Remember that it is not a hasty reading, but serious meditation on holy and heavenly truths, that makes them prove sweet and profitable to the soul. It is not the mere touching of the flower by the bee that gathers honey, but her abiding for a time on the flower that draws out the sweet. It is not he that reads most, but he that meditates most, that will prove to be the choicest, sweetest, wisest and strongest Christian.
– Thomas Brooks –
Let faith support us where reason fails, and we shall think because we believe, not in order that we may believe.
– AW Tozer –
What we need is not more learning, not more eloquence, not more persuasion, not more organization, but more power from the Holy Spirit.

Are you truly a Spirit-filled Christian? Does the term “Spirit-filled” describe your doctrine or your devotion?

A man may study because his brain is hungry for knowledge, even Bible knowledge. But he prays because his soul is hungry for God.

The devil is a better theologian than any of us and is a devil still.
– AW Tozer –
The world is not a play-ground; it is a school-room. Life is not a holiday, but an education. And the one eternal lesson for us all is how better we can love.
– Henry Drummond –
There are tremendous thoughts expressed in God’s Book, and unless we have learned to rely on the Holy Spirit we shall say, “Oh, I shall never understand that.” But the Holy Spirit understands it, and as we recognize that and rely on Him, He will work it out, whether we consciously understand or not.
– Oswald Chambers –
