| "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." |

| "O foolish Galatians, who hath bewitched you, that ye should not obey the truth, before whose eyes Jesus Christ hath been evidently set forth, crucified among you? This only would I learn of you, Received ye the Spirit by the works of the law, or by the hearing of faith? Are ye so foolish? having begun in the Spirit, are ye now made perfect by the flesh?" (Galatians 3:1-3) We are told that we are to leave the first principles of the doctrine of Christ and go on to perfection, not laying again the foundation of repentance from dead works and the doctrine of baptisms and other first principles (Hebrews 6). What would you think of a builder who was everlastingly pulling down his house and putting in fresh foundations? Never look back if you want the power o f God in your life. You will find out that in the measure you have allowed yourself to look back you have missed that which God has for you. The Holy Ghost shows us that we must never look back to the law of sin and death from which we have been delivered. God has brought us into a new order of things, a life of love and liberty in Christ Jesus that is beyond all human comprehension. Many are brought into this new life through the power of the Spirit of God, and then, like the Galatians, who ran well at the beginning, they try to perfect themselves on the lines of legalism. They go back from the life in the Spirit to a life on natural lines. God is not pleased with this, for He has no place for the man who has lost the vision. The only thing to do is to repent. Don't try to cover up anything. If you have been tripped tip on any line, confess it out, and then look to God to bring you to a place of stability of faith where your whole walk will be in the Spirit.
