10 Powerful Lessons from Kay Arthur

 

Looking for some inspiration in your day today? Here are 10 powerful lessons from Kay Arthur:

“God knows what each one of us is dealing with. He knows our pressures. He knows our conflicts. And He has made a provision for each and every one of them. That provision is Himself in the person of the Holy Spirit, indwelling us and empowering us to respond rightly.”

“If you don’t plan to live the Christian life totally committed to knowing your God and to walking in obedience to Him, then don’t begin; for this is what Christianity is all about. It is a change of citizenship, a change of governments, a change of allegiance. If you have no intention of letting Christ rule your life, then forget Christianity; it’s not for you.”

“The disappointment has come – not because God desires to hurt you or make you miserable or to demoralize you or ruin your life or keep you from ever knowing happiness. He wants you to be perfect and complete in every aspect, lacking nothing. It’s not the easy times that make you more like Jesus, but the hard times.”

“When we are set free from the bondage of pleasing others, when we are free from currying others’ approval–then no one will be able to make us miserable or dissatisfied. And then, if we know we have pleased God, contentment will be our consolation.”

“What is courage? It is the ability to be strong in trust, in conviction, in obedience. To be courageous is to step out in faith – to trust and obey, no matter what.”

“Ultimately, the goal of personal Bible study is a transformed life and a deep and abiding relationship with Jesus Christ.”

“Most of the world around you doesn’t read the Bible. So… God gives the world a living epistle- you.”

“He has held me when I have had no more strength and have wondered how I would ever make it. He has held me when I have felt defeated by all that I had to do. When I have run to my El Shaddai, I have never come away wanting. He is my all-sufficient One. O Beloved, do you understand? Have you experienced Him as your El Shaddai? If not, He is waiting – arms opened wide – for you.”

“You can be defeated by life’s unavoidable disappointments, or you can become stronger because of them.”

“When you know what God says, what He means, and how to put His truths into practice, you will be equipped for every circumstance of life.”
