responsibility men people
Some people come to me and say, "Mr. Moody, don't you feel a great responsibility when you come before an audience like this - don't you feel a great weight upon your shoulders?" "Well." I say, "no; I cannot convert men; I can only proclaim the Gospel.
christian people trying
A great many people wonder why it was that Christ did not come at once to Martha and Mary, whom He loved, whenever He heard of their affliction. It was to try them, and it is the same with His dealings toward us. If He seems not to come to us in our affliction, it is only to test us.
people spirit lord
I never yet have known the Spirit of God to work where the Lord's people were divided.
distance people heaven
We talk about heaven being so far away. It is within speaking distance to those who belong there. Heaven is a prepared place for a prepared people.
successful men people
It is not the man that can preach the best that is the most successful, but the man who knows how to get his people together to pray.
men people complaining
I have noticed this, that when a man is full of the Holy Ghost he is the very last man to be complaining of other people.
prayer people criticism
How many people would like to get up in a social prayer-meeting to say a few words for Christ, but there is such a cold spirit of criticism in the church that they dare not do it.
christian believe people
I believe hundreds of Christian people are being deceived by Satan now on this point, that they have not got the assurance of salvation just because they are not willing to take God at His word.
christian peace people
A great many people are trying to make peace, but that has already been done. God has not left it for us to do; all we have to do is to enter into it.
prayer thinking people
Some people think God does not like to be troubled with our constant coming and asking. The way to trouble God is not to come at all.
country cities people
Either these - unsaved people are to be evangelized, or the leaven of communism and infidelity will assume such enormous proportions that it will break you in a reign of terror such as this country has never known.
giving people joy
The Lord gives his people perpetual joy when they walk in obedience to him.
heart winning people
A worker must win the hearts and affections of the people before he can do any effective work.
stupid giving people
If God has given you a message, go and give it to the people as God has given it to you. It is a stupid thing to try to be eloquent.
