He will be purifying you all the time and lifting you higher, and you will know you are not of this world.”

Read it through, write it down, pray it in, work it out, and then pass it on. Truly it is the Word of God. It brings into man the personality of God; it changes the man until he becomes the epistle of God. It transforms his mind, changes his character, takes him on from grace to grace, and gives him an inheritance in the Spirit. God comes in, dwells in, walks in, talks through, and sups with him.”

By faith and faith alone do we enter into a knowledge of the attributes and become partakers of the beatitudes, and participate in the glories of our ascended Lord. All His promises are Yea and Amen to them that believe.”
“God wants to give you a faith that shakes hell!”
“Be filled to overflowing with the Spirit. We are no good if we have only a full cup; we need to have an overflowing cup!”
