“Whatever comes to pass, comes to pass by virtue of this absolute omnipotent will of God, which is the primary and supreme cause of all things. “Thou hast created all things, and for Thy pleasure they are and were created.” (Rev. 4:11)

(Jerome Zanchius; 1516-1590)

“All that we spiritually know of ourselves, all that we know of God, and of Jesus; and His Word, we owe to the teaching of the Holy Spirit; and all the real light, sanctification, strength and comfort we are made to possess on our way to glory, we must ascribe to Him.”

(Octavius Winslow; 1808-1878)

“All wonderful! Wonderful that the Spirit should strive with man; wonderful that God should bear with his backslidings; wonderful that God should love him not withstanding his pollutions; wonderful that God should persist in saving him in spite, as it were, of himself.”

(Henry Melvill’ 1709-1871)

“Let no appearing impossibilities make you question God’s accomplishment of any of his gracious words. Though you cannot see how the thing can be done, ‘tis enough, if God has said that he will do it…Though the valleys be so deep that we cannot see the bottom, and the mountains so high that we cannot see the tops of them, yet God knows how to raise the one and level the other.” (Timothy Cruso; 1656-1697)

“It was for the trial of their faith that these things happened to the Israelites, as do the trials of all Christians in all ages: and it is “after we have suffered awhile” that we may expect to be established, strengthened, settled.” (Brownlow North; 1741-1820)

“Answers to prayers are sweet cordials for the soul. We need not fear a frowning world while we rejoice in a prayer-hearing God.” (C.H. Spurgeon; 1834-1892)

“The weakest creature can quell the mightiest man, if God bid, go.” (Richard Clerke; 1634)

“The mighty God, without ceasing to be God, becomes man to redeem us. Wonder of wonders! The like of this never has been — never could be. Let the greatest king become the meanest beggar:–let the richest prince leave his palace for the vilest cell of a loathsome prison; it is as nothing to the act of Jesus, when He left heaven to put on Him the rags of our mortality.”

(Henry Law; 1797-1844)

“When matters are raveled and disordered, he can find out the right end of the thread, and how to disentangle us again; and when we have spoiled a business, he can dispose it for good, and make an advantage of those things which seem to obscure the glory of his name.”

(Thomas Manton; 1620-1677)

“Proved by the Father and having faith rigorously exercised is not pleasant. It will always expose what is erroneous and lacking, while purging and strengthening what is genuine and acceptable with God. The word appears gloriously precious until we are tried by its promise. ” (Psalms 105:19) (Unknown)
