Myles Munroe

Trust is a product of test over time.

You weren't born just to live a life and to die; you were born to accomplish something specifically. Matter of fact, success is making it to the end of your purpose; that is success... Success is not just existing. Success is making it to the end of why you were born.

We live in a disposable, 'cast-off and throw-away' society that has largely lost any real sense of permanence. Ours is a world of expiration dates, limited shelf life, and planned obsolescence. Nothing is absolute.

When man fell from grace, he lost a kingdom, not a religion. He lost dominion over the earth; He did not lose Heaven. Therefore, mankind's search is not for a religion or for Heaven but for his kingdom.

It is my conviction that marriage is such a good idea, only God could have thought of it.

Our life is the sum total of all the decisions we make every day, and those decisions are determined by our priorities.

The value of life is not in its duration, but in its donation. You are not important because of how long you live, you are important because of how effective you live.

Don't die old, die empty. That's the goal of life. Go to the cemetery and disappoint the graveyard.

Character in leadership is the most important balance for leadership. Without character, leaders have no safety. Leadership has no protection without character.

The people who have impacted the world didn't live long. Martin Luther King. John F. Kennedy. These people who impact the world were not old people, but they lived so effectively that we cannot erase them from history.

So what do you desire to do? What do you really want to do as a person? You need to stop and document that; write it down; make a plan; and then God says, 'I'll direct your steps.'

I think that the greatest gift God ever gave man is not the gift of sight but the gift of vision. Sight is a function of the eyes, but vision is a function of the heart.

Young people all over the world are very frustrated. They are very disillusioned. Many of them are turning their backs on religion. They are walking away from the faith of their parents, and most of this is because religion has failed them.

When you believe in your dream and your vision, then it begins to attract its own resources. No one was born to be a failure.

True leaders don't invest in buildings. Jesus never built a building. They invest in people. Why? Because success without a successor is failure. So your legacy should not be in buildings, programs, or projects; your legacy must be in people.

Death can never kill an idea. Ideas are more powerful than death. Ideas outlive men and can never be destroyed.

Every human heart cries and yearns for the same thing: a chance to fulfill his or her own dreams and desires. Even the poorest man has a dream.

The Kingdom is the love of God prevailing in politics, in business, in government, in media. It is all the impact of the laws of God creating a social environment where the strong help the weak, where those who have give to those who don't. It's a society where relationships are built on love.

Whenever I talk about the Bahamas and its beauty, I could never stop talking about my God, who has given us all of this beauty.
