Boom –
View of God’s Majesty – AW Pink

See the Greatness of God – John Piper
If you don’t see the greatness of God then all the things that
money can buy become very exciting. If you can’t see the sun
you will be impressed with a street light. If you’ve never felt thunder
and lightning you’ll be impressed with fireworks. And if you turn
your back on the greatness and majesty of God you’ll fall in love
with a world of shadows and short-lived pleasures.
– John Piper –
