Quotes about Will

Fate leads the willing and drags along the unwilling.
- Lucius Annaeus Seneca
Absolutely no man, woman, child, or devil can ever get you out of the will of God! No one but God holds your destiny.
- John Bevere
The accurate measurement of our true spiritual condition lies in our actual obedience to His will.
- John Bevere
There is the prophetic ministry of promise born of the will of the Father and there is the prophetic ministry born of flesh and the will of man. Though both are conceived through a genuine desire to fulfil God's plan and promise, the one birthed by flesh must be maintained by flesh while the one birthed by the Spirit will be sustained by the Spirit. Flesh reproduces flesh and therefore speaks directly to the desires of man. Spirit reproduces spirit and therefore speaks forth the desire of God.
- John Bevere

- John Bevere
Let the Most Blessed be my guide, if it be His will, Unto His gate, into His fold, and up to His holy hill. And let Him never allow me to turn aside or veer, From his free grace and holy ways, whatever I suffer. And let Him gather those of mine whom I have left behind; Lord, please make them be thine, with all their heart and mind.
- John Bunyan
I can only say this, that for true worship of God there is a divine faith required, but there can be no divine faith without a divine revelation of the will of God.
- John Bunyan
[The Prayer of Mary] My Faithful Lord and Master, I boldly request that You speak to these dear servants of Yours. Ask big things of them. Make them uncomfortable. Stretch them in ways that they have no idea You can. And give them the will, the heart, and the faith to say a wholehearted yes to You whenever You ask. May their obedience change not only them, but the world. Amen.
- John Maxwell
A dream is an inspiring picture of the future that energizes your mind, will, and emotions, empowering you to do everything you can to achieve it.
- John Maxwell
When the will is enslaved to a desire, it will in turn enslave the mind.
- Dallas Willard
The will to originality is not the will to be peculiar and unlike anybody else; it means the desire to derive one's consciousness from its primary source.
- Nikolai Berdyaev
