“When history goes along with God, all is well. When history goes contrary to the ways of God, then there is storm and flood and fire. But when it’s over, God has His way in the whirlwind and the storm, and makes the clouds to be the dust of His feet.” A.W. Tozer, The Attributes of God

Materialism and Spiritual Vitality

The Cash Doctor — Wed, 24 Jun 2009 19:51:09 +0000

“Unfortunately, there’s almost no difference between the spending habits of those who know Christ and those who don’t. Many Christians are enjoying financial stability or prosperity, but materialism has robbed them of their spiritual vitality.” Howard Dayton, forward to Rich in Every Way

Scum, Refuse, Trash, Filth

“More important to us, however, the name implies that being people of faith does not mean we are better than anyone else. We know many non-Christians who think Christians are out to cast judgment on them. Our name makes it clear that we aren’t about that. We are just aware of our need for God, as Scum of the Earth. Fortunately, God never sees us like that! But the name is humble and we like that.“ Chris Baker, Scum of the Earth Church, Denver, CO.

Praying for Prominent People

The Cash Doctor — Wed, 11 Feb 2009 18:33:28 +0000

“We naturally suppose it is no use prayng for prominent people. God will look after them all right. The prominent people for God are marked for the wiles of the devil, and we may pray for them all the time. Every now and again God gives us an alarming exhibition of what happens if we don’t.” Oswald Chambers, If You Will Ask

God and Our Self-Worth

The Cash Doctor — Thu, 04 Dec 2008 12:09:22 +0000

“We must understand that this hunger for self-worth is God-given and can only be satisfied by Him. Our value is not dependent on our ability to earn the fickle acceptance of people, but rather, its true source is the love and acceptance of God. He created us. He alone knows how to fulfill all of our needs.” Robert McGee, The Search for Significance

God and You

“As long as you have a personal interest in your own character, or any set ambition, you cannot get through into identification with God’s interests. You can only get there by losing for ever any idea of yourself and by letting God take you right out into His purpose for the world, and because your goings are of the Lord, you can never understand your ways.” Oswald Chambers, My Utmost for His Highest
