Prayerless...

A prayerless preacher is a powerless preacher. 
~ Mark Hollingsworth

Living Out Your Mission?

How are you living out your mission? Are you drawing your strength from His power and authority? Or are you depending upon the props? Those who go through life carrying sacks of provisions find themselves powerless; they unwittingly confess a mistrust in His providence....Carry out your mission full of His strength and unburdened by your own. ~ Chris Tiegreen

Power Only in Jesus

"The fear of punishment, the desire of reward, the sense of duty, are all useful arguments in their way, to persuade people to holiness. But they are ll weak and powerless, until a person loves Christ." ~ J.C. Ryle

Prayers Not Answered

"The reason our prayers are not answered is that we are not stupid enough to believe what Jesus says." ~ Oswald Chambers

"As long as we are self-sufficient and complacent, we don't need to ask God for anything, we don't want Him; it is only when we know we are powerless that we are prepared to listen to Jesus Christ and to do what He says." ~ Oswald Chambers
