You can delegate many things, but prayer is not one of them.

When men no longer fear God, they transgress His laws without hesitation. The fear of consequences is no deterrent when the fear of God is gone.

What then are we to do about our problems? We must learn to live with them until such time as God delivers us from them…we must pray for grace to endure them without murmuring. Problems patiently endured will work for our spiritual perfecting. They harm us only when we resist them or endure them unwillingly.

Jesus calls us to his rest, and meekness is His method. The meek man cares not at all who is greater than he, for he has long ago decided that the esteem of the world is not worth the effort.

The Word of God well understood and religiously obeyed is the shortest route to spiritual perfection. And we must not select a few favorite passages to the exclusion of others. Nothing less than a whole Bible can make a whole Christian.

Blessed is the man who endures trial for…. he will receive the crown of life.
To the Christian, death is said in the Bible to be a coronation. The picture here is that of a regal prince who, after his struggles and conquests in an alien land, returns to his native country and court to be crowned and honored for his deeds.
The Bible says we are pilgrims and strangers in a foreign land. This world is not our home; our citizenship is in heaven. And some day all our battles on this earth will be over, and we will enter that Heavenly Home.
To the one who has been faithful Christ will give a crown of life. Paul said, “There is laid up for me the crown of righteousness, which the Lord, the righteous Judge, will give to me on that day, and not to me only but also to all who have loved His appearing”. (2 Timothy 4:8)
When D.L. Moody was dying, he looked up to heaven and said, “Earth is receding, heaven is opening, this is my coronation day.” Never forget: If you are a Christian, you are a child of the King!
Billy Graham
Walking in humility isn’t focusing on what we are NOT; rather, it’s declaring what God is.

When we allow God to be exalted in our difficulties we are in the perfect place to smell the fragrance of His Presence.

To know that God thinks about me is the beginning of my journey of faith.
A.W. Tozer (Pastor, Preacher)
What we need very badly these days is a company of Christians who are prepared to trust God as completely now as they know they must do at the last day… It would be better to invite God now to remove every false trust, to disengage our hearts from all secret hiding places and to bring us out into the open where we can discover for ourselves whether or not we actually trust Him. That is a harsh cure for our troubles, but it is a sure one. Gentler cures may be too weak to do the work. And time is running out on us.
