Myles Munroe Quotations | Page 3

God never demands anything that He does not provide for. Whatever God commands us to do, He equips us to do.

If you have hope for the future you have true riches; no matter how much you have in your account

Hard work and diligence are essential to success, but they require an internal motivation. That internal motivation is Vision

Great leaders have no need for reputation. Reputation is what you are in public. Character is who you are in private.

Leadership does not mean being bossy, always telling others what to do. No, leadership means going ahead, not putting others in the front. Good leaders lead by example, not by decree.

It is the same way with dating. The time you are most prepared for dating is when you don't need anyone to complete you, fulfill you, or instill in you a sense of worth or purpose.

Divine Law is not subject nor affected by the majority vote of humanity

True success is what you have done compared to what you could have done.

Every human has a seed of greatness buried in a gift needed by the world.

Your Destiny is chosen by God, Your future is certain, whether you arrive there is up to you

Don't be pushed by your problems, be led by your dreams. Govern your life by priorities not your pressures.

Solid character will reflect itself in consistent behavior, while poor character will seek to hide behind deceptive words and actions.

When you discover your gift and authority, that gift attracts people. When people come to you, they are not really coming to you for you but for the gift and the vision that you are serving the humanity of your generation with.

Marriage is two imperfect people committing themselves to a perfect institution, by making perfect vows from imperfect lips before a perfect God.

...success is not a comparison of what we have done with what others have done.

When purpose is not known, abuse is inevitable

One of the greatest enemies to vision is sight!

God did not create woman from man’s head, that he should command her, nor from his feet, that she should be his slave, but rather from his side, that she should be near his heart.

Your value in life is determined by the problems you solve through your gift.

You are not important because of how long you live, you are important because of how effective you live.

You must decide if you are going to rob the world or bless it with the rich, valuable, potent, untapped resources locked away within you.

Marital faithfulness involves more than just sexual fidelity. Being faithful to your wife also means defending her and affirming her beauty, intelligence, and integrity at all times, particularly before other people. Faithfulness to your husband means sticking up for him, always building him up and never tearing him down. Marital fidelity means that your spouse’s health, happiness, security, and welfare take a higher place in your life than anything else except your own relationship with the Lord.

You are capable of much more than you are presently thinking, imagining, doing or being.

People generally fall into one of three groups: the few who make things happen, the many who watch things happen, and the overwhelming majority who have no notion of what happens. Every person is either a creator of fact or a creature of circumstance. He either puts color into his environment, or, like a chameleon, takes color from his environment.

You are designed by God not to blend in, but to stand out

Attitude creates your world and designs your destiny.

Keep your head and your heart going in the right direction, and you will not have to worry about your feet.

Vision is the Source and hope of life. The greatest gift ever given to mankind is not the gift of sight, but the gift of vision. Sight is a function of the eyes; vision is a function of the heart. ‘Eyes that look are common, but eyes that see are rare.’ Nothing noble or noteworthy on earth was ever done without vision.

Failure is not the absence of success. Failure is the neglect of trying.

The greatest failure in life is being successful in the wrong assignment.

Your work is not your job. Your job is what they pay you to do; your work is what you were born to do.

True leaders are born when you find something to die for

The greatest tragedy in life is not death, but a life without a purpose.

The poorest man in the world is the man without a dream.The most frustrated man in the world is the man with a dream that never becomes reality.

God’s love sets us free from the need to seek approval. Knowing that we are loved by God, accepted by God, approved by God, and that we are new creations in Christ empowers us to reject self-rejection and embrace a healthy self-love. Being secure in God’s love for us, our love for Him, and our love for ourselves, prepares us to fulfill the second greatest commandment: To love our neighbor as ourselves.

The wealthiest places in the world are not gold mines, oil fields, diamond mines or banks. The wealthiest place is the cemetery. There lies companies that were never started, masterpieces that were never painted… In the cemetery there is buried the greatest treasure of untapped potential. There is a treasure within you that must come out. Don’t go to the grave with your treasure still within YOU.

God wants to supply your needs from a place you never expected, through people you never knew, in ways you never thought, but first you have to believe that it is possible. Once you understand that His ability to meet your needs is bigger than your job or your business, you will find that your source of life is bigger than the resources that you have been accumulating.

The first basic need of a male is sexual fulfillment; for a female, affection. The second most basic need of a male is recreational companionship; for a female, communication and conversation. The third basic need of a male in a relationship is an attractive woman; for a woman, honesty and openness. The fourth basic need of a male is domestic support; for a female, financial support. The fifth basic need of a male is admiration and respect; for a woman, family commitment.

The greatest discovery in life is self-discovery. Until you find yourself you will always be someone else. Become yourself.

For a woman, language spoken is an expression of what she is feeling. For a man, language spoken is an expression of what he is thinking. A woman says what is on her heart while a man says what is on his mind.
