AWESOME QUOTES AND QUESTIONS!

I just wanted to quickly update everyone on the week. We have had a great week. Things are incredibly busy, but worthy of the time! Our kids have adjusted so well and are extremely happy here. We thank you for the prayers, letters, and other encouragements already! Below, I am going to list some quotes and questions that challenged me in a HUGE way on Friday during one of our sessions! I urge you to think about these quotes and questions and ask the Holy Spirit to speak to you through these as well!



QUOTES AND QUESTIONS:



1) There is a metiocre Christianity in the west that does not need to be transplanted to the nations!

2) Many Western churches are experiencing a spiritual drought!

3) The biggest treat on the mission field is finding passionate Christianity in believing nationals.

4) The enemy is sharpening his tools waiting for me.

5) You cannot live off the sap you have stored up for very long. The only way to survive is a fresh cup of living water each morning!

6) All you need to do is inspect the fruit of your life to determine the vibrancy of your walk with Christ!

7) The enemy just wants to get one little hook in your heart so he can cover it over. He repeats this process over and over.

8) BE HOLY BECAUSE I AM HOLY!

9) You cannot look into this country for your standard of righteousness.

10) What compromises have I made? What excuses do I give?

11) Are you filled by the Spirit? Are you walking in the Spirit? Are you led by the Spirit?

12) The Spirit cannot fill a dirty vessel!

13) We are missing so much that God wants to put into our lives!

14) Do you anticipate reading the newspaper more than reading the Word of God?

15) If the Holy Spirit were loosed to all believers, the world would be turned upside down again!

16) IF YOU HOLD INEQUITY IN YOUR HEART, YOUR PRAYERS WILL NOT BE HEARD!

17) Our struggle is always with our pride!

18) It's hard to groan after something you know nothing about!

19) We have become lamps with no lights!

20) Where is the body of Christ who will stand up and say, "Thus saith the Lord!"

21) Other religions are popping up everywhere throughout our country as we sit idly by and watch!

22) People's capacity for suffering is much greater in other countries than here in America!

We so desperately need a revival of the American church! Pray that God would lead you to become more passionate about Him and about spreading the gospel at home as well as to the nations!!!
