The great need of our time is for Christians to know what God has called them unto. - T. Austin-Sparks
When you lose anything to the locusts (Joel 2:25-26), you can still get it back. You can appropriate the promise that says everything the locust has eaten, God will restore. Then you can use your faith to start expecting it. Every time you speak of it, It will get closer. - Myles Munroe
"And I will restore or replace for you the years that the locust has eaten....And you shall eat in plenty and be satisfied and praise the name of the Lord , your God." (Joel 2:25-26)
Fasting reminds us that we are sustained "by every word that proceeds from the mouth of God" (Matt. 4:A4). Food does not sustain us; God sustains us, In Christ, "All things hold together" (Col 1:17). Therefore, in experiences of fasting we are not so much abstaining from food as we are feasting on the word of God. Fasting is feasting! - Richard Foster
One encounter with Jesus Christ is enough to change you, instantly, forever. - Luis Palau
Affirmation: When I come to rest in Him, He will then move through me, and I will actually find rest and refreshment as He does it.
The Holy Spirit does not draw us so we can hang up a "Do Not Disturb" sign and sit in our little comfort zone singing love songs to Jesus the rest of our lives. As fellow heirs with Christ, we are drawn into intimacy, then empowered in ministry to bring others into their destiny in Christ Jesus. - Mike Bickle
You can never pray the prayer of faith if you look at the person who is needing it. There is only one place to look and this is to Jesus. - Smith Wigglesworth
"Holy brethren, who share in a heavenly call, consider Jesus, the apostle and high priest of our confession." Hebrews 3:1
We can never just cry to God. We must also act. Prayer always leads to entering the fray. The movement of prayer is from God to neighbor. - Charles Ringma
Worldliness is that which cools my affection toward God - John Wesley
Affirmation: I put on, as the elect of God, Holy, and beloved, compassion, kindness, humility, gentleness, and patience.
If you knew the length, breadth, height, and depth of His perfect love for you, would you still remain anxious, stressed, and worried? - Joseph Prince
In witnessing we work against the Holy Spirit when we try to make everybody feel happy. - Charles Finney
"Anyone who lets himself be distracted from the work I plan for him is not fit for the Kingdom of God." - Luke 9:62
Paul allowed "crazy love" to rise up within his heart, which freed him from insecurity and fear of man. - Sean Smith

Wednesday Night - Walking In The Spirit - April 20, 2011
Affirmation: The Kingdom of Heaven is in my neighborhood because I live there and the Kingdom of Heaven is in me.
I have purposed to try to live in such a way that nothing ever gets bigger than my consciousness of God's presence. - Bill Johnson
When bad situations hit us and we allow the facts to settle in our hearts, we end up feeling greatly troubled. But when we let the truths of God's Word settle them all, we will sense the Holy Spirit bearing witness to the truths that we are believing. He is the Spirit of truth. He is not the Spirit of facts and does not bear witness to facts. - Joseph Prince
"When the Spirit of truth comes he will guide you into all the truth; for He will not speak on his own authority, but whatever he hears He will speak, and He will declare to you the things that are to come." - John 16:13
When the battle is over and the victory has been won, do not say, "Look at what I have done through the Lord," but rather kneel at the foot of the cross and say, "Is it not wonderful that His grace and His faith should be manifested in me!" - Don Milam
I can do little, yet I am resolved through the grace of Christ, I will never give over the work, so long as I have legs to go. - John Eliot
Affirmation: I claim and assert now my authority over poverty, pain, suffering, and trouble as a son of the King of the universe.
Like a brave soldier, who, as the conflict grows more stern, exhibits a superior courage than in the earlier stages of the battle; so does the praying Christian, when delay and denial face him, increase his earnest asking, and ceases not until prayer prevails. - E. M. Bounds
Before you get to the church service, you are supposed to be praising God. Even before you get into the car, you are supposed to have had your own private praise service so that when you get with the rest of God's family, you are ready to ascend into God's presence with everybody else. - Myles Munroe
"I was glad when they said unto me, Let us go into the house of the Lord." - Psalm 122:1
What an evangelism tool - imagine walking in such a deep flow of the Spirit of counsel that you receive words of knowledge for others. - Keith Miller
When His church is in a low state, and oppressed by her enemies, and cries to Him, He will swiftly fly to her relief, as birds fly at the cry of their young. - Jonathan Edwards
Affirmation: I put on the new man which is in the image of Christ who is bringing me to a full knowledge of himself.
A reason we may not pursue witnessing the Gospel to others is the fact that many of us want guaranteed results. Jesus never gave us such a guarantee. He never had one when He died on the cross. All that He is asking is that in obedience and love, we share the greatest news ever known. - Che Ahn
Your deepest aim should be to turn a deaf ear to self, while listening to God in silence. Say little and do much - without wondering if you have been noticed or not. - Francois Fenelon
"Blessed are the poor in spirit, for theirs is the kingdom of heaven." Matthew 5:3
There is a way of ordering our mental life on more than one level at once. On one level we may be thinking, discussing, seeing, calculating, meeting all the demands of external affairs. But deep within, behind the scenes, at a profounder level, we may also be in prayer and adoration, song and worship, and a gentle receptiveness to divine breathings. - Thomas Kelly
You must not think to go to heaven on a feather-bed if you will be Christ's disciples, you must take up His cross; and it will make you passionate. - Thomas Hooker

Tearing Down Strongholds
2 Corinthians 10:4 -- For the weapons of our warfare are not carnal, but mighty through God to the pulling down of strongholds.
A stronghold is a satanic force that starts as a thought, then lays its foundation in a person's mind, builds itself up and makes its abode there.
You can't simply cast down a stronghold as you would cast down an evil thought or imagination. You need the word of God to become like a hammer in your life in order to tear down that stronghold and get it out of your system.
Hebrews 4:12 -- For the word of God is quick, and powerful, and sharper than any twoedged sword.........
Proverbs 4:17 -- My son, attend to my words........
Proverbs 18:10 -- The name of the Lord is a strong tower: the righteous run to it and are safe.

How can I get rid of a stronghold? By having a strong tower!
