Dwight L Moody

Do not deceive yourselves; God is not mocked: for whatever a man sows that shall he also reap. For he that sows to his flesh shall of the flesh reap corruption, but he that sows in the Spirit shall of the Spirit reap eternal life. (Galatians 6:7-8)We can't get away from the principle of reaping what we sow. If we sow good seed, we anticipate a great harvest. But if we sow weeds, we'll harvest no more than we sowed. The same is true spiritually and practically. If we want a reward in heaven, we must live for Christ. On the other hand, if we lie, cheat, swear, steal, get drunk, use drugs, or otherwise fulfill the lusts of the flesh, the reality is we'll pay the consequences both now and in eternity. No matter how much society tries to convince us otherwise, this law has proven to be true without fail. This is the bright truth held before us in this little book - if we sow good seed, we will reap a great harvest. While sowing and caring for the seed sown isn't without work, the promise of a great harvest is what keeps us going and what brings joy to our labors. Be assured that it is not in vain to spend much time pruning, weeding, and carefully watching over the garden of your heart and the hearts of those you love.

For here we have no continuing city, but we seek the one that is coming. - Hebrews 13:14Is heaven a reality to you, or does it still appear far off and uncertain? The goal of this book is to whet your appetite for heaven. A careful look at Scripture reveals that heaven is what every born-again believer is longing for. Our time on earth is only in a temporary dwelling place, and heaven is the true home of all God's children. A study of heaven can change how you approach each day, and even how you view others around you. As real as this life is, we are assured that heaven is just as real. While we must not neglect our present God-given duties, we must at the same time be preparing for our future home and should even be looking forward with great anticipation to our eternal home.

Original Title: Daniel the Prophet. New, updated edition. Riches and honour and life are the remuneration of humility and of the fear of the LORD. - Proverbs 22:4God will exalt us when the time is right. We needn't try to promote ourselves; we needn't struggle for position. Let God put us where He wants us and let us be true to God. It is better for a man to be right with God, even if he holds no great earthly position. It is honest and humble men whom God will promote, if He so desires. This study illustrates what Daniel did, and also what Danial didn't do, which caught the attention of God and kings alike. Few are the men in history of Daniel's caliber, even though the principles he followed can be implemented by all.

Hearken unto the voice of my cry, my King, and my God, for unto thee will I pray. - Psalm 5:2This book is a comprehensive study on the subject of prayer, and will show you that there are nine elements which are essential to true prayer. These elements are as follows: Adoration - We cannot meet God on a level at the start. We must approach him as one far beyond our reach or sight. Confession - Sin must be put out of the way. We cannot have any communion with God while there is any disobedience between us. Restitution - We have to make amends for the wrong, wherever possible. Thanksgiving - We must be thankful for what God has done for us already. Forgiveness - We must forgive others and pull any root of bitterness that might be growing. Unity - Loving one another brings power in prayer. Faith - There must be faith, which the preceding things produce. Petition - Thus influenced by the other things, we will be ready to offer direct petition, or requests, to God. There needs to be more petition in our prayers. Submission - After all these, there must come submission. While praying, we must be ready to accept the will of God. Dwight Moody expounds on these nine elements in this volume, using illustrations and stories to validate what he is saying and to help make the truths in this book stick. About the Author Dwight L.

Dwight Lyman Moody (D. L. Moody) (Born February 5, 183 - Died December 22, 1899) was one of the most prolific and influential American evangelists of the 19th century. He held evangelistic crusades in the United States and Great Britain, drawing crowds of up to 30,000 people. This book is the third in a series of books by Great Ministers of the past. This series is called: LIGHTHOUSE CHRISTIAN CLASSICS, and is published by Lighthouse International Ministries. It is estimated that Moody won a million souls, founded three Christian schools, launched a Christian publishing business, established a Christian conference center, and inspired thousands of preachers to win souls and conduct revival services all being accomplished in a 40-year period. He became known as the "Prince of Evangelists". "There can be no need for us to commend the living, blazing speech of our brother Moody. Who can equal him in natural simplicity all aglow with holy passion? "-Charles Spurgeon In this book, Mr. Moody answers many questions about Heaven. Where is Heaven? What about the inhabitants of Heaven? How do we get to Heaven? Mr Moody explains the certainty of God's promise of life beyond the grave, and the rewards that are in store for those who faithfully serve God. All of this wonderful information is gleaned from the Sacred Scriptures.

Now with a new foreword by J. Paul Nyquist. D. L. Moody writes, "It is like this. When a man enters the army, he is a member of the army the moment he enlists; he is just as much a member as a man who has been in the army ten or twenty years. But enlisting is one thing, and participating in a battle another." Originally published in 1894, "The Overcoming Life" is one of those little books you just have to read. It is quintessential D. L. Moody. Its blunt edge drives hard at the ways in which Christians are overcome in this life (spiritual warfare, sin, distraction, etc.) and then gives ample assistance as to how we might begin to live a life in Christ that overcomes the things that once took hold of us.
