“I firmly believe God continues to answer the prayers of His people even after He has taken them to heaven. Never forget that God isn’t bound by time the way we are. We see only the present moment; God sees everything. We see only part of what He is doing; He sees it all.”

“He who is called to and set apart for the work of an evangelist is to devote his time and effort single-mindedly to this God-given task.

Only the clear leading of God will cause him to change his ministry.”
