But, instead, it is a will of Love. As you walk in the Father's Will, you always walk in the Light. You will never injure anyone. Your words will be saturated with love. You will walk in the light, for His will is the Light. You will walk in Love, for His will is Love. --E. W.

Our reasoning faculties can only apprehend the things that the five senses convey to them. Outside of that, the reasoning faculties are unfruitful. When our spirits are recreated they receive Eternal Life. We can know the Father. We can enjoy fellowship with Him through His Word. We have become so utterly identified with Him, so utterly one with Him, that the "vine and the branch" is the only suitable illustration of this new and beautiful relationship. -- E.W.

You rest in Him. You are His child; you are in His family; you are a branch of the Vine. He is the Husbandman. He cares for the vineyard. He knows about it. You are His fruit-producer. You are His connection with the unsaved world. You are His connection with the church and the people in your community. You have His life, His nature. You have His light and wisdom. You have His love. You have Him. He lives in you. By giving Him His place, you let Him have freedom in you. --E. W.

Will we at last let Him have His way? This is the pathway to revival. -- Frank Bartleman https://lepsfaithquotes.blogspot.com/2026/07/pathway-to-revival-72-thursday-thoughts.htmlnoreply@blogger.com (Larry A.

We know it holds the blessed hope and glorious consummation of the age and the return of the Savior from heaven. But before that, the church should be prepared for two things: revival and persecution. As in apostolic times these two went together, so surely it will be in these end times. And to the prayerful and watchful, there are significant signs that both are on the way. -- Frank Bartleman https://lepsfaithquotes.blogspot.com/2026/06/what-does-future-hold-71-wednesday.htmlnoreply@blogger.com (Larry A.

See you Wednesday. Every burden has been put over on the Master. You have come to recognize in Jesus and in the Father your perfect strength, your perfect rest, the place where nothing can disturb you. Philippians 4:6, "In nothing be anxious, but in everything by prayer and supplication with thanksgiving let your requests be made known unto God. And the peace of God, which passeth all understanding, shall guard your hearts and your thought in Christ Jesus." In nothing be fearful or anxious. Every anxiety has been committed to Him. This is God's formula for a life of victory. -- E. W. Kenyon. https://lepsfaithquotes.blogspot.com/2026/06/formula-for-victory-629-monday.htmlnoreply@blogger.com (Larry A.

If we could remember that we are living in the actual presence of God, our Father, and of Jesus all the time, we would see things differently. Jesus says in John 15:5, "I am the Vine and ye are the branches." Well, a branch is a part of the Vine and is in the presence of the Vine all the time. --E. W.

He wants us to be covered with the covering of His Spirit, and to grow in grace and the knowledge of God. Oh, what God has laid up for us, and what we may receive through the name of Jesus! Oh, the value of the name, the power of the name, the very name of Jesus brings help from heaven, and the very name of Jesus can bind evil powers and subdue all things unto Himself.

Darkness is Satan's family relationship. His kingdom is darkness. Darkness is hatred, jealousy, bitterness -- everything that Satan can impart to man. We have been delivered out of that and have been delivered out of the authority of it, so that it no longer dominates us or rules us. "And He has translate us by the New Creation into the kingdom of the Son of His love, in Whom we have our Redemption, the remission of our sins." --E. W.

The world may have happiness. They find that in their surroundings, their environment. But joy is a fruit of faith. It is a fruit that comes from the recreated spirit . . . The believer should never allow anything to rob him of his joy. -- E.W. Kenyon.https://lepsfaithquotes.blogspot.com/2026/06/jou-623-tuesday-truth.htmlnoreply@blogger.com (Larry A.

When an individual stops going forward for God, he begins to go in a circle, just as a man when lost in a forest ceases to go straight forward but wanders in a circle. So it was with the early church. When they ceased to go forward, they started wandering in a circle and became lost in the Dark Ages. The Devil... removed the cross, offering them titles, positions, honor, salaries, profits of every kind -- and they fell for it. They no longer needed to look for God for their protection and support... And so it is with our great church bodies of today. History repeats itself in every movement through human weakness and failure. -- Frank Bartleman (historian of the Azusa Revival)https://lepsfaithquotes.blogspot.com/2026/06/when-we-stop-going-forward-622-monday.htmlnoreply@blogger.com (Larry A.

Let us get so full that it will run right out through us, and not absorb and absorb, and never give out. -- Maria Woodworth-Etter https://lepsfaithquotes.blogspot.com/2026/06/like-sponge-619-friday-faith.htmlnoreply@blogger.com (Larry A.

God never changes. We have changed. We are not waiting for God. God is waiting for us. The Holy Spirit is given; we are still in the dispensation opened on the Day of Pentecost. But God can only work when we are willing, yielded, and obedient.

And the moment I do, He forgives me. It is wiped out as though it had never been. That instant that I confess it and tell the Father of it, Jesus says, "Lay that to My account." Notice that the Father has no memory of our past mistakes and failures. You must forget them too. -- E. W.

There never was such a time for Jesus Christ to be lifted up as He is today. Gods of science and nature and other gods are on the earth today. At a gathering of 23 ministers in Boston, only three accepted the divinity of Christ. We have to drop all side issues and hobbies, everything else but Jesus; we must lift up Jesus. -- Maria Woodworth-Etter (1844-1924)https://lepsfaithquotes.blogspot.com/2026/06/lift-up-jesus-616-tuesday-truth.htmlnoreply@blogger.com (Larry A.

Something wonderful is going to take place soon. The Mighty God, who inhabits eternity, and all the heavenly hosts have been waiting thousands of years for this great event: for the mystical body to come together -- Christ our living Head, and the bride, the living body -- for the Marriage of the Son of God, the Great Jehovah. "For the marriage of the Lamb is come" (Rev. 19:7). -- Maria Woodworth-Etter https://lepsfaithquotes.blogspot.com/2026/06/something-wonderful-625-monday.htmlnoreply@blogger.com (Larry A.

We should be as one family, which we are, at home in God's house anywhere. We belong to the whole body of Christ, both in heaven and on earth. God's church is one. It is a terrible thing to go about dismembering the body of Christ. How foolish and wicked the petty differences between Christians will appear in the light of eternity. -- Frank Bartleman, historian of the Azusa Street Revivalhttps://lepsfaithquotes.blogspot.com/2026/06/be-as-one-family-612-friday-faith.htmlnoreply@blogger.com (Larry A.

Love healed the sick. Love fed the hungry. It was love at work; it was God in Christ unveiling Himself. Love is the dominant law of God. Romans 13:10, "Love worketh no ill to his neighbor; love therefore is the fulfillment of the law." --E. W.

Oh, praise the Lord. He is calling out a people for a special purpose in these last days. He calls them the wise ones, a chosen generation, a nation called out from among the nations, a royal kingly nation or nation of kings, a holy priesthood, a special people, who confess that they are not of this world, for our citizenship and kingdom are not of this world.
