Dwight L. Moody

When I was a young man I heard Henry Barley say that the world has yet to see what God can do for a man fully yielded to Him, and I said I wanted to be that man. But I can say today the world has yet to see what God can do with a man fully yielded to Him.

What makes the Dead Sea dead? Because it is all the time receiving, never giving out anything. Why is it that many Christians are cold? Because they are all the time receiving, never giving out anything.

When a man is filled with the Word of God you cannot keep him still, If a man has got the Word, he must speak or die.

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.

Excuses are the cradle ... that Satan rocks men off to sleep in.

I'd rather be able to pray than to be a great preacher; Jesus Christ never taught his disciples how to preach, but only how to pray.

A holy life will produce the deepest impression. Lighthouses blow no horns; they only shine.

If our circumstances find us in God, we shall find God in all our circumstances.

Take courage. We walk in the wilderness today and in the Promised Land tomorrow

Prayer does not mean that I am to bring God down to my thoughts and my purposes, and bend his government according to my foolish, silly, and sometimes sinful notions. Prayer means that I am to be raised up into feeling, into union and design with him; that I am to enter into his counsel and carry out his purpose fully.

God has cast our confessed sins into the depths of the sea, and He's even put a 'No Fishing' sign over the spot.

What we want is to be real. Let us not appear to be more than we are. Don't let us put on any cant, any assumed humility, but let us be real; that is the delight of God. God wants us to be real men and women, and if we profess to be what we are not, God knows all about us. God hates sham.

Where one man reads the Bible, a hundred read you and me.

If you can really make a man believe you love him, you have won him; and if I could only make people really believe that God loves them, what a rush we would see for the kingdom of God!

When a man has no strength, if he leans on God, he becomes powerful.

A good example is far better than a good precept.

Faith makes all things possible... love makes all things easy.

Our Faith must be tested. God builds no ships but what He sends to sea.

So few grow, because so few study.

A man can counterfeit love, he can counterfeit faith, he can counterfeit hope and all the other graces, but it is very difficult to counterfeit humility.

The object of the Bible is not to tell how good men are, but how bad men can become good.
