“A child rightly trained may be a world-wide blessing, with an influence reaching onward to eternal years. But a neglected or misdirected directed child may live to blight and blast mankind, and leave influences of evil which shall roll on in increasing volume till they plunge into the gulf of eternal perdition.”
George Mueller (Evangelist, 1805 – 1898)
“I believe God has heard my prayers. He will make it manifest in His own good time that He has heard me. I have recorded my petitions that when God has answered them, His name will be glorified.”
George Mueller (Evangelist, 1805 – 1898)
“The more I am in a position to be tried in faith with reference to my body, my family, my service for the Lord, my business, etc., the more shall I have opportunity of seeing God’s help and deliverance; and every fresh instance, in which He helps and delivers me, will tend towards the increase of my faith.”
George Mueller (Evangelist, 1805 – 1898)
“The greater the trial, the sweeter the victory.”
George Mueller (Evangelist, 1805 – 1898)
“On the ground of our own goodness we cannot expect to have our prayers answered. But Jesus is worthy, and for His sake we may have our prayers answered. There is nothing too choice, too costly, or too great for God to give Him. He is worthy. He is the spotless, holy Child, who under all circumstances acted according to the mind of God. And if we trust in Him, if we hide in Him, if we put Him forward and ourselves in the background, depend on Him and plead His name, we may expect to have our prayers answered.”
George Mueller (Evangelist, 1805 – 1898)
“Only a life of prayer and meditation will render a vessel ready for the Master’s use.”
George Mueller (Evangelist, 1805 – 1898)
“Now what is food for the inner man? Not prayer, but the Word of God; and here again, not the simple reading of the Word of God, so that it only passes through our minds, just as water passes through a pipe, but considering what we read, pondering it over and applying it to our hearts.”
George Mueller (Evangelist, 1805 – 1898)
“When God overcomes our difficulties for us, we have the assurance that we are engaged in His work and not our own.”
George Mueller (Evangelist, 1805 – 1898)
“The Spirit and the Word must be combined. If I look to the Spirit alone without the Word, I lay myself open to great delusions also. If the Holy Ghost guides us at all, He will do it according to the Scriptures and never contrary to them.”
George Mueller (Evangelist, 1805 – 1898)
“When sight ceases, it is the time for faith to work. The greater the difficulties, the easier it is for faith. As long as human possibilities for success remain, faith does not accomplish things as easily as when all natural prospects fail.”
George Mueller (Evangelist, 1805 – 1898)
