Kindle Notes & Highlights
We see Mary only three times in Scripture, yet in every instance, she is at Jesus’ feet
She broke through busyness, distraction, and anxiety.
You know you are serving in a wrong spirit when you become aware of what other people are not doing. This kind of serving will ultimately lead to accusation against Jesus concerning His empathy and fairness.
In the simplest terms, it means making a time and place sacred and consistent, where you meet with God and it’s just you, Him, and your Bible. This one decision will dramatically alter everything in your life, and the enemy understands this more than most believers do.
“By Your blood, I’m clean, I’m righteous, and I’m blameless in Your sight.”
I’m convinced that the present-day Church and its leadership are simply not equipped internally to handle what is coming externally—it’s fire! It’s the glory of God and the shaking of everything that can be shaken.
must draw close to God and each other to navigate these days because they won’t get any easier than today.
what if the wilderness is where we are called to live while on this earthly pilgrimage?
We need leaders who pray more than talk. We need leaders who have learned the lost art of waiting on God and making ministry to Him their first ministry.
We need leaders who are the same in public as they are in secret.
This is the climax of Jesus’ teaching on prayer. He is good, and no matter what walls you hit, don’t quit.
Building a time and place for God to come and fill is one of the strongest prophetic words that I believe the Holy Spirit is speaking to the Church in this hour.
I believe that one of the most besetting sins in this generation is laziness.
The lazy person will make excuses, state they haven’t been given what they need, and yet the whole time it was right there before them.
the call to early morning prayer especially releases the death blow to the spirit of laziness found in our sleeping habits.
That is wisdom. It’s the practical daily steps I take to get to my destination. Revelation in our spiritual lives is the excellency of the knowledge of Christ Jesus our Lord. He, then, is our ultimate destination.
The fear of the Lord knows that what we do in secret is as important as what we do in public.
The word contrite means lame and broken, so God is actually looking for the broken, dependent, interior life in which to make His home.
There are no superheroes in the Kingdom. There are simply weak people who long for more and who don’t give up.
Early morning prayer saved me from stupid decisions after 10:00 p.m. because I’ve made many stupid decisions after 10:00 p.m.
When God’s voice is the first voice you hear in the morning, it brings alignment to every other voice you hear throughout your day.
but I don’t want to be an echo. I want to be a voice.
