Pray daily for pastors in the Slavic countries (as well as your own) that they will have wisdom and power from God to preach the Word effectually and to care for all of the saints. Pray that the convicting power of the Holy Spirit will accompany the preaching of God’s Word throughout all lands. Ask God to stir up Christians to use their God-given freedom to the fullest advantage in making known everywhere the Gospel of Jesus Christ. “Freely ye have received, freely give” (Matthew 10:8). |
Parents
You are entitled to extra years of life just for honoring your parents.
Patience
Be patient in the long process of developing patience.
Patriotism
You can delete God from my Pledge of Allegiance, exclude him from my classroom and remove him from my money; but you cannot take him from my heart.
Perfection
Apostle Paul made it clear he was not perfect; where does that leave me?
Performance
In the Olympic Games there are no medals for mediocre performance.
Persecution
Turn your “Light” off if you don't want to attract persecution.
Our Lord’s humble birth and self-sacrificing life are an example of how we too should live.
Philosophy
I wish there were a reliable way of gauging precisely how much either The World or The Word is influencing my philosophy of life.
The philosophy of this world is deadly poison coated with the delicious dark chocolate of deception.
The best philosophers and scientists are helpless to change human nature for the better.
Pleasure
The more you please the Lord the more you displease the world.
True pleasure is in pleasing God.
Pleasing my Heavenly Father should be my greatest pleasure.
When I make delighting in the Lord a way of life, my desires will be in tune with what pleases him.
God was pleased with Jesus because he didn’t please himself.
For the rest of your life rest in the Lord.
Politics
Biblical Correctness supersedes Political Correctness.
Let us not sacrifice God-given Individuality on the secular Altar of Society.
Poor
The poor have less to lose.
POV
An optimist sees a half-full glass; a pessimist sees a half-empty glass; a realist sees both.
If you want to see this world properly, get heaven's viewpoint.
Power
Power can’t corrupt anyone, but absolutely anyone can corrupt power.
Supernatural power is readily available to mere mortals – to do inhuman evil or to do godly good.
If you want to know the true character of a man, give him some power.
Prayer
The Comforter is my primary prayer partner.
The performance of praise and prayer has no intermission.
Every prayer request should contain (literally or figuratively) the Christ Clause: “Your will be done.”
Prayer is one weapon our Enemy cannot duplicate or destroy.
If the Lord doesn’t talk to me, there is a reason; if I don’t talk to the Lord, there is no excuse.
Pride
Satan is the personification of Pride; Jesus – of Humility.
If we get smug about our supposed superior spiritual knowledge, we need to be reminded that Apostle Paul readily admitted he knew “only in part.”
Promises
God's promises are proposed, not imposed.

The Lord will resume His dealing with the nations, as well as with the Chosen nation, when He has completed the church in this Age of Grace. God is working today “to take out” of the nations “a people for His name” (Acts 15:14). Ask God to empower every witness that is proclaiming this message of love to sinful men. Pray continually that the Holy Spirit will convict men of their need of Christ. “Neither is there salvation in any other; for there is none other name under heaven given among men, whereby we must be saved” (Acts 4:12). |
