171 Quotes by Patience Johnson about christianity
"Blind barthimus used his mouth and his feet to affect what wasn't working in his life? What do you use to affect what's not working in your life? God is not interested in your perfection, He is interested in your participation. It is your participation that attracts the presence of God."
"I don't just have only the peace of God, I do also have a God who gives peace, not just resources but the revelation of His presence."
"Be anxious for no thing, be concerned about the state of your soul and that of your children, be concerned about God's work in the world; these are genuine concern but when it comes to the things in your life.....be not anxious. If God is for us who can be against us?"
"If you can't see the assets in you, it will be hard for you to export it to the world. Recognise who you are and the world will recognise you."
"Have you ever asked yourself this question "what can God do through me?" The preacher has no platform if the people has no sense of mission."
"Don't think because you can't affect something at a great level that God can't use you in a great way. David didn't even train one day with the armies but He won the war. He didn't even have a weapon but he killed a giant."
"God wants to use you right where you are with what you have not what you do not have."
"Sometimes God wraps destiny in what we perceive as just another day. The same day that David's father asked him to go and deliver bread to his brothers in the field was the same day that God used him to bring goliath down. Take every minute in your life serious."
"Some people want to kill goliath but they do not want to attend to sheep. How can God use you to kill giants if you cannot follow simple instructions?"
"Sometimes we want God to use us to do big things when we would not even want to do the basics."
