| "I don't often spend more than half an hour in prayer at one time, but I never go more than half an hour without praying." "We may be nothing, but in God, we can be mighty." "I would rather die trusting God than live in unbelief." "The power of God will take you out of your own plans and put you into the plan of God." "Desire toward God and you will have desires from God and He will meet you on the line of those desires when you reach out in simple faith." "Believe that when you come into the presence of God you can have all you came for. You can take it away, and you can use it, for all the power of God is at your disposal in response to your faith." "The devil knows if he can capture your thought life he has won a mighty victory over you." "I can get more out of God by believing Him for one minute than by shouting at Him all night." "I believe that God wants to put His hand upon us so that we may reach ideal definitions of humility, of human helplessness, of human insufficiency, until we will rest no more upon human plans, but have God�s thoughts, God�s voice, and the Holy Spirit to speak to us." "Believe that when you come into the presence of God, you can have all you came for. You can take it away, and you can use it, for all power of God is at your disposal in response to your faith." "I'm not moved by what I see. I'm moved only by what I believe!" "In me is working a power stronger than every other power. The life that is in me is a thousand times bigger than I am outside." "I believe that there is only one way to all the treasure of God, and that is the way of Faith. By faith and faith alone do we enter into a knowledge of the attributes, become partakers of the beatitudes, and participate in the glories of our ascended Lord." "But the Master does not want us to reason things out - for carnal reasoning will always land us in a bog of unbelief.. just obey." "I find nothing in the Bible but holiness, and nothing in the world but worldliness. Therefore, if I live in the world, I will become worldly; on the other hand, if I live in the Bible, I will become holy." "If you wake up today and are the same as you were yesterday, you are a backslider." "As this precious faith becomes a part of you, you will dare to do anything. And remember, God wants daring people - people who will dare all, people who will be strong in Him and dare to do exploits." "How shall we reach this plane of faith? Let go of your own thoughts and take the thoughts of God, the Word of God. If you build yourself on imaginations you will go wrong. You have the Word of God, and it is enough. And truly the Word of God changes a person until he becomes an epistle of God. It transforms his mind, changes his character, moves him on from grace to grace, makes him an inheritor of the very nature of God. God comes in, dwells in, walks in, talks through, and sups with him who opens his being to the Word of God and receives the Spirit who inspired it." |

| "Thou hast loved righteousness, and hated iniquity; therefore God, even thy God, hath anointed thee with the oil of gladness above thy fellows." Psalm 45:7 It is the purpose of God that we, as we are indwelt by the Spirit of His Son, should likewise love righteousness and hate iniquity. I see that there is a place for us in Christ Jesus where we are no longer under condemnation but where the heavens are always open to us. I see that God has a realm of divine life opening up to us where there are boundless possibilities, where there is limitless power, where there are untold resources, where we have victory over all the power of the devil. I believe that, as we are filled with the desire to press on into this life of true holiness, desiring only the glory of God, there is nothing that can hinder our true advancement. Peter commences his second epistle with these words, "Simon Peter, a servant and an apostle of Jesus Christ, to them that have obtained like precious faith with us through the righteousness of God and our Saviour Jesus Christ." It is through faith that we realize that we have a blessed and glorious union with our risen Lord. When He was on earth Jesus told us, "I am in the Father and the Father in me." "The Father that dwelleth in Me, He doeth the works." And He prayed to His Father, not only for His disciples but for those who should believe on Him through their word; "That they all may be one; as Thou, Father, art in Me, and I in Thee, that they also may be one in us: that the world may believe that Thou bast sent Me." Oh what an inheritance is ours when the very nature, the very righteousness, the very power of the Father and the Son are made real in us. That is God's purpose, and as we by faith lay hold on the purpose we shall be ever conscious of the fact that greater is He that is in us than he that is in the world. The purpose of all Scripture is to move us on to this wonderful and blessed elevation of faith where our constant experience is the manifestation of God's life and power through us.
