“Never forget who you are in Christ. If you have thoughts or feelings that make you feel bad about yourself, remember they come from the enemy. Do not believe Satan's lies. You are not who he says you are.”

“If I’m talking to prostitutes or a drunk on the streets, I ask the Father, “What’s Your heart for this person?” I often tell people going out to minister, “Dig for the gold, not the dirt.” Don’t try to give words revealing sin or failures. The dirt might impress people with my gift of the prophetic, but it doesn’t impact an individual’s life for the best—it just makes them feel exposed. Nobody who has a gold mine says, “Look at all the dirt I’ve found!” What I pull out of my pocket is all the gold nuggets I’ve found. Always protect people’s dignity.”

“Nothing is stronger in disarming the kingdom of darkness than love. Love is the thing Satan can’t stand. Love is the weapon of mass destruction. Satan is the one who heaps shame on us—he’s the accuser, and in our approach to people, we should never agree with what the accuser says about them. Satan is the one whispering in people’s ears, “God is repulsed by you.” God is saying, “I love you—I’m crazy about you! Come home to Me.”

“As Christians we believe in the miracles of Jesus, but do we actually believe God will be in us in the same way? Jesus said, “I tell you the truth, anyone who believes in me will do the same works I have done, and even greater works, because I am going to be with the Father” (John 14:12 NLT). Sometimes we act as though Christ has set an unattainable bar that we must meekly edge toward from a million miles away. “But He’s Jesus,” we offer lamely.”

“We serve the one true God, and stepping out to do Kingdom things is like having a front row seat. It’s not that we have to be amazing; it’s that He is amazing. That’s the power of our testimony—that God would use broken, hurt, wounded, messed-up people like us. That’s part of the Gospel message.”
― Robby Dawkins, Do What Jesus Did: A Real-Life Field Guide to Healing the Sick, Routing Demons and Changing Lives Forever

“My belief is that one of the primary battles Satan wages is his attempt to keep us from a full revelation of that. Called the Accuser, he works to keep us in poverty when it comes to knowing God’s love and walking in the authority God has given us. Satan wants us to keep our prayers in survival mode, focused on begging God for small withdrawals to cover our basic sustenance. He doesn’t want us to realize that we’ve been entrusted with the Kingdom itself.”

“Clay that has not gone through the fire of the kiln is useless. Fire solidifies clay. It makes clay strong and helps it retain its shape. This is how it works with clay, and this is how it works with people, too.”

“...you are not the person Satan says you are. You do not have to listen to that condemning voice in your head or those negative feelings in your emotions. Do not trust them. They are his lies. He would like nothing better than to get you to doubt yourself and the God who created you.

Satan likes to hang identities on us that are not who we really are at all. For instance, he likes to call us

Sinner
Disappointment
Failure
Weakling
Doubter

Most of us have been all of these things at one time or another. But they do not define us. They are not who we are. When we accept Jesus Christ as our Lord and Savior, God instead sees us as

Righteous
Achiever
Overcomer
Strong
Faithful”

“It’s not necessarily the prophecy or signs and wonders that break through to someone, although those things often accompany our prayers and can be used to open a heart to the Gospel. Our real weapon against the enemy, however, is God’s love.”
― Robby Dawkins, Do What Jesus Did: A Real-Life Field Guide to Healing the Sick, Routing Demons and Changing Lives Forever

“God’s gift to us is ability; our gift to God is availability. He says to us, “You go first. You be available and step out, and I will empower you in the moment.” God does His part, and we have a part to play as well. All of us are invited to be part of the unfolding of God’s Kingdom reign. It’s a high calling and not necessarily a simple journey, but a step-by-step process of faith that’s available to everyone, whether you’re a brand-new Christian or the pastor of a megachurch.”
