Jeremiah Burroughs on Prosperity

Posted by Bluegrass Endurance | Labels: , | Posted On Monday, July 8, 2019 at 5:30 AM

"A place is said to be sanctified when it is separated from other things for God; so also the blessing of God is upon all my possessions, upon all that I own, when it all works for God's glory and my ultimate good.  That is when it becomes sanctified to me."

"Therefore a godly man, who has learned by the grace of God how to be full, accounts himself to be made rich by sharing whatever fullness God has given him, for the glory of His name and for the good of others."

"A godly heart discovers that the more often anything comes from God's hand, the better and sweeter it is.  Therefore, he is willing to regularly give up what he has into God's hand."

"Many men and women think they have need of God in their affliction: during such times they depend greatly upon God.  Yes, but you should depend upon God just as much if you owned the whole world as you would if you were the poorest beggar in the world."

William Gurnall on Prayer and Prosperity

Posted by Bluegrass Endurance | Labels: , , | Posted On Tuesday, February 24, 2015 at 5:30 AM


"Pray in prosperity — that you may not be ensnared by it. Prosperity is no friend to the memory, therefore we are cautioned so much to beware when we are full, lest we forget God. You shall find, in Scripture, that the saints have had their saddest falls — on the most even ground.” 
William Gurnall
