Top Spiritual Blessing Quotes

Spiritual Blessing Quotes By A.B. Simpson

We begin life with the natural, next we come into the spiritual; but then, when we have truly received the kingdom of God and His righteousness, the natural is added to the spiritual, and we are able to receive the gifts of His providence and the blessings of life without becoming centered in them or allowing them to separate us from Him. — A.B. Simpson

Spiritual Blessing Quotes By Oswald Chambers

We have to realize that we cannot earn or win anything from God through our own efforts. We must either receive it as a gift or do without it. The greatest spiritual blessing we receive is when we come to the knowledge that we are destitute. Until we get there, our Lord is powerless. He can do nothing for us as long as we think we are sufficient in and of ourselves. We must enter into His kingdom through the door of destitution. — Oswald Chambers

Spiritual Blessing Quotes By Mata Amritanandamayi

With the exception of very few who have gained higher spiritual tendencies in prior lives, Self-realization is not possible for anyone without the blessings of a guru. Think of the guru as the manifestation of God in this world. Take even the most insignificant word of the guru as an order and obey it. That is the real service to the guru. There is no greater austerity. The guru's blessings flow automatically to any obedient disciple. That is the real service to the guru. — Mata Amritanandamayi

Spiritual Blessing Quotes By Lailah Gifty Akita

The gift of today is a sacred-blessing. — Lailah Gifty Akita

Spiritual Blessing Quotes By J. Sidlow Baxter

I care not what black spiritual crisis we may come through or what delightful spiritual Canaan we may enter, no blessing of the Christian life becomes continually possessed unless we are men and women of regular, daily, unhurried secret lingerings in prayer. — J. Sidlow Baxter

Spiritual Blessing Quotes By Theodore L. Cuyler

Any church which forsakes the regular and uniform for the periodical and spasmodic service of God, is doomed to decay; any church which relies for its spiritual strength and growth entirely upon seasons of "revival," will very soon have no genuine revivals to rely on. Our holy God will not conform His blessings to man's moods and moral caprice. If a church is declining, it may require a "revival" to restore it; but what need was there of its declining? — Theodore L. Cuyler

Spiritual Blessing Quotes By Sunday Adelaja

What you do with your time daily is essential for spiritual and physical growth — Sunday Adelaja

Spiritual Blessing Quotes By Lydia Hoyt Farmer

Happy is that mother whose ability to help her children continues on from babyhood and manhood into maturity. Blessed is the son who need not leave his mother at the threshold of the world's activities, but may always and everywhere have her blessing and her help. Thrice blessed are the son and the mother between whom there exists an association not only physical and affectional, but spiritual and intellectual, and broad and wise as is the scope of each being. — Lydia Hoyt Farmer

Spiritual Blessing Quotes By Tim Challies

We deliberately forget because forgetting is a blessing. On both an emotional level and a spiritual level, forgetting is a natural part of the human experience and a natural function of the human brain. It is a feature, not a bug, one that saves us from being owned by our memories. Can a world that never forgets be a world that truly forgives? — Tim Challies

Spiritual Blessing Quotes By Lailah Gifty Akita

Why not?" Ask God to bless you. He has enough blessings for every one. — Lailah Gifty Akita

Spiritual Blessing Quotes By Abraham Joshua Heschel

Spiritual life begins to decay when we fail to sense the grandeur of what is eternal in time. Our intention here is not to deprecate the world of space. To disparage space and the blessing of things of space, is to disparage the works of creation, the works which God beheld and saw "it was good." The world cannot be seen exclusively sub specie temporis. Time and space are interrelated. To overlook either of them is to be partially blind. What we plead against is man's unconditional surrender to space, his enslavement to things. We must not forget that it is not a thing that lends significance to a moment; it is the moment that lends significance to things. — Abraham Joshua Heschel

Spiritual Blessing Quotes By Ezra Taft Benson

We are recipients of God's choicest blessings. We enjoy an abundance of material things beyond that enjoyed by any other nation in the history of the world; but unless we keep alive a realization that all these blessings come from God and are a part of our great spiritual heritage, they may crumble as ashes in our hands. "In nothing doth man offend God, or against none is his wrath kindled, save those who confess not his hand in all things and obey not his commandments." — Ezra Taft Benson

Spiritual Blessing Quotes By David McGee

Every source of blessing is a point of attack. — David McGee

Spiritual Blessing Quotes By Lailah Gifty Akita

Life is never a competition. — Lailah Gifty Akita

Spiritual Blessing Quotes By Lailah Gifty Akita

Each day, I count 100 times my blessings. What sacred-thanks? — Lailah Gifty Akita

Spiritual Blessing Quotes By Carlos Castaneda

The basic difference between an ordinary man and a warrior is that a warrior takes everything as a challenge while an ordinary man takes everything as a blessing or a curse. — Carlos Castaneda

Spiritual Blessing Quotes By Jonathan Cahn

And America has done much good. And there's no shortage of nations far exceeding any of its faults or sins. But no nation in the modern world has ever been given so much. None has been so blessed. To whom much is given, much is required. If a nation so blessed by God should turn away from Him, what then? It's blessing will be replaced with curses? Yes. And has America turned away from God? I asked. It has turned and is turning. How? In the same way Israel turned. It started with a spiritual complacency, then spiritual confusion, then the merging of God with idols and then, ultimately, the rejection of his ways. Just as with ancient Israel, America began ruling God out of its life, turning, step by step, against His ways, at first subtly and then more and more brazenly. — Jonathan Cahn

Spiritual Blessing Quotes By Lailah Gifty Akita

May God bless you and your family. — Lailah Gifty Akita

Spiritual Blessing Quotes By Watchman Nee

As long as you are in Christ, what you are in yourself does not count. If only you are in the bottle, whatever happens to the bottle happens to you. This is the glad tidings. So we declare that the gospel is free grace. Basically, it does not depend on you. If you are in Christ, then all is yours. For all spiritual blessings in the heavenly places have been given to us in Christ Jesus. There is no way for God not to give all these spiritual blessings to us if we are in Christ. He himself has placed us in Christ; therefore, He cannot withhold any blessing from us. Nothing can be withheld. — Watchman Nee

Spiritual Blessing Quotes By Lailah Gifty Akita

Today is a sacred moment. — Lailah Gifty Akita

Spiritual Blessing Quotes By Pat Robertson

I also pray for favor and His anointing on my life and ministry that I might have spiritual blessing when I minister to people. They're my principal prayers; I don't have a prayer list that I go down. — Pat Robertson

Spiritual Blessing Quotes By Oswald Chambers

Beware of any work for God that causes or allows you to avoid concentrating on Him. A great number of Christian workers worship their work. The only concern of Christian workers should be their concentration on God. This will mean that all the other boundaries of life, whether they are mental, moral, or spiritual limits, are completely free with the freedom God gives His child; that is, a worshiping child, not a wayward one. A worker who lacks this serious controlling emphasis of concentration on God is apt to become overly burdened by his work. He is a slave to his own limits, having no freedom of his body, mind, or spirit. Consequently, he becomes burned out and defeated. There is no freedom and no delight in life at all. His nerves, mind, and heart are so overwhelmed that God's blessing cannot rest on him. — Oswald Chambers

Spiritual Blessing Quotes By Margaret D. Nadauld

It is a holy blessing to be born with the exquisite qualities of a daughter of God. Women of God, both old and young, are spiritual and sensitive, tender and gentle. They have a kind, nurturing nature. This is your inheritance. Never belittle the gifts God has given to you. Develop the divinity that is within you. — Margaret D. Nadauld

Spiritual Blessing Quotes By Alan Redpath

Oh, from what heights of blessing it is possible for a man to fall! To what depths of sin a man can descend, even with all that spiritual background! The higher the pinnacle of blessing, authority, and publicity he has attained by grace, the deeper and more staggering can be his collapse. There is never a day in any man's life but that he is dependent upon the grace of God for power and the blood of Jesus for cleansing. — Alan Redpath

Spiritual Blessing Quotes By Maya Tiwari

When people come to me, they come usually for spiritual blessings, they come for the heart to be opened, because if it's not, we're not going to be able to channel our way through the course, and I think that most people know that there is that understanding that something has to open within us before we begin to resolve our problems, and so it is at all levels that they come. — Maya Tiwari

Spiritual Blessing Quotes By Rick Warren

Your spiritual gifts were not given for your own benefit but for the benefit of others, just as other people were given gifts for your benefit. — Rick Warren

Spiritual Blessing Quotes By Dallin H. Oaks

And so we understand that the atonement of Jesus Christ gives us the opportunity to overcome spiritual death that results from sin, and, through making and keeping sacred covenants, to have the blessings of eternal life. — Dallin H. Oaks

Spiritual Blessing Quotes By Peace Pilgrim

People have had to make up for their spiritual impoverishment by accumulating material things. When spiritual blessings come, material blessings seem unimportant. As long as we desire material things this is all we receive, and we remain spiritually impoverished. — Peace Pilgrim

Spiritual Blessing Quotes By J.C. Ryle

It is of mercy that we are not in hell. It is of mercy that we have the hope of heaven. It is of mercy that we live in a land of spiritual light. It is of mercy that we have been called by the Spirit, and not left to reap the fruit of our own ways. It is of mercy that we still live and have opportunities of glorifying God actively or passively. Surely these thoughts should crowd on our minds whenever we speak with God. Surely we should never open our lips in prayer without blessing God for that free grace by which we live, and for that loving kindness which endureth for ever. — J.C. Ryle

Spiritual Blessing Quotes By Chinmayananda Saraswati

In all adversities there is always in its depth, a treasure of spiritual blessings secretly hidden. — Chinmayananda Saraswati

Spiritual Blessing Quotes By Doreen Virtue

Every relationship has a spiritual purpose that helps us grow and become stronger. Sometimes, our most challenging relationships bring the greatest personal blessings. From them we learn about forgiveness, patience, and other virtues. — Doreen Virtue

Spiritual Blessing Quotes By Betsy Otter Thompson

We wait for God to bless us while God waits for us to accept the blessing. — Betsy Otter Thompson

Spiritual Blessing Quotes By David Wilcock

Everyone deserves love and appreciation. If there is someone in the world whom we do not love, it is our blessing to work this out within ourselves. A very key spiritual principle, echoed in the Cayce readings as well as mainstream psychology, is that whatever we see in others that makes us angry, sad or jealous is a reflection of an issue we have in ourselves. If we can learn to love, respect and forgive ourselves, then we will not be angered and offended by what we see in others. — David Wilcock

Spiritual Blessing Quotes By Matshona Dhliwayo

The Blessing #2:

May love lead your eyes to look out for others,
may love lead your ears to listen to others,
may love lead your tongue to encourage others,
may love lead your hands to help others,
may love lead your mind to think of others,
may love lead your heart to feel for others,
and may love lead your soul to pray for others. — Matshona Dhliwayo

Spiritual Blessing Quotes By H. P. Blavatsky

People keep repeating that the main things are love and compassion. Certainly love and compassion are the main things, but it takes knowledge to make love and compassion fruitful ... It takes just a second to say 'love'. But to acquire knowledge for the well-being and blessing of humanity requires an eternity. — H. P. Blavatsky

Spiritual Blessing Quotes By Russell Shorto

Relying on physical remedies alone was often seen as downright ungodly: in England, Puritan minister John Sym advised "caution" that people "dote not upon, nor trust, or ascribe too much to physical means; but that we carefully look and pray to God for a blessing by the warrantable use of them." To do otherwise - to rely on a physic or powder alone - would be to put the material above the spiritual. That was why a strictly mechanical approach to medicine was considered dangerously atheistic. — Russell Shorto

Spiritual Blessing Quotes By Alexandra Katehakis

Spiritualizing sex is actually a movement of energy - feeling and emotion - that rises within you and moves into your sexual physicality as an alive, tender, erotic, or passionate expression. Your bodies move without inhibition so all the energy can flow out of you and between the two of you. You allow spiritual energy to express its dance through you. Sexuality can be a profound demonstration of your love, and especially your freedom, to express and bond. Spiritual sex, then, combines how you express your love with the intentions or blessings you bring to your partnership. — Alexandra Katehakis

Spiritual Blessing Quotes By Hudson Taylor

As a rule, prayer is answered and funds come in, but if we are kept waiting, the spiritual blessing that is the outcome is far mar precious than exemption from the trial. — Hudson Taylor

Spiritual Blessing Quotes By Olivia Ames Hoblitzelle

Do whatever you do joyfully, because discipline - the true meaning of the word - is characterized by doing something with joy. Even the little things: see them as an opportunity, a blessing, a meditation, as spiritual practice. Then, even if it's difficult, it will be good. If you use hardships in a proper way, they can even bring peace — Olivia Ames Hoblitzelle

Spiritual Blessing Quotes By Lailah Gifty Akita

You are a child of God.
You are blessed. — Lailah Gifty Akita

Spiritual Blessing Quotes By David O. McKay

The greatest spiritual blessing comes from helping another. — David O. McKay

Spiritual Blessing Quotes By Jonathan Sacks

A primordial instinct going back to humanity's tribal past makes us see difference as a threat. That instinct is massively dysfunctional in an age in which our several destinies are interlinked. Oddly enough, it is the market -- the least overtly spiritual of concepts -- that delivers a profoundly spiritual message: that it is through exchange that difference becomes a blessing, not a curse. When difference leads to war, both sides lose. When it leads to mutual enrichment, both sides gain. — Jonathan Sacks

Spiritual Blessing Quotes By John Tillotson

For the spiritual efficacy of the Sacrament doth not depend upon the nature of the thing received, supposing we received what our Lord appointed, and receive it with a right preparation and disposition of mind, but upon the supernatural blessing that goes along with it, and makes it effectual to those spiritual ends for which it was appointed. — John Tillotson

Spiritual Blessing Quotes By Billy Graham

May you also remember this Thanksgiving not only the obvious gifts that God has given you, but His spiritual blessings, as well. The greatest gift of all is Jesus Christ, and the salvation God offers us in Him. — Billy Graham

Spiritual Blessing Quotes By Vivian Amis

To the one who views from a larger perspective ... everything is a blessing. — Vivian Amis

Spiritual Blessing Quotes By Jane Seymour

I have many friends who do not believe in luck; they believe in blessings. Likewise, I do not believe in coincidences; I believe in miracles. — Jane Seymour

Spiritual Blessing Quotes By Watchman Nee

Eternal life means more than mere future blessing to be enjoyed by believers; it is equally a kind of spiritual ability. — Watchman Nee

Spiritual Blessing Quotes By Mark Nepo

Most sacraments are acts of breathtaking simplicity: a simple prayer, a sip of wine and a piece of bread, a single breath in meditation, a sprinkling of water on the forehead, an exchange of rings, a kind word, a blessing. Any of these, performed in a moment of mindfulness, may open the doors of our spiritual perception and bring nourishment and delight. — Mark Nepo

Spiritual Blessing Quotes By Mooji

Don't be too quick to interpret the moment. Just keep quiet. My encouragement would always be: never think anything is against you, everything is blessing. Why should it be different? Just be quiet. Let it all work itself out. — Mooji

Spiritual Blessing Quotes By Lailah Gifty Akita

I thank the Lord daily for His glorious blessings. — Lailah Gifty Akita

Spiritual Blessing Quotes By Todd Bentley

Some places, because of their spiritual history, are noted to be locations where people will often experience an open heaven. In fact, there are places where the heavens are open more than in other places. Most of you are familiar with previous moves of God in places such as Toronto (The Toronto Blessing), the meetings in Pensacola, and Argentina, just to name a few. Just like in Jacob's day, today, there are certain places where heaven is open, geographical locations where you are more likely to have an encounter with God. — Todd Bentley

Spiritual Blessing Quotes By George Washington

May the same wonderworking Deity, who long since delivered the Hebrews from their Egyptian oppressors and planted them in the promised land, whose Providential agency has lately been conspicuous in establishing these United States as an independent nation, still continue to water them with the dews of Heaven and to make the inhabitants of every denomination participate in the temporal and spiritual blessings of that people whose God is Jehovah. — George Washington

Spiritual Blessing Quotes By Marvin J. Ashton

What a spiritual comfort and blessing it is to know that, if we look to our Savior Jesus Christ and endure to the end, eternal life and exaltation can be ours. Our capacity to see and comprehend is increased only in proportion to our willingness to look. God becomes more approachable as we look to him. — Marvin J. Ashton

Spiritual Blessing Quotes By L. Lionel Kendrick

There is a difference in just attending the temple and having a rich spiritual experience. The real blessings of the temple come as we enhance our temple experience. To do so, we must feel a spirit of reverence for the temple and a spirit of worship. — L. Lionel Kendrick

Spiritual Blessing Quotes By Russell M. Nelson

Some of the sweetest spirits are housed in frail frames. Great spiritual strength is often developed by those with physical challenges precisely because they are challenged. Such individuals are entitled to all the blessings that God has in store for His faithful and obedient children. — Russell M. Nelson

Spiritual Blessing Quotes By Bobby F. Kimbrough Jr.

Sometimes we miss our blessings in life because they do not arrive the way we think they should. Because our minds are so shallow, so limited, we think our blessings have to come a certain way and sometimes we miss them walking up and down the street. Open your mind: get your blessing. — Bobby F. Kimbrough Jr.

Spiritual Blessing Quotes By Lailah Gifty Akita

Lord I thank you blessing me with food, clothing and shelter. — Lailah Gifty Akita

Spiritual Blessing Quotes By Sunday Adelaja

Your spiritual and physical growth depends mainly on your time management and personal relationship with God — Sunday Adelaja

Spiritual Blessing Quotes By Lailah Gifty Akita

Sacred blessings; the gift of life and good health. — Lailah Gifty Akita

Spiritual Blessing Quotes By Hans B. Ringger

Rise above selfishness. This includes spiritual selfishness, when one looks toward personal edification and strengthening and has no other interest than one's own salvation. To be blessed is not an end in itself; we must be a blessing to others. All people have a talent in one way or another to touch and inspire other people's lives. Let us not only look inward and proudly say 'all is well in Zion; yea, Zion prospereth' (2 Ne. 28:21), but let us be a light unto a chaotic world. — Hans B. Ringger

Spiritual Blessing Quotes By Kristiane Backer

But I comforted myself with the thought that the reward for every discomfort I suffered for God was a spiritual blessing. — Kristiane Backer

Spiritual Blessing Quotes By Jonathan Edwards

Spiritual delight in God arises chiefly from his beauty and perfection, not from the blessings he gives us. — Jonathan Edwards

Spiritual Blessing Quotes By Carl B. Pratt

I have come to understand that the Lord's richest blessings are spiritual, and they often have to do with family, friends, and the gospel. He often seems to give the blessing of a special sensitivity to the influence and guidance of the Holy Spirit, especially in marriage and family matters like raising children. Such spiritual sensitivity can help us enjoy the blessings of harmony and peace in the home. — Carl B. Pratt

Spiritual Blessing Quotes By Lailah Gifty Akita

What a joyful journey, to travel with the Lord. — Lailah Gifty Akita

Spiritual Blessing Quotes By Ricky Martin

Everything they do, from smiling to crying, feels like a blessing. Being a father feels amazing. This has been the most spiritual moment in my life. — Ricky Martin

Spiritual Blessing Quotes By Omraam Mikhael Aivanhov

Gratitude is what opens the spiritual doors to all the blessings. Everything becomes clear, you see, you feel, you live. — Omraam Mikhael Aivanhov

Spiritual Blessing Quotes By Walt Disney Company

As I see it, a person's culture represents his appraisal of the things that make up his life. And a fellow becomes cultured, I believe, by selecting that which is fine and beautiful in life and throwing aside that which is mediocre or phony. Sort of a series of free, very personal choices, you might say. If this is true, then I think it follows that 'freedom' is the most precious word to culture. Freedom to believe what you choose and read, think and say and be with what you choose. In America, we are guaranteed these freedoms. It is the constitutional privilege of every American to become cultured or to grow up like Donald Duck. I believe that this spiritual and intellectual freedom, which we Americans enjoy, is our greatest cultural blessing. Therefore, it seems to me, that the first duty of culture is to defend freedom and resist all tyranny. — Walt Disney Company

Spiritual Blessing Quotes By Chieko N. Okazaki

The commandment to work is imposed on us by our descent from Adam and Eve, but it is a blessing to us. Illness and adversity are not punishments for being alive; they are natural accompaniments of life. Our bodies are not vile and loathsome snares for our spirits, but the temples of our spirits. The daily activities of mixing orange juice, making telephone calls, supervising homework, and scrubbing the bathtub are not distractions from our spiritual lives. They are the vehicles through which we live our spiritual lives. — Chieko N. Okazaki

Spiritual Blessing Quotes By Billy Graham

Family prayer is a fourth vital link in the chain of spiritual strength - a strength we are trying to build to protect us from a world gone mad. Practicing prayer as a family, not just a flippant blessing before a meal, can give us the security we need. — Billy Graham

Spiritual Blessing Quotes By Thom Hartmann

Blessings are the spiritual equivalent of breathing in, and prayer is the spiritual equivalent of breathing out. — Thom Hartmann

Spiritual Blessing Quotes By Sam Harris

The all-or-nothing quality of Poonja-ji's teaching obliged him to acknowledge the full enlightenment of any person who was grandiose or manic enough to claim it. Thus, I repeatedly witnessed fellow students declare their complete and undying freedom, all the while appearing quite ordinary - or worse. In certain cases, these people had clearly had some sort of breakthrough, but Poonja-ji's insistence upon the finality of every legitimate insight led many of them to delude themselves about their spiritual attainments. Some left India and became gurus. From what I could tell, Poonja-ji gave everyone his blessing to spread his teachings in this way. — Sam Harris

Spiritual Blessing Quotes By Paulo Coelho

Warriors of light always have a certain gleam in their eyes.
They are of this world, they are part of the lives of others, and they set out on their journey with no saddlebags and no sandals. They are often cowardly. They do not always make the right decisions.
They suffer over the most trivial things, they have mean thoughts, and sometimes believe that they are incapable of growing. They frequently deem themselves unworthy of any blessing or miracle.
They are not always quite sure what they are doing here. They spend many sleepless nights, believing that their lives have no meaning.
That is why they are warriors of light. Because they make mistakes. Because they ask themselves questions. Because they are looking for a reason - and are sure to find it. — Paulo Coelho

Spiritual Blessing Quotes By Peace Pilgrim

Concealed in every new situation we face is a spiritual lesson to be learned and a spiritual blessing for us if we learn that lesson. It is good to be tested. We grow and learn through passing tests. I look upon all my tests as good experiences. Before I was tested, I believed I would act in a loving or non-fearing way. After I was tested, I knew! Every test turned out to be an uplifting experience. And it is not important that the outcome be according to our wishes. — Peace Pilgrim

Spiritual Blessing Quotes By Caroline Myss

What an inspiring book. Thank heaven Lee Thornton decided to share her remarkable life story with us. Lee's book is a blessing as well as a terrific read. — Caroline Myss

Spiritual Blessing Quotes By Ann Frederick

Every trauma provides an opportunity for authentic transformation. Trauma amplifies and evokes the expansion and contraction of psyche, body, and soul. It is how we respond to a traumatic event that determines whether trauma will be a cruel and punishing Medusa turning us into stone, or whether it will be a spiritual teacher taking us along vast and uncharted pathways. In the Greek myth, blood from Medusa's slain body was taken in two vials; one vial had the power to kill, while the other had the power to resurrect. If we let it, trauma has the power to rob our lives of vitality and destroy it. However, we can also use it for powerful self-renewal and transformation. Trauma, resolved, is a blessing from a greater power. — Ann Frederick

Spiritual Blessing Quotes By Elizabeth George

What a blessing to be able to leave the cares of life for a brief period and spend time in the outstretched arms of your Shepherd, rubbing, as it were, your cheek against His face in intimate fellowship through prayer. — Elizabeth George

Spiritual Blessing Quotes By Lailah Gifty Akita

Your blessings far outnumber your troubles. — Lailah Gifty Akita

Spiritual Blessing Quotes By William Bridge

As it is the sister of reading, so it is the mother of prayer. Though a man's heart be much indisposed to prayer, yet, if he can but fall into a meditation of God, and the things of God, his heart will soon come off to prayer ... Begin with reading or hearing. Go on with meditation; end in prayer ... Reading without meditation is unfruitful; meditation without reading is hurtful; to meditate and to read without prayer upon both, is without blessing. — William Bridge

Spiritual Blessing Quotes By Russell D. Moore

If the people in our congregation become other-directed instead of self-directed in the adoption of unwanted children, they are going to be other-directed instead of self-directed in their verbal witness to people in their community. On the other hand, the same self-interest that sears over the joy of birth will sear over the joy of the new birth. The numbness to earthly adoption is easily translated to numbness to spiritual adoption. But if people in our churches learn not to grumble at the blessing of minivans filled with children - some of whom don't look anything alike - they're going to learn not to grumble at the blessing of a congregation filling with new people, some of whom don't look anything alike. If our churches learn to rejoice in newness of life in the church nursery, they'll more easily rejoice at newness of life in the church baptistery, and vice versa. — Russell D. Moore

Spiritual Blessing Quotes By Anne Graham

For years we've been telling God to get out of our schools, to get out of our government and to get out of our lives. And being the gentleman He is, I believe He has calmly backed out. How can we expect God to give us His blessing and His protection if we demand He leave us alone? — Anne Graham

Spiritual Blessing Quotes By Beth Moore

Blessed be the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, who has blessed us with every spiritual blessing in the heavens, in Christ. Ephesians 1:3 — Beth Moore

Spiritual Blessing Quotes By Marianne Williamson

We need to take responsibility for the effect of our environment on our nervous systems, and particularly the nervous systems of our children. No wonder so many of them are diagnosed with all the stuff they're diagnosed with today. Modern technology is a blessing to be sure, but it's also a curse if we allow it to pull us out of our spiritual center. A 24 hour electronic onslaught comes at the expense of our deep humanity and our deepest relationships. — Marianne Williamson

Spiritual Blessing Quotes By Hamza Yusuf

This is the difference between someone whose heart is purified and sound and one whose heart is impure and corrupt. Impure people oppress, and the pure-hearted not only forgive their oppressors, but elevate them in status and character. In order to purify ourselves, we must begin to recognize this truth. This is what this book is all about - a book of self-purification and a manual of liberation. If we work on our hearts, if we actually implement what is suggested here, we'll begin to see changes in our lives, our condition, our society, and even within our own family dynamics. It is a blessing that we have this science of purification, a blessing that this teaching exists in the world today. What remains is for us to take these teachings seriously.
Signs, Symptoms and Cures of the Spiritual Diseases of the Heart. Translation and Commentary of Imam Mawlud's Matharat al-Qulub. Schaykh Hamza Yusuf. E-Book S. 10 — Hamza Yusuf

Spiritual Blessing Quotes By A. Theodore Tuttle

President J. Reuben Clark, Jr., a modern prophet, said over and over again that the Lord would never let one of his Saints who had been faithful in the payment of tithes and offerings go without the necessities of life" (Marion G. Romney, "The Blessings of an Honest Tithe," New Era, Jan.-Feb. 1982, 45). Members who faithfully pay tithing are promised spiritual blessings as well. "I think it is not well known in the Church that payment of tithing has very little to do with money. Tithing has to do with faith — A. Theodore Tuttle

Spiritual Blessing Quotes By Elyse M. Fitzpatrick

We're women and men who are so sinful and flawed that we deserve hell, but we've been so loved and welcomed that every spiritual blessing, adoption, tender fellowship with our Father and each other, forgiveness, reconciliation, and eternal life is ours. Christ's accomplishments and perfections are ours now. Everything about us is different. — Elyse M. Fitzpatrick

Spiritual Blessing Quotes By Lailah Gifty Akita

Joy is sacred blessing. — Lailah Gifty Akita

Spiritual Blessing Quotes By Lailah Gifty Akita

The greatest blessing is the gift of life. — Lailah Gifty Akita

Spiritual Blessing Quotes By Martin Luther

The heavenly blessing is to be delivered from the law, sin and death; to be justified and quickened to life: to have peace with God; to have a faithful heart, a joyful conscience, a spiritual consolation; to have the knowledge of Jesus Christ; to have the gift of prophecy, and the revelation of the Scriptures; to have the gift of the Holy Ghost, and to rejoice in God. — Martin Luther

Spiritual Blessing Quotes By Pope Shenouda III Of Alexandria

Yes, fasting is not merely a commandment from God but a godly gift, a grace and a blessing. God the creator of our body and soul knows of our need to fast for its benefit for our spiritual life, development and our eternity. He granted us the knowledge and manner of fasting. As a kind Father and a wise Teacher, He has recommended fasting for us. — Pope Shenouda III Of Alexandria

Spiritual Blessing Quotes By Glenn Hughes

I thank God for his many blessings he has given me, but money and prestige are not what it's about. I seek spiritual progression. — Glenn Hughes

Spiritual Blessing Quotes By Eric Davis

Blessings can come in a number of ways. The Lord doesn't give you what you want, the Lord gives you what you need. — Eric Davis

Spiritual Blessing Quotes By Gary R. Ryan

We create our own reality. The blessing (or problem) with this is that when one creates one's own reality, one must live it! Are you living a blessing or is it a curse? — Gary R. Ryan

Spiritual Blessing Quotes By Marion G. Romney

The principle of self-reliance grows out of a fundamental doctrine of the Church, that of agency. Just as each individual is accountable for his choices and actions in spiritual matters, so also is he accountable in temporal matters. It is through our own efforts and decisions that we earn our way in this life. While the Lord will magnify us in both subtle and dramatic ways, he can only guide our footsteps when we move our feet. Ultimately, our own actions determine our blessings or lack of them. It is a direct consequence of both agency and accountability. — Marion G. Romney

Spiritual Blessing Quotes By Anthony Kiedis

She wasn't about to go down that road herself, which was a testament to her spiritual awakening and her commitment to sanity. It was a real blessing that she didn't follow me, because oftentimes, people go out together and one comes back and the other doesn't. Or both of them never do. — Anthony Kiedis

Spiritual Blessing Quotes By Lailah Gifty Akita

Good health is a holy blessing. — Lailah Gifty Akita

Spiritual Blessing Quotes By Al-Ghazali

Neglect not your time, nor use it haphazardly; on the contrary you should bring yourself to account. Structure your litanies and other practices during each day and night. This is how to bring about the spiritual blessing (baraka) in each period. If each of your breaths is a priceless jewel, Be not like the deceived fools who are joyous because each day their wealth increases while their life grows ever shorter. — Al-Ghazali

Spiritual Blessing Quotes By Peace Pilgrim

I remember my first lesson on the pilgrimage was the lesson of receiving. I had been on the giving side for many years and I needed to learn to accept as gracefully as I had been able to give, in order to give the other fellow the joy and blessing of giving. It's so beautiful when you live to give. To me it's the only way to live because as you give you receive spiritual blessings. — Peace Pilgrim

Spiritual Blessing Quotes By David A. Bednar

Sporadic and shallow dipping in the doctrine of Christ and partial participation in His restored Church cannot produce the spiritual transformation that enables us to walk in a newness of life.
