Our walk counts far more than our talk, always!
– George Mueller
Examples
If the Lord fails me at this time, it will be the first time.
– George Mueller
Faith
Nine-tenths of the difficulties are overcome when our hearts are ready to do the Lord’s will, whatever it may be. When one is truly in this state, it is usually but a little way to the knowledge of what His will is.
– George Mueller
Obedience | The Heart | Overcoming
There was a day when I died; died to self, my opinions, preferences, tastes and will; died to the world, its approval or censure; died to the approval or blame even of my brethren or friends; and since then I have studied only to show myself approved unto God.
– George Mueller
Repentance
Faith has nothing to do with feelings or with impressions, with improbabilities or with outward experiences. If we desire to couple such things with faith, then we are no longer resting on the Word of God, because faith needs nothing of the kind. Faith rests on the naked Word of God. When we take Him at His Word, the heart is at peace.
– George Mueller
FaithFeelings
Oh, how very kind and good my heavenly Father has been to me! I have no aches or pains, no rheumatism, and now in my ninety-third year I can do a day’s work at the orphan houses with as much ease and comfort to myself as ever.

Grace | Gratitude | Comfort
It ill becomes the servant to seek to be rich, and great, and honored in that world where his Lord was poor, and mean, and despised.
– George Mueller
Finances | Greed
To learn strong faith is to endure great trials. I have learned my faith by standing firm amid severe testings.
– George Mueller
Faith | Trials | Endurance
It is a common temptation of Satan to make us give up the reading of the Word and prayer when our enjoyment is gone; as if it were of no use to read the Scriptures when we do not enjoy them, and as if it were no use to pray when we have no spirit of prayer.
– George Mueller
Prayer | Scripture
The less we read the Word of God, the less we desire to read it, and the less we pray, the less we desire to pray.
– George Mueller
Prayer | Scripture
Faith does not operate in the realm of the possible. There is no glory for God in that which is humanly possible. Faith begins where man’s power ends.
– George Mueller
Faith
God delights to increase the faith of His children. We ought, instead of wanting no trials before victory, no exercise for patience, to be willing to take them from God’s hands as a means. Trials, obstacles, difficulties and sometimes defeats, are the very food of faith.
– George Mueller
Faith | Trials
The beginning of anxiety is the end of faith, and the beginning of true faith is the end of anxiety.
– George Mueller
Anxiety | Faith
If honest of heart and uprightness before God were lacking or if I did not patiently wait on God for instruction, or if I preferred the counsel of my fellow-men to the declarations of the Word of God, I made great mistakes.
– George Mueller
Prayer | The Heart
The Lord Jesus, everything. In himself worse than nothing. By grace, in Christ, the son of the King.
– George Mueller
Christ
I live in the spirit of prayer. I pray as I walk about, when I lie down and when I rise up. And the answers are always coming. Thousands and tens of thousands of times have my prayers been answered. When once I am persuaded that a thing is right and for the glory of God, I go on praying for it until the answer comes. George Mueller never gives up!
– George Mueller
Prayer | Perseverance
God judges what we give by what we keep.
– George Mueller
Giving
I seek the will of the Spirit of God through or in connection with the Word of God. The Spirit and the Word must be combined. If I look to the Spirit alone without the Word, I lay myself open to great delusions also.
– George Mueller
The Holy Spirit | Scripture
Faith is the assurance that the thing which God has said in His word is true, and that God will act according to what He has said in his word… Faith is not a matter of impressions, nor of probabilities, nor of appearances.
– George Mueller
Faith
I have joyfully dedicated my whole life to the object of exemplifying how much may be accomplished by prayer and faith.
– George Mueller
Prayer | Faith
The vigor of our spiritual life will be in exact proportion to the place held by the Bible in our life and thoughts.
– George Mueller
The Bible
If we desire our faith to be strengthened, we should not shrink from opportunities where our faith may be tried, and therefore, through trial, be strengthened.
– George Mueller
Faith | Strength | Trials
Now what is food for the inner man? Not prayer, but the Word of God; and here again, not the simple reading of the Word of God, so that it only passes through our minds, just as water passes through a pipe, but considering what we read, pondering it over and applying it to our hearts.
– George Mueller
Scripture
A servant of God has but one Master. It ill becomes the servant to seek to be rich, and great, and honored in that world where his Lord was poor, and mean, and despised.
– George Mueller
Service | Hatred
It is not enough to begin to pray, nor to pray aright; nor is it enough to continue for a time to pray; but we must pray patiently, believing, continue in prayer until we obtain an answer.
– George Mueller
Prayer
Be assured, if you walk with Him and look to Him, and expect help from Him, He will never fail you.
– George Mueller
Faith
Christians do not practically remember that while we are saved by grace, altogether by grace, so that in the matter of salvation works are altogether excluded; yet that so far as the rewards of grace are concerned, in the world to come, there is an intimate connection between the life of the Christian here and the enjoyment and the glory in the day of Christ’s appearing.
– George Mueller
Grace
I hope in God, I pray on, and look yet for the answer. They are not converted yet, but they will be.
