His divine power has granted to us all things that pertain to life and godliness, through the knowledge of him who called us to his own glory and excellence." 2 Peter 1:3
D.L. MOODYThere is glory for the time to come. A great many people seem to forget that the best is before us. Dr. Andrew Bonar once said that everything before the true believer is “glorious.” This thought took hold on my soul, and I began to look the matter up and see what I could find in Scripture that was glorious hereafter. I found that the kingdom …

Show him my salvation. Psalm 91:16
D.L. MOODYI believe we don’t learn the fringe of the subject of salvation down here. When our Master was on Earth, He said He had many more things to say, but He could not reveal them to His disciples because they were not ready to receive them. But when we go yonder, when these mortal bodies have put on immorality, when our spiritual faculties are loosed from the servitude of the flesh, I believe we shall be able to take more in. God will lead us from glory to glory, and show us …

And the angel said to me, “Write this: Blessed are those who are invited to the marriage supper of the Lamb.” And he said to me, “These are the true words of God.” Revelation 19:9
D.L. MOODYI would rather die tonight and be sure of sharing the bliss of the purified in yon world of light than live for centuries with the wealth of this world at my feet, and miss the marriage supper of the Lamb. I have missed many appointments in my life, but by the grace of God, I mean to make sure of that one. …

Vanity of vanities, says the Preacher; all is vanity. Ecclesiastes 12:8
D.L. MOODYThe worship of pleasure is slavery. (Solomon tried pleasure and found bitter disappointment, and down the ages has come the bitter cry, “All is vanity.”) There is no rest in sin. The wicked know nothing about rest. The Scriptures tell us the wicked “are like the troubled sea, when it cannot rest.” (Isaiah 57:20). Man, like the sea, has no rest. He has had no rest since Adam fell, and there is none for him until he returns to God again, and the light of Christ shines …

I will set him on high. Psalm 91:14, KJV
D.L. MOODYGod is able to do it. Up above the angels, up above the archangels, up above the cherubim and seraphim, on the throne with His own Son. We are called to be sons and daughters of the eternal God. Do you know, the Prince of Wales cannot sit on the throne with Queen Victoria? But it is not so yonder. Christ has gone up and taken His seat at the right hand of the Father, and every son and daughter of God is to be lifted up to the …

For we must all appear before the judgment seat of Christ, so that each one may receive what is due for what he has done in the body, whether good or evil. 2 Corinthians 5:10
D.L. MOODYSome people say that you never can tell till you are before the throne of judgment whether you are saved or not. Why, if our life is hid with Christ in God, we are not coming into judgment for our sins. We may come into judgment for reward. This is clearly taught where the lord reckoned with the servant to whom five …

And I heard a voice from heaven saying, “Write this: Blessed are the dead who die in the Lord from now on.” “Blessed indeed,” says the Spirit, “that they may rest from their labors, for their deeds follow them!" Revelation 14:13
D.L. MOODYThink of Paul up yonder. People are going up every day and hour, men and women who have been brought to Christ through Paul’s writings. He set streams in motion that have flowed on for more than a thousand years. I can imagine men going up to him and saying, “Paul, I thank you for writing that …

The one who conquers will have this heritage, and I will be his God and he will be my son. Revelation 21:7
D.L. MOODYAfter the Chicago fire, I met a man who said, “Moody, I hear you lost everything in the Chicago fire.” “Well,” I said, “you understood it wrong; I didn’t.” He said, “How much do you have left?” “I can’t tell you; I have got a good deal more left than I lost.” “You can’t tell how much you have?” “No.” “I didn’t know that you were ever that rich. What do you mean?” “I mean just …

In God I trust; I shall not be afraid. What can man do to me? Psalm 56:11
D.L. MOODYIf God has hid me in the secret pavilion, let men slander me and abuse me if they like! If I can say that God is my Father, Jesus is my Saviour, and heaven is my home, let the world rail, let the flesh do what it pleases, I will not be afraid of evil tidings, for my trust is in God! Is not that a good footing for eternity? “Heaven and earth shall pass away, but my words shall not …

So shall my word be that goes out from my mouth; it shall not return to me empty, but it shall accomplish that which I purpose, and shall succeed in the thing for which I sent it. Isaiah 55:11
D.L. MOODYSometimes it looks as if God’s servants fail. When Herod beheaded John the Baptist, it looked as if John’s mission was a failure. But was it? The voice that rang through the valley of the Jordan rings through the whole world today. You can hear its echo upon the mountains and the valleys yet, “He must increase, but I …
