Wesley Duewel writes: The Spirit so sanctifies you to the will of God, so yearns within you for the will of God, so illumines for you the will of God, and so believes through you for the will of God that He sanctifies your intercession until the intercession of God the Son, God the Spirit, and your heart-cry are as one. In this holy and irresistible unity of intercession, heaven and earth can be moved as necessary." (Duewel in Mighty Prevailing Prayer, p. 116).
"How can Christians be tearless in a broken world and think that they are representing Jesus?" (Duewel, p. 120).
Dennis Kinlaw writes: "When the minister becomes the pivot around which his ministry revolves, the results are deadly. The Lord will not be fully present in any ministry where the minister gets the glory. The Holy Spirit comes to exalt Christ, not to exalt you and me. Anything that draws attention to our cleverness, our brightness, or our competence is ultimately sterilizing. This is why we must eve remember that we are called to work with Him." (in Preaching in the Spirit, p. 45).
