I give them eternal life, and they will never perish, and no one will snatch them out of my hand.My Father, who has given them to me, is greater than all, and no one is able to snatch them out of the Father’s hand.I and the Father are one. John 10:28–30
D.L. MOODYThese are precious verses to those who are afraid of falling, who fear they will not hold out. It is God’s work to hold. It is the Shepherd’s business to keep the sheep. Whoever heard of the sheep going to bring back the shepherd? People …

But the wicked are like the tossing sea; for it cannot be quiet, and its waters toss up mire and dirt. Isaiah 57:20
D.L. MOODYThe only thing that can keep us from peace is sin. God turns the way of the wicked upside down. “There is no peace unto the wicked,” says God (Isaiah 48:22). They are like the troubled sea that cannot rest, casting up filth and mire all the while; but peace with God by faith in Jesus Christ, peace through the knowledge of forgiven sin is like a rock—the waters go dashing and surging past, but …

You are not under law but under grace. Romans 6:14
D.L. MOODYWhen Moses was in Egypt, to punish Pharaoh, he turned the waters into blood. When Christ was on Earth He turned the water into wine. That is the difference between law and grace. The law says, “Kill him;” grace says, “Forgive him.” Law says, “Condemn him;” grace says, “Love him.” When the law came out of Horeb, three thousand men were destroyed. (Exodus 32:28). At Pentecost, under grace, three thousand men found life (Acts 2:41). What a difference! When Moses came to the burning bush, he was commanded …

The promised Holy Spirit, who is the guarantee of our inheritance. Ephesians 1:13–14
D.L. MOODYA poor woman once told Rowland Hill that the way to heaven was short, easy, and simple; comprising only three steps—out of self, into Christ, and into glory. We have a shorter way now—out of self and into Christ. That way is the kingdom of heaven begun below—a little of what awaits us in glory.
ERWIN LUTZERD.L. Moody’s preaching was characterized by simplicity, directness, and deep conviction. He used visual imagery, challenging both the unsaved and the Christians of his day. As far as …

And every work that he undertook…he did with all his heart. 2 Chronicles 31:21
D.L. MOODYIn all ages, God has used those people who were in earnest. Satan always calls idle men into his service. God calls active and earnest—not indolent men. You remember where Elijah found Elisha ploughing in the field? Gideon was at the threshing floor. Moses was away in Horeb looking after the sheep. None of these were indolent men; what they did, they did with all their might. We want such men and women nowadays. If we cannot do God’s work with all the knowledge …

For we do not wrestle against flesh and blood, but against the rulers, against the authorities, against the cosmic powers over this present darkness,against the spiritual forces of evil in the heavenly places. Ephesians 6:12
D.L. MOODYThe reason why so many Christians fail all through life is just this—they underestimate the strength of the enemy. We have a terrible enemy to contend with. Don’t let Satan deceive us. Unless we are spiritually dead, it means warfare. Nearly everything around tends to draw us away from God. We do not step clear out of Egypt on to the throne of …

And to the one who does not work but believes in him who justifies the ungodly, his faith is counted as righteousness. Romans 4:5
D.L. MOODYThe thief had nails through both hands, so he could not work; and a nail through each foot, so he could not run errands for the Lord. He could not lift a hand or a foot toward his salvation, and yet Christ offered him the gift of God, and he took it. He threw him a passport, and took him with Him into paradise.
ERWIN LUTZERLook again at this remarkable conversion story—the thief …

I am the light of the world. John 8:12
D.L. MOODYI heard of an unbeliever once who said, “Look at your convert; it is all moonshine [total lies].” The young convert replied to him, “I thank you for the compliment. We are perfectly willing to be called that. The moon borrows the light from the sun, and so we borrow ours from Christ.”
ERWIN LUTZERAgain, we are reminded that the moon has no light of its own, it only reflects the light of the sun. Just so, we have no spiritual light apart from our dependence on Christ. …

Gracious words are like a honeycomb, sweetness to the soul and health to the body. Proverbs 16:24
D.L. MOODYI remember hearing of a man in one of the hospitals who received a bouquet of flowers on behalf of the Flower Mission. He looked at the beautiful bouquet and said: “Well, if I had known that a bunch of flowers could do a fellow so much good, I would have sent some myself when I was well.” If people only knew how they might cheer some lonely heart and lift up some drooping spirit, or speak some word that shall …

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. MOODYI would a thousand times rather stand on that verse than all the frames and feelings I ever had. I took my stand there twenty years ago. Since then, the dark waves of hell have come dashing up against me; the waves of persecution have broken all around me; doubts, fears, and unbelief, in turn, have assailed me; but I have been able to …
