I'd rather have ten people that want God than 10,000 people who want to play church.
Prayer is not a preparation for the battle; it is the battle!
My goal is GOD HIMSELF. Not joy, not peace, not even blessing but HIMSELF...my GOD.
I've got The Father on my side, Jesus Christ, The Holy Spirit and 2/3 of the angels. What do you think I'm going to do? Sit down and cry?

The less power a church has, the more entertainment it has.
If I was to ask you tonight if you were saved? Do you say 'Yes, I am saved'. When? 'Oh so and so preached, I got baptized and...' Are you saved? What are you saved from, hell? Are you saved from bitterness? Are you saved from lust? Are you saved from cheating? Are you saved from lying? Are you saved from bad manners? Are you saved from rebellion against your parents? Come on, what are you saved from?
A man who is intimate with God will never be intimidated by men.
No man is greater than his prayer life. The pastor who is not praying is playing; the people who are not praying are straying. We have many organizers, but few agonizers; many players and payers, few pray-ers; many singers, few clingers; lots of pastors, few wrestlers; many fears, few tears; much fashion, little passion; many interferers, few intercessors; many writers, but few fighters. Failing here, we fail everywhere.
Entertainment is the devil's substitute for joy. The more joy you have in the Lord the less entertainment you need.
