Anyone who puts his faith in himself has a short future. One of the biggest dangers of our day is pride.

Jesus felt the scorn of his own people, and He taught us that a prophet will often not be honoured in his own country.

The victory depends on an abundance of counselors. God often uses his sons and daughters to teach us important life lessons.

God speaks and advises us personally. He shows us the way we should go. He corrects us, disciplines us, sustains and encourages us.

It is much better not to promise in the first place than to promise, and then not get round to keeping it.

On the cross, Jesus suffered the punishment for all the sin of the world, He yielded up his powerful hands out of love.

All the energy we waste looking outwards should be used more productively looking inwards to check what our failings are and seek to rectify them.

We have to learn to be much more dependent on Him and stop carrying all that baggage around with us.

Are you the first to offer sincere congratulations? Do you intend to thank God for what has happened?

Do you realise that God has not promised to get us out of every difficult situation, but that He has promised to always be with us?

One day in heaven we will meet people like David's brave warriors, who weren't frightened of obeying their king, even if it meant losing their lives.

God's involvement with man does not depend primarily on man's personality or character, but on his love for them.

God does not expect you to go through life chasing miracles and wonders. He will do them for you in the simplicity of each day.

 In the 'Olympics' of our spiritual life, materialism stops us from participating and gaining medals.

Only those who are full of the Spirit of God will have learned to wait for the right moment. Victory comes to those who know how to wait.

What is the giant that is mocking you at the moment? Who is the 'Goliath' who makes you take a step backwards?

A bitter person has never helped to change the world. Dreams do not belong only to winners.

All the books in the world would not be enough to write about the blessings we have received from God.

Friendship, faithfulness, forgiveness and acceptance are no more than different faces of true love.

God is the Lord of history, both of the universe and of the personal history of each one of us.

 Why do we feel all alone when God has thousands of promises there for us to get hold of? 

Asked about what made his playing so great, Pete Sampras said: “I have always admired the old stars in tennis”.

Undergoing spiritual training in our devotion to God means letting our character be moulded to Christ’s image.

Never forget that God created happiness and He wants us to live with a joy inside that no one can take from us.

We are fully capable of arranging and messing up our world in a few seconds rather than handing things over to the Lord.
