For the Son of Man is as a man taking a far journey, who left his house, and gave authority to his servants, and to every man his work.Mark 13:34, KJV
D.L. MOODYIf you notice that verse carefully, it does not read “to every man some work,” or “to every man a work,” but “to every man his work.” And I believe that every man and woman living has a work laid out for them to do; that every man’s life is a plan of the Almighty, and that way back in the councils of eternity, God laid …

And he said to them, “Go into all the world and proclaim the gospel to the whole creation.” Mark 16:15
D.L. MOODYI can imagine Jesus saying: “Go search out the man who put that crown of thorns on my brow; tell him I will have a crown for him in my kingdom if he will accept salvation; and there shall not be a thorn in it. Find out that man who took the reed from my hand and smote my head, driving the thorns deeper into my brow. Tell him I want to give him a scepter. Go, seek …

For what does it profit a man to gain the whole world and forfeit his soul? Mark 8:36
D.L. MOODYO that we would wake up to the thought of what it is to be lost! The world has been rocked to sleep by Satan who is going up and down telling people it doesn’t mean anything. I believe in the old-fashioned heaven and hell. Christ came down to save us from a terrible hell, and any man who is cast down to hell from here must go in the full blaze of the gospel and over the mangled body …

For from within, out of the heart of man, come evil thoughts, sexual immorality, theft, murder, adultery, coveting, wickedness, deceit, sensuality, envy, slander, pride, foolishness. Mark 7:21–22
D.L. MOODYIf a man should advertise that he could take a correct photograph of people’s hearts, do you believe he would find any customers? There is not a man among us whom you could hire to have his photograph taken if you could photograph the real man. We got to have our faces taken, with our carefully arranged clothes and hair, and if the artist flatters us, we say, “Oh, yes, that’s …

Honor your father and your mother, that your days may be long in the land that the LORD your God is giving you. Exodus 20:12
D.L. MOODYThe one glimpse the Bible gives us of thirty out of the thirty-three years of Christ’s life on Earth shows that He did not come to destroy the Fifth Commandment. The secret of all those silent years is embodied in that verse in Luke’s Gospel—“And he went down with them, and came to Nazareth, and was subject unto them” (Luke 2:51). Did He not set an example of true filial love and care …

Do good…expecting nothing in return. Luke 6:35
D.L. MOODYLove never looks to see what it is going to get in return. I have generally found that those workers who are looking to see how much they are going to get from the Lord are never satisfied. But love does its work and makes no bargain.
ERWIN LUTZERAll of us have aspired to greatness. We would like to be remembered for doing something significant. That desire for significance is actually God-given because God put eternity in our hearts. In our fallenness, we look for significance in all the wrong …

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 …

Watch and pray that you may not enter into temptation. The spirit indeed is willing, but the flesh is weak. Matthew 26:41
D.L. MOODYThe flesh is weak. Is there anyone on Earth that dares to dispute that statement? Is there anything weaker under the sun than the human flesh? The spirit is willing. Most men would rather do the right thing, and even think they will do it. Tell them that they will do evil things inside of twelve months, and they would say, as the king did, “Is thy servant a dog, that he should do this great …

And suddenly, looking around, they no longer saw anyone with them but Jesus only. Mark 9:8
D.L. MOODYWhat a dark night it would have been if our Lord and Master had been caught up with Moses and Elijah, and no Christ had died for our sins. Oh, how Jesus Christ has lit up this world! But suppose He had gone up to heaven on the other side of Calvary and had never finished His work. Suppose that God, in His love for His Son, had said: “I can’t let those men spit upon you and smite you; I will …

Truly, I say to you, unless you turn and become like children, you will never enter the kingdom of heaven. Matthew 18:3
D.L. MOODYIt is a masterpiece of the devil to make us believe that children cannot understand religion. Would Christ have made children the standard of faith if He had known they were not capable of understanding His words? It is far easier for children to love and trust than for grown-up persons, and so we should set Christ before them as the supreme object of their choice.
