—D. L. Moody

The world cannot, and never could, satisfy a hungry soul. The Lord Jesus can.

—D. L. Moody

God is always true to what He promises to do. He made promises to Abraham, Jacob, Moses, and Joshua, and did He not fulfill them? He will fulfill every word of what He has promised; yet how few take Him at His word!

—D. L. Moody

We don’t know what is before us, but if we have received Jesus Christ, let storms come, let deaths come, let sickness come, let pestilence come, we are sure of life beyond the grave.

All these men that are trying to pick the Word of God to pieces, trying to destroy our confidence in the Word of God, tell us it is not true; but any one who has ever tried God, who has ever proved God, has found Him to be true.

—D. L. Moody

We may be very weak in ourselves, but see what a mighty God we have.

—D. L. Moody

All history is being directed by God in order to bring his own purpose with respect to the kingdom to pass.

—Martyn Lloyd-Jones

If those who have believed are liable to forsake it, if that is a possibility, what is the predicament of those who have never believed?

When you are a child of God, you will love the things that God loves. What you once hated you will love, and what you once loved, you will hate.

—D. L. Moody

I don’t object to seeing men weep over their sins. I don’t know why it is not manly for a man to weep over his sins. It is more manly than to trifle with salvation, and make light of serious things. A great many men seem to be ashamed to shed tears over their sins.

—D. L. Moody

God’s ancient people, especially the most spiritual among them, were so conscious of the holiness and the greatness of God that they trembled to even use His name.

Put no faith in salvation through the political order.

Augustine

We are living in very strange days. Some people tell us it does not make any difference what a man believes in if he is only sincere. No greater delusion ever came out of the pit of hell than that. It is ruining more souls at present than anything else.

—D. L. Moody

My friends, if we are going to do a great work for God, we must spend much time in prayer, we have got to be closeted with God.

—D. L. Moody

The spirit of “Who shall be the greatest?” is still one of the greatest hindrances to the church of God today – the endeavor to win for ourselves honor and esteem.

—D. L. Moody

Let us bear in mind that nothing is too hard for God, and He delights in doing hard things.

—D. L. Moody

The God who does the small thing is just giving you an example of the big thing He can do.

—Martyn Lloyd-Jones
