WHAT EXCITES YOU
Charles Finney 1792-1875
“Many people are more excited by other subjects than the Lord. You find them talking about politics or philosophy, and if you bring up Christianity, the conversation immediately stops. They would rather talk about animal feelings, showing that the Lord is not the subject that is nearest their hearts. A man is always most easily excited about that subject that lies nearest his heart. When you can talk early and late about the news and other worldly topics but cannot possibly be interested in the Lord, you know that your heart is not in it. If you pretend to be a servant of God, you are a hypocrite.”

STOP WORKING
Charles Finney 1792-1875
"Many people profess to be the servants of God but are eagerly gathering property and planning to retire in the country. Has God given you a right to a perpetual Sabbath as soon as you have made a lot of money? Did God tell you, when you professed to enter His service, to work hard for so many years and then have a continual holiday? Did He promise to excuse you after that from making the most of your time and talents and let you live at ease the rest of your days? If your thoughts are set upon this, you are not serving God but your own selfishness and sloth.”

FRUITFULNESS
David Wilkerson 1931-2011
“Jesus was totally given to the Father and that was everything to him. He stated, I don't do or say anything except what my Father tells me.

So, do you want to bear the much fruit that springs forth from becoming more like Christ? We fulfill our life's purpose only as we begin to love others as Christ has loved us. And we grow more Christ-like as our love for others increases.

As the Father hath loved me, so have I loved you: continue ye in my love (John 15:9). His command is clear and simple: Go and love others. Give to others the unconditional love I have shown you. We grow more Christ like as our love for others increases. Simply put, bearing fruit comes down to how we treat people.”

THE SPIRIT OF TRUTH
Smith Wigglesworth 1859-1947
“The Holy Spirit, who inspired the Word, is called the Spirit of Truth; and as we receive with meekness the engrafted Word, faith springs in our heart, faith in the sacrifice of Calvary; faith in the shed blood of Jesus; faith in the fact that He took our weakness upon Himself; has borne our sicknesses and carried our pains and that He is our life today.”

SUBMIT TO ONE ANOTHER
Smith Wigglesworth 1859-1947
“God has chosen us to help one another. We dare not be independent. He brings us to a place where we submit ourselves to one another. If we refuse to do this, we get away from the Word of God and out of the place of faith.”
