But he said to me, “My grace is sufficient for you, for my power is made perfect in weakness.” Therefore I will boast all the more gladly of my weaknesses, so that the power of Christ may rest upon me. 2 Corinthians 12:9
D.L. MOODYI find many Christians worry about the future; they think they will not have grace enough to die by. It is much more important that we should have grace enough to live by. It seems to me that death is of very little importance in the meantime. When the dying hour comes, there will be …

For if we are beside ourselves, it is for God; if we are in our right mind, it is for you. 2 Corinthians 5:13
D.L. MOODYIn my opinion, no one is fit for God’s service until he is willing to be considered mad by the world. They said Paul was mad. I wish we had many more who were bitten with the same kind of madness.
ERWIN LUTZERThere are times when Christians might appear mad to the people of the world. In response to Paul’s teaching, the Roman officer Festus said, “Paul you are out of your mind, …

Truly, truly, I say to you, whoever hears my word and believes him who sent me has eternal life. He does not come into judgment, but has passed from death to life. John 5:24
D.L. MOODYNote that the difference between a believer and unbeliever is right here. An unbeliever is living in his day, and he has nothing but a long dark eternal night to look forward to; a Christian is now living in his night, and he has a grand morning that he is looking forward to. The day is ahead, the glory is ahead, the best of …

And Zacchaeus stood and said to the Lord, “Behold, Lord, the half of my goods I give to the poor. And if I have defrauded anyone of anything, I restore it fourfold.” Luke 19:8
D.L. MOODYA short speech, but how the words have come ringing down through the ages! By making that remark, Zacchaeus confessed his sin—that he had been dishonest. Besides that, he showed that he knew the requirements of the law of Moses. If a man had taken what did not belong to him, he was not only to return it, but to multiply it by four. …

Therefore, if anyone is in Christ, he is a new creation. The old has passed away; behold, the new has come. 2 Corinthians 5:17
D.L. MOODYI saw an advertisement which read like this: “If you want people to respect you, wear good clothes.” This is the world’s idea of getting the world’s respect. Why! A leper may put on good clothes, but he is a leper still. Mere profession of faith doesn’t transform a man. It is the new nature spoken of in Corinthians, “Therefore if any man be in Christ, he is a new creature; old things are …

The final report of the sexual misconduct of the late Ravi Zacharias was released last week. Many of us knew the findings would be devastating due to a preliminary report issued several months ago, and even before that report, credible accounts started to surface about his personal lifestyle, rife with sexual dalliances. Reading the report makes us shake our heads in disbelief. How could someone who came across as brilliant, gifted, and credible lead a secret life of such utter slavery to sexual sin?
What do we say?
I’ve heard remarks like, “He is suffering in hell” or, “We are …

And my God will supply every need of yours according to his riches in glory in Christ Jesus. Philippians 4:19
D.L. MOODYLook at these words carefully. It does not say He will supply our wants. There are many things we want that God has not promised to give. It is our need, and all our need. My children often want many things they do not get; but I supply all they need if it is in my power to do it. I do not supply all their wants by any means. And so, though God may withhold …

For the sake of Christ, then, I am content with weaknesses, insults, hardships, persecutions, and calamities. For when I am weak, then I am strong. 2 Corinthians 12:10
D.L. MOODYThe devil thought he had done a very wise thing when he got Paul into prison, but he was very mistaken; he overdid it for once. I have no doubt Paul has thanked God ever since for that Philippian jail and for his stripes and imprisonment there. The world has made more by it than we shall ever know till we get to heaven.
ERWIN LUTZERWhen Paul had a …

Therefore go out from their midst, and be separate from them, says the Lord, and touch no unclean thing; then I will welcome you. 2 Corinthians 6:17
D.L. MOODYI believe that a Christian should lead a separated life. The line between the church and the world is almost obliterated today. I have no sympathy with the idea that you must hunt up an old musty church record in order to find out whether a man is a member of the church or not. A man ought to live so that everybody will know he is a Christian. The Bible …

Therefore, my beloved, as you have always obeyed, so now, not only as in my presence but much more in my absence, work out your own salvation with fear and trembling, for it is God who works in you, both to will and to work for his good pleasure. Philippians 2:12–13
D.L. MOODYI have very little sympathy with any man who has been redeemed by the precious blood of the Son of God and who has not got the “spirit” of work. If we are children of God, we ought not to have a lazy drop of blood in …
