God does not comfort us to make us comfortable, but to make us comforters.

John Henry Jowett (Preacher, 1863 – 1923)

Gratitude is a vaccine, an antitoxin, and an antiseptic. This is a most searching and true diagnosis. Gratitude can be a vaccine that can prevent the invasion of a disgruntled attitude. As antitoxins prevent the disastrous effects of certain poisons and diseases, thanksgiving destroys the poison of faultfinding and grumbling. When trouble has smitten us, a spirit of thanksgiving is a soothing antiseptic.

John Henry Jowett (Preacher, 1863 – 1923)

It is in the field of prayer that life’s critical battles are lost or won. We must conquer all our circumstances there. We must first of all bring them there. We must survey them there. We must master them there. In prayer we bring our spiritual enemies into the Presence of God and we fight them there. Have you tried that? Or have you been satisfied to meet and fight your foes in the open spaces of the world?

John Henry Jowett (Preacher, 1863 – 1923)

That utterance of Jesus, “Render therefore unto Caesar the things which are Caesar’s, and unto God the things that are God’s,” is one of the most revolutionary and history-making utterances that ever fell from those lips divine. That utterance, once and for all, marked the divorcement of church and state. It marked a new era for the creeds and deeds of men.

George W. Truett (Pastor, 1867 – 1944)

I find no fault in Him.”…You can find fault in anyone else, but you can find
no fault in Jesus. Holy, harmless, undefiled, sinless: there He is! Christ is God’s way to man; Christ is man’s way to God. Christ is the true Jacob’s ladder. By Him the penitent sinner, the believing soul, the redeemed child of God may come unto the Father and enter into the house of many mansions.

George W. Truett (Pastor, 1867 – 1944)

There is no failure in God’s will, and no success outside of God’s will.

George W. Truett (Pastor, 1867 – 1944)

Christ was born in the first century, yet he belongs to all centuries. He was born a Jew, yet He belongs to all races. He was born in Bethlehem, yet He belongs to all countries.

George W. Truett (Pastor, 1867 – 1944)

To know the will of God is the greatest knowledge! To do the will of God is the greatest achievement.

George W. Truett (Pastor, 1867 – 1944)
