Here are more quotes from Bethel that I’ve extracted from my notes over the past week. Some of them encourage me, some challenge me and some make me ponder:
- Seriousness is not a gift of the Holy Spirit, Joy is.
- Focus on what God is doing not what God isn’t doing.
- God is so good at his job that his name is healer.
- I don’t need to pray that God would come, he’s already here, I just need to let him out.
- It’s not about hard or long prayers, it’s about how much we trust God.
- I don’t want to become good at my job, I just want to hang out with someone who is good at his – the Holy Spirit.
- Some people go on about how much they love Jesus but know little of how much Jesus loves them.
- Don’t work for love, work from love.
- Grace is not a theology, grace is a person.
- We need people in the healing rooms who know that they are loved by God who is extravagant, he is a good God in a good mood.
- We’ve created a gospel to match our experience instead of lifting our experience to match the gospel.
- We live with the conviction that its impossible to pray and nothing happen.
- If you don’t think it’s Gods will to heal you why go to the doctor?
- Most of the time it’s obedience that attracts revelation.
- Sometimes when your willing to do what your not qualified to do that’s what qualifies you.
- Something happens to the person who feeds himself on what God is doing.
- 1 Cor 13 – love believes all things – some of us need to become gullible to God again, to simply believe.
- I’d rather die in faith than live in unbelief.
- God wants to reveal his goodness not only to us but through us.
- All of heaven supports those who give themselves to reveal Gods goodness.
- Much of the church knows God as saviour but not as a father who is deeply and profoundly good.
- Discipleship does not happen from the pulpit it happens life on life.
