Biblical Inspiration Quotes

“I want to guide you on this creative journey to see how our creativity is Spiritually rooted in God. It is a God-given skill that we all can use to praise and glorify Him.”

“The Qur’an does not hesitate to retell biblical incidents with modifications—or to introduce entirely new vignettes around iconic biblical figures. As a book purposely not constructed around a formal narrative, the Qur’an leverages these allusions primarily to emphasize a moral value rather than re- veal an origin story. Every time the Qur’an presents a story, it always follows with terse analyses synthesizing key takeaways.”

“Have you ever experienced something in your life you never thought would touch you or your family? Have you ever felt like, ‘God! I thought we were friends, you and me? I thought you loved me. You don’t even seem to be acting according to You Word!’ …I have.”

“We may say, ‘God works all things together or good.’ But if we are not waiting with expectation for our ashes to turn to beauty, this remains head knowledge—not a reflection of our faith in a God who works the impossible on our behalf, simply because He loves us.”

“Holding an expectation of God actually honors Him. A heart of faith-filled expectation says, ‘I know You are good. I know You are all-powerful. I know You are a loving Father and a faithful friend, and I anticipate You being just that.”

“My focus had to be on God and who He is, not on the enemy and what he was doing. Darkness feeds on attention and fear, and I wasn't going to offer it any nourishment.”

“When you are going through a dark time, one side effect can be to forget the power and the goodness of God. When God isn’t doing what you think He should, it is easy to focus on the problem, and it suddenly becomes larger than the solution—which is God Himself.”

“We have often mistaken the seasons of ease in our lives for God’s blessing. God has blessed us, but what we don’t understand is that sometimes He is blessing us even more when everything appears to be falling apart at the seams.”

“God pushes us to offense—without explanation—and asks us the same question Jesus asked His disciples, ‘Do you also want to go away?’ And then we have a choice. We either believe or we don’t. We either let Him be God, or we put Him in a box.”

“As we know Him (intimately), sin loses its grip on us. Our love for Him deepens, and serving Him becomes a great joy and fulfillment, not a drudgery birthed out of performance.”

“Is it worth the sacrifice? Is it worth the cost? There was a time I told the Lord to “pick someone else. This is too hard!” I’m so thankful He turned a deaf ear.”

“So how can God take something tragic in our lives and bring good from it? The answer isn’t found so much in the ‘how,’ but in the ‘Who.’ The answer is found in who God is. It is found in His character. It is found in the essence of His presence, in the fragrance of His being. …It is found in a love so encompassing—so extravagant—we have not the mind to comprehend it.”

“It is a weapon of spiritual warfare to rejoice in the Lord, in full confidence of what God will produce from your darkness, and in the face of insurmountable evidence to the contrary.”

“Any place where my heart believes I have more love, compassion or mercy than God, I have elevated myself above Him and am believing a lie. And any place where I have placed limits on His love and power, I have humanized Him and reduced Him to what my mind can comprehend.”

“Ask Him for wisdom to understand what is actually the enemy at work in your life versus what is simply God allowing you to be buffeted and trained for your destiny.”

“No one is meant to fight a war against the enemy in vain. God delights in granting our request for redemptive spoils of our spiritual warfare.”

“We are not meant to come through our battles as merely survivors. We are meant to come off the battlefield as victors, and to lead others out to victory, as well.”

“In the midst of our most profound pain, there is often great relief in laying all our hurts and fears before our Heavenly Father. He already knows the turmoil or trials in our lives, but there's something freeing about talking to Him, unloading our burdens and taking up His assurances to serve as our strength and our shield, our refuge and hiding place.”

“.....fertility in the ancient world was about much more than just having children. Fertility, the life created and carried by women, was considered a sign of God's favor. For Rachel, her lack of fertility must have felt like a curse. Was infertility to be her reward for everything she had gone through? She had waited seven long years for her chance to marry Jacob and have children. Surely, God would reward her! But it seemed she got only heartache instead.”

“Stop taking your creativity for granted, or even worse, forgetting it altogether. You are a child of God! He has given you not only the right to be creative, but also the capacity for creativity!”

“We live in a fallen world. We make mistakes. Recipes are misleading. Winging it can be dangerous if you don't know how to fly. Whatever the reason, some things just don't turn out for us because we simply aren't God.”
