Affirmation: There is no adverse circumstance in my life that I cannot overcome with the God-kind of faith.
The whole of the New Testament, after the Gospels, has this one object: to get Christians to go on, and to go on to full growth -- into their eternal vocation -- their heavenly calling (the purpose of God for their lives). - T. Austin Sparks
We should pray because prayer is the most realistic thing in the world to do. It is our acknowledgment of reality, our right response to reality, our honesty with reality. - Peter Kreeft
With God's power working in us, God can do much, much more than anything we can ask or imagine. - Ephesians 3:20
You may have a strong impression that you simply know is from the Lord. When this happens you begin to experience a new realm of God's glory and manifest presence. From that, you have a new revelation of God. He is glory, and His presence causes the atmosphere around you to begin to change. It is like experiencing a little bit of heaven. - Chuck Pierce
How can we be sad, or hang our heads, or be distressed? Oh, if we only knew how rich we are! - Smith Wigglesworth
The church condemns violence, but it condemns indifference more harshly, Violence can be the expression of love, indifference never. - Graham Greene
Affirmation: I am dead to sin, dead to my former lusts, dead to this world, but alive unto God.
Acting in love when others are not acting in love toward you -- this is of the highest value to your soul. It is worth more than all the other works of faith you may have done, no matter how great they appear. - John of the Cross
In the meditative state rivers of living water will flow spontaneously from within us just as a natural river flows spontaneously from a spring. Characteristics of spontaneous flow include a sensitivity to and willingness to follow inner promptings, awareness of creative expression flowing within, and being uncomfortable living in "boxes". - Mark Virkler
"He who believes in me, as the scripture has said, Out of his heart shall flow rivers of living water." - John 7:38
We will never fully unite with Jesus unless we face the same disillusionment process as the disciples -- one of longing and disappointment in this world. If believers who profess love for God have never been through this inward longing, their love probably has not progressed very much. - Shawn Bolz
To be a Christian means to forgive the inexcusable, because God has forgiven the inexcusable in you. - C. S. Lewis
Affirmation: My highest purpose for this day is to walk with Him.
Jesus Christ operates through you. He does not operate independently of you. Man and God become united. Unless the spirit of man is truly joined to God, there is no such thing as real Christian manifestation. - John Lake
We must love Him with total disregard to dry spells and to times of spiritual abundance, otherwise we are built on sifting sand. - Jeanne Guyon
The world and its desires pass away, but the man who does the will of God lives forever. - 1 John 2:17
We must experience a breaking out of old mind-sets and blindness in order to break into the revelation of what is to be ours (2 Cor4:3,4). Barbara Yoder
Anxiety is the natural result when our hopes are centered in anything short of God and His will for us. - Billy Graham

Affirmation: There is nothing more important in life than giving myself to my destiny - the purpose of God for my life.
God,I really want to see You more clearly. I really want to love You more dearly. And God, I really want to follow You more nearly, day by day. Amen - Che Anh
We deceive ourselves if we believe we can possess the inward reality without its having a profound effect on how we live. To attempt to arrange an outward life-style of simplicity without the inward reality leads to deadly legalism. - Richard Foster
"God made man simple; man's complex problems are of his own devising." - Ecclesiastes 7:30
The more we go on to learn about the Lord Jesus, the more impossible will life be, and situations become, on this earth. - T. Austin-Sparks
All the world is my parish. - John Wesley
Affirmation: I know it's not enough just to know God's will. I continue to seek the Lord until I know God's plan for accomplishing that will.
Paul mentioned in Ephesians 6:17 that the believer is to "take the helmet of salvation." This verse helps to show the need for the deliverance of the human mind. - Watchman Nee
Our new song is to be a song of all God has done for us. Truly, your most effective testimony is to brag to other people about what God has done for you this week. Tell people what He did just yesterday, or even this morning. Then your song will always be new. - Myles Munroe
"Sing to Him a new song; play skillfully, and shout for joy." - Psalm 33:3
If your hopes are being disappointed just now, it means that they are being purified. - Oswald Chambers
Working in the vineyard, Working all the day, Never be discouraged, Only watch and pray. - Fanny Crosby
Affirmation: I am a living stone, built into the spiritual house, to be a holy priesthood, to offer spiritual sacrifices acceptable to God through Jesus Christ.
God sent His Son to die for you. And Jesus gave you a blood-bought right to an abundant life full of meaning and purpose! He gave you a blood-bought right to walk in divine health all the days of your life! He gave you a blood-bought right to prosperity even when the economy goes down! - Joseph Prince
Praying sets him who prays to "walk circumspectly, redeeming the time"; enables him to "walk worthy of the vocation (destiny) wherewith he is called with all lowliness and meekness." - E. M. Bounds
"Look carefully then how you walk, not as unwise men, but as wise, making the most of the time, because the days are evil. Therefore do not be foolish, but understand what the will of the Lord is." - Ephesians 5:15,16
Unless I am on my knees I cannot live in His love. - Andrew Murray
To you, Oh, Lord, I sing a new song of praise, lifting up my voice in adoration and rejoicing. Amen -- William J. Seymour (January 1907)

Sunday School - April 10, 2011
Affirmations: The Word dictates what is in my heart. God gave me vision so I would not have to live by what I see.
Having faith in God means having faith that God is always what He has been. Whatever He does once shows what He is like forever. - Reinhard Bonnke

"We are workers together with God." - 2 Corinthians 6:1
The inner sense of compassion is one of the clearest indications from the Lord that this is a prayer project for you. - Richard Foster

We are all involved. To each of us comes this call: "Come follow me! Ye shall be witnesses unto me!" Each Christian has a story worth telling, and an opportunity to approach another person in a unique way. - Ros Rinker
Rather than the cry for security, we need to hear more of the cry for revelation. This cry is necessary simply because we are safer in the realm of God's way with us than in being encumbered in the way of the world. - Charles Ringma
"That the God of our Lord Jesus Christ, the Father of glory, may give unto you the spirit of wisdom and revelation in the knowledge of Him." - Ephesians 1:17
The further we go in Christ, the simpler we become, and the clearer our focus that Jesus is all. - James Goll

When the worship leader or pastor steps up to a microphone and says, "It's time to pray," or "It's time to worship," we should know that in that moment the eternal law of sowing and reaping is activated. - Tommy Tenney
We are all anointed for the discipleship of new believers as we follow the Spirit's leading. - Patricia King
"It is God who is at work in you, both to will and to work for His good pleasure." Philippians 2:13
God does not see us in ourselves - He sees is in Christ. He does not see us, He sees Christ in us. If we really believed that, we would be delivered from ourselves and would indeed be triumphant Christians. - T. Austin-Sparks
All life is growth. This is especially true of the spiritual life. It continually grows. To stand still, to look back is death. - Herbert Slade
