30 POWERFUL QUOTES BY D. L. MOODY

From generation to generation, God uses men to bless the whole of humanity and we have been blessed by scores of them. In the midst of all these great people, D.L. Moody is a name worth mentioning, not just for a life well lived but mainly for the rich examples of true Christianity in the life of this one man and how massively he imparted so many lives. Let us read the very words from the mouth of the Rev. Moody:

31 RAVI ZACHARIAS QUOTES

These quotes of Christian apologist Dr. Ravi Zacharias is meant to provoke your understanding, to think like him and see thinks the way he see them. Applying your heart to these truths by Ravi is very worthwhile.

1. When you come to religion, you come to a place. When you come to Jesus Christ, you come to a person.

GIVING

 “Now when he had ended all his sayings in the audience of the people, he entered into Capernaum. And a certain centurion's servant, who was dear unto him, was sick, and ready to die. And when he heard of Jesus, he sent unto him the elders of the Jews, beseeching him that he would come and heal his servant.

MAGNIFYING GOD WITH THANKSGIVING

“As ye have therefore received Christ Jesus the Lord, so walk ye in him: Rooted and built up in him, and established in the faith, as ye have been taught, abounding therein in thanksgiving.” (Colossians 2:6-7)

Thanksgiving is a sacrifice we render towards God for His tender mercies, His kindness and all the blessings He loads upon us daily. It is our appreciation of His good deeds. It behooves of Christians to thank God and thereby magnify Him.

THIS DWELLING PLACE OF GOD

As a Christian I always apply my heart to search for more powerful ways of fellowshipping with the Holy Spirit. This leads me to pray lengthy and regularly on daily basis. I spend lot of time studying and meditating on the Word of God as any Christian should. I will share with you this interesting knowledge to help you mature in your fellowship as a believer in Christ. Let us begin by looking at the scripture below;

SORCERY OF BALAAM

THE MINISTRY OF BALAAM

Part 1 – Sorcery of Balaam

Lesson – What Inspires Your Service For God?

“Now when Balaam saw that it pleased the Lord to bless Israel, he did not go as at other times, to seek to use sorcery, but he set his face toward the wilderness”. (Numbers 24:1)

Balaam is described in the Bible as a prophet of God but he was not one who was approved by God to operate in the ministry of the prophet.

FIRST THINGS FIRST

In Matthew 6:25-34, Jesus Christ teaches the people about priorities. He makes them know that the most important thing in life is to seek the Kingdom of God and His righteousness. A priority refers to a principal thing – the most important thing. Seeking God should be number one on our To-do list always, because it opens the way for us to receive all things we desire in our lives.

QUOTATIONS ON SALVATION BY A. W. TOZER

1. Essentially salvation is the restoration of a right relation between man and his Creator, a bringing back to normal of the Creator-creature relation.
2. In reality, salvation was bought not by Jesus’ fist, but by His nail-pierced hands; not by muscle but by love; not by vengeance but by forgiveness; not by force but by surrender.

A MAN FROM GOD?

THE FALL OF CAIN

Part 1: A MAN FROM GOD?

Fall means to move lower or to drop from a certain height. And I would like to share with you on a series I taught in Church dubbed the Fall of Cain. In my earnest opinion Cain should not have fallen from God’s grace just as Christians should keep from backsliding. And I will explain in this episode one of the reasons why he fell.

JESUS CHRIST - THE LAUNDERER’S SOAP

“But who can endure the day of His coming? And who can stand when He appears? For He is like a refiner’s fire and like a LAUNDERER’S SOAP.” (Mal. 3:2)

THE COMPROMISING CHARACTER

Naaman was a gentile, a Syrian army commander who sought healing for his skin disease-leprosy. With the help and knowledge of a little girl he adhered to, he went to Israel to see the prophet Elisha, and thanks be to Our Lord, he received healing instantly after executing the instructions and directions of the man of God. After this did Naaman make this statement which drew my attention to this character many Christians have come to adopt.

JESUS CALLS HEROD A FOX

“On that very day some Pharisees came, saying to Him, “Get out and depart from here, for Herod wants to kill You.” And He said to them, “Go tell that FOX, ‘Behold, I cast out demons and perform cures today and tomorrow, and the third day I shall be perfected’.” (Luke 13: 31 & 32)

WHAT MAKES THE NAME OF JESUS SO POWERFUL

           

 “And David sent out ten young men, and David said unto the young men, Get you up to Carmel, and go to Nabal, and greet him in my name” (1 Sam. 25:5).

David said, “…and greet him in my name.” David did not send them in own name but in his name. The reason is David associated his name with his person and personality. What was it about David’s person and personality? David was the one who killed Goliath and through whom God gave victory over the Philistines to Israel. The fame of David had spread abroad because of his victory over Goliath. He was therefore known as a mighty and bold warrior.

GOD

He suffers in their arms

His name has known no peace

Not because He is not He, but they comprehended Him not

They struggle with their methods

They fight with their tools

BEFORE THE LORD

Before the Lord are you and I

Before the Lord is a Spirit-filled earth vessel

And a mere earthen vessel

He shall save me and forsake you

He is my strength, I shall not be moved

He loves me, I’m Spirit-filled

When will you forsake your foolish thoughts? Oh you!

Your life is like a dead grass before the Lord

Before the Lord are you and I

10 REASONS WHY WE MUST BE HOLY

 Holiness is the act of living a blameless and upright life, obeying God’s commands, shunning evil and reverently fearing God. By this quality one becomes morally perfect, with a clear conscience before God and man. Here are ten reasons why you must be holy; 

1. God is holy and as His children, we should be holy (1 Pet. 1:15-16) 
2. Because we are members of a holy nation (1 Pet. 2:9) 
3. God chose us form the beginning to be holy and blameless in Him (Eph. 1:4) 

GOD’S FIVE (5) WORDS AGAINST LUCIFER’S FIVE (5) “I WILL” STATEMENTS

Lucifer was once an angel (precisely the anointed cherub that covers, Ezek. 28:14) described verily as the son of the morning. He has become a profane thing because he fell in love with his glory and beauty and wisdom; he eminently became proud and self-centered. His prideful rebellion was demonstrated by five (5) “I will” statements against God. The five statements that Lucifer made as recorded in Isaiah 14:13-14 are;

1.      I will ascend into heaven

2.      I will exalt my throne above the stars of God

THE SOUR WINE AND THE CURSE OF MANKIND

Obliterating the curses upon humanity was an important facet of the redemptive work of Jesus Christ. Jesus came unto the earth realm to save mankind from condemnation. Man had been condemned by earning curses from the Almighty God. These curses are the embargo God placed upon the entire human race because of sin.

(Sin is the violation of God. What do I mean? When an individual sin, he or she has not just sinned but sinned against God. For example if a girl of five is raped she has been violated not necessarily the violation of the constitutional laws. What is the essence of the constitution without the people?
