God is not man, that he should lie, or a son of man, that he should change his mind. Has he said, and will he not do it? Numbers 23:19
D.L. MOODYSuppose a man, directing me to the post office, gives me ten landmarks, and that in my progress, there I find nine of them to be as he told me. I should have good reason to believe that I was coming to the post office. And if, by believing, I get a new life and a hope, a peace, a joy, and a rest to my soul that …

So we see that they were unable to enter because of unbelief. Hebrews 3:19
D.L. MOODYWhen the Israelites first came out of Egypt, God would have led them right up into the land of Canaan if it had not been for their accursed unbelief. But they desired something besides God’s Word, so they were turned back and had to wander in the desert for forty years. I believe there are thousands of God’s children wandering in the wilderness still. The Lord has delivered them from the hand of the Egyptian and would, at once, take them through the wilderness …

For now we see in a mirror dimly, but then face to face. 1 Corinthians 13:12
D.L. MOODYFor now, we see God, as it were, in a mirror, but then, face to face. Suppose we knew nothing of the sun except what we saw of its light reflected from the moon? Would we not wonder about its immense distance, about its dazzling splendor, about its life-giving power? But all that we see, the sun, the moon, the stars, the ocean, the Earth, the flowers, and above all, man, are a grand mirror in which the perfection of God is …

Only the high priest goes, and he but once a year, and not without taking blood, which he offers for himself and for the unintentional sins of the people. Hebrews 9:7
D.L. MOODYLook at the Roman soldier as he pushed his spear into the very heart of the God-man. What a hellish deed! But what was the next thing that took place? Blood covered the spear! Oh! Thank God, the blood covers sin. The very crowning act of sin brought out the crowning act of love; the crowning act of wickedness was the crowning act of grace.

Our Father. Matthew 6:9
D.L. MOODYIf you ask me why God should love us, I cannot tell. I suppose it is because He is a true Father. It is His nature to love; just as it is the nature of the sun to shine.
ERWIN LUTZERWhat Moody doesn’t tell us here is that his own father was an alcoholic who died when Moody was about nine years old. Perhaps this is why the fact that God is our Heavenly Father was so precious to Moody. He didn’t have a father on Earth who loved him, but he did …

For I am not ashamed of the gospel, for it is the power of God for salvation to everyone who believes. Romans 1:16
D.L. MOODYI remember some meetings being held in a locality where the tide did not rise very quickly, and bitter and reproachful things were being said about the work. But one day, one of the most prominent men in the place rose and said: “I want it to be known that I am a disciple of Jesus Christ, and if there is any odium to be cast on His cause, I am prepared to take my …

And he did not do many mighty works there, because of their unbelief. Matthew 13:58
D.L. MOODYUnbelief is as much an enemy to the Christian as it is to the unconverted. It will keep back the blessing now as much as it did in the days of Christ. We read that in one place Christ could not do many mighty works because of unbelief. If Christ could not do this, how can we expect to accomplish anything if the people of God dare unbelieving? I contend that God’s children are alone able to hinder God’s work. Infidels, atheists, and …

Now faith is the assurance of things hoped for, the conviction of things not seen. Hebrews 11:1
D.L. MOODYThis is the biblical definition of faith. The best definition I ever saw outside the Bible is: Dependence on the veracity of another. In other words, Faith says Amen to everything that God says. Faith takes God without any “If’s.” If God says it, Faith says, “I believe it;” Faith says Amen to it.
ERWIN LUTZERVirtually every test we encounter in the Christian life comes down to two questions. First: “Is God trustworthy?” The second question is: “Will I …

[Abraham] grew strong in his faith. Romans 4:20
D.L. MOODYReal true faith is man’s weakness leaning on God’s strength. It is the Shepherd’s business to keep the sheep. Whoever heard of the sheep keeping the shepherd? People have an idea that they have to keep themselves and Christ too. It is a false idea. It is the work of the Shepherd to look after them and take care of those who trust Him. An Irishman said, on one occasion, that he often trembled, but his Rock never did.
ERWIN LUTZERHow do we keep believing in God when He …

The blood of Jesus his Son cleanses us from all sin. 1 John 1:7
D.L. MOODYYou may pile up your sins till they rise like a dark mountain, and then multiply them by ten thousand, taking into account those you cannot think of: and after you have tried to enumerate all the sins you have ever committed, just let me give you one verse, “The blood of Jesus his Son cleanses us from all sin,” and that mountain will melt away.
ERWIN LUTZERWe all have within us a sin factory, manufacturing truckload after truckload of sin. Jesus said …
