Kindle Notes & Highlights
Romans 8:31 states, “If God is for us, who can be against us?”
Don’t seek answers; seek God. And the answers will seek you.
We think we have too much to do to pray, but the exact opposite is true: we have too much to do not to pray!
After we pray like it depends on God, we need to work like it depends on us.
We think we’re going somewhere to do something, but God always has ulterior motives. There is a rhyme and reason to His will that we aren’t even aware of.
Don’t worry about building a platform. If you listen to God, people will listen to you.
When you open your Bible, God opens His mouth.
God will speak to you. Then God will speak through you.
Prayer is the way we write the future. It’s the difference between letting things happen and making things happen.
The right word spoken at the right time can make an eternal difference.
There comes a moment when praying becomes a form of spiritual procrastination. It’s time to stop praying and start acting.
at some point, we have to quit praying and start acting.
We can’t just pray like it depends on God; we also must work like it depends on us.
If you want God to do something new, you cannot keep doing the same old thing.
If we get into God’s Word, God’s Word will get into us.
It will radically change the way we think, the way we live, the way we love.

It’s those who spend the most time in God’s presence that God can use the most because they are the people He can trust the most.
Abiding in the Word of God is the way we take enemy territory and hold our ground. It’s our best offense and best defense.
We cannot abide in the Word of God and not be moved to action.
We cannot do something for God if we aren’t with God. We have to press into His presence. And the surest way to get into God’s presence is by getting into God’s Word.
The more faith we have, the more specific our prayers will be. And the more specific our prayers are, the more glory God receives.
Well-developed faith results in well-defined prayers, and well-defined prayers result in well-defined answers.
instead of circling Jericho, we end up wandering in the wilderness.
What is your Jericho?
Define your dream. Claim your promise. Spell your miracle.
Most of us don’t get what we want because we don’t know what we want.
When a testimony of healing is shared, for example, those who hear it get an infusion of faith to believe God for healing in their own lives.
A testimony is powerful, in part, because we cannot argue with it. It’s irrefutable and undeniable.
we get a testimony by being tested.
don’t just get an education; get a testimony!
Don’t be satisfied with secondhand faith; get a testimony!
If we are going to intercede for others, we had better be sure that others are interceding for us.
if you focus on the footnotes, God will write the headlines.
If we do little things, God will do the big things. But we have to do the little things like they are big things.
We cannot worry about what we cannot do; we have to simply do what we can.
No one is greater than their prayer life.
In the kingdom of God, humility equals authority.
Humility is how we get out of the way of what God wants to do.
Posturing our bodies helps us posture our hearts.
“We cannot outgive God.”
“A man can eat only one meal at a time, wear only one suit of clothes at a time, drive only one car at a time. All this I have. Isn’t that enough?”
The greatest legacy a person can leave is a complete surrender of their life to the lordship of Jesus Christ.
We grossly underestimate the authority that is ours because we are children of God.
Our biggest problem is our small view of God.
if we are praying in the will of God and for the glory of God, then agreeing with someone in prayer is like getting our prayer contract notarized.
Our most powerful prayers are chained to the promises of God.
We need to find a place where we are free from distraction, where we get good reception, where we can focus, and where our faith is strong.
if the Holy Spirit prompts us to pray, then we need to take a step of faith and mark God’s territory.
