Lovingly Demonstrating Your Weaknesses

 “If I’m a Christian, why are there so many things that make my life so difficult? God is lovingly demonstrating to you your weakness.” 

-Paul Washer

There's so much pain. Why are there so many things that I can't overcome? So many things that make my life so difficult. It's to demonstrate to you, God is lovingly demonstrating to you your weakness. Not to leave you in your weakness, but so that you might run to him. And then there will be times when he will sustain you in power.

And then all of a sudden, it just leaves. Why? Once again, to remind you lovingly, not in judgment, not to hurt you, but lovingly to remind you lovingly, not in judgment, not to hurt you, but lovingly to remind you once again, you're forgetting that this life and power comes from communion with me. Everything is about communion with him.

-Paul Washer

Empty Us

 'The Lord continues to empty us  in order to teach us to lay aside

all self-reliance that we may  cling to Christ alone."            --  PAUL WASHER

Confession, What is.

 "One of the genuine marks of being a Christian is not sinless perfection. One of the greatest marks of Genuine Christianity is that when we sin we are sensitive to it, and that sensitivity leads us to contrition and brokenness and ultimately confession. Christians are confessional people, and that does not just mean that we confess Jesus as Lord, but we are constantly agreeing with the Lord about our selves. The word confession, homologeo means, “to speak the same thing.” That God speaks to you through His Word and says, “You have anger in your heart.” Confession is not “Lord forgive me for my sins.”

Confession is “Lord I hear you and I speak the same thing.” “You say I have anger in my heart. You say I was proud at that moment. Lord I speak back to you the same thing. I agree with you about me. I confess that what you tell me is right and I repent.”

~ Paul Washer

A Praying Man

“A praying man is a useful man; Useful to God. Even a man of limited knowledge who is a man who spends much time in the presence of God is a useful man to God and a pleasing man to God.” - Paul Washer

The Work of Christ is Perfect

 

SPEND TIME

‎"There are preachers, teachers, and bloggers beyond number, but the great need of the church is men and women who spend time alone with God" ~Paul Washer

TWIST NOT

“People
tell me judge not lest ye be judged. I always tell them, twist not
scripture lest ye be like satan.”

-- Paul Washer

FROM FOR BY

"God saved you from Himself, God saved you for himself, and God saved you by himself."

-Paul Washer

HOW CAN

"Can I ask you a question? How can a dead man pass through a narrow gate?"

— Paul Washer
