The consideration of God’s special providence should teach you to think of the presence of God as all-seeing and all-knowing, to seek his help, and also to believe that you are helped in all things, and finally that there is no danger so terrible but he is able and willing to deliver you from it, when it is fit.
– William Perkins –
from The Art of Prophesying, 1592
Onward, soldiers of the cross, where Jesus has led the way. The eternal God is your refuge, and underneath you are the everlasting arms. You are not called upon to go a warfare at your own charges, neither are you left alone in the battle: the banner which waves over you bears the soul-assuring motto, “Jehovah-Jireh, the Lord will provide.”
– Charles Spurgeon –
Our God is a consuming fire. He consumes pride, lust, materialism, and other sin.
– Leonard Ravenhill –
If I could hear Christ praying for me in the next room, I would not fear a million enemies. Yet distance makes no difference. He is praying for me.
– Robert Murray M’Cheyne –
When Holy God draws near in true revival, people come under terrible conviction of sin. The outstanding feature of spiritual awakening has been the profound consciousness of the Presence and holiness of God.
– Henry Blackaby –
We have a God who delights in impossibilities.
– Billy Sunday –
Bring me a worm that can comprehend a man, and then I will show you a man that can comprehend the Triune God.
– John Wesley –
We never test the resources of God until we attempt the
IMPOSSIBLE.
– FB Meyer –
I have found that there are three stages in every great work of
God: first, it is impossible, then it is difficult, then it is done.
