Book Quotes

“My mother would take the Band-Aid off, clean the wound, and say, “Things that are covered don’t heal well.” Mother was right. Things that are covered do not heal well.”

― T.D. Jakes

“When you begin to realize that your past does not necessarily dictate the outcome of your future, then you can release the hurt. It is impossible to inhale new air until you exhale the old.”

― T.D. Jakes

“The brilliance of morning is in sharp contrast with the darkness of night" - Woman thou art loosed”

― T.D. Jakes

“If someone must be hurt, if it ever becomes necessary to bear pains, weather strong winds, or withstand trials or opposition, let it be adults and not children.”

― T.D. Jakes

“It is important to remember that for every person, there will be a problem. Even more importantly, for every problem, our God has a prescription!”

― T.D. Jakes

“One of the great healing balms of the Holy Spirit is forgiveness. To forgive is to break the link between you and your past.”

― T.D. Jakes

“Sometimes we esteem others more important than ourselves. We always become the martyr. It is wonderful to be self-sacrificing, but watch out for self-disdain! If we don’t apply some of the medicine that we use on others to strengthen ourselves, our patients will be healed and we will be dying.”

― T.D. Jakes

“Do not conform any longer to the pattern of this world, but be transformed by the renewing of your mind. Then you will be able to test and approve what God‘s will is—His good, pleasing and perfect will (Romans 12:2 NIV).”

― T.D. Jakes

“The Scriptures plainly show that this infirmed woman had tried to lift herself. People who stand on the outside can easily criticize and assume that the infirmed woman lacked effort and fortitude. That is not always the case. Some situations in which we can find ourselves defy willpower. We feel unable to change. The Scriptures say that she “could in no way raise herself up.” That implies that she had employed various means of self-help. Isn’t it amazing how the same people who lift up countless others often cannot lift themselves? This type of person may be a tower of faith and prayer for others, but impotent when it comes to his or her own limitations. That person may be the one whom others rely upon.”

― T.D. Jakes

“Love embraces the totality of the other person. It is impossible to completely and effectively love someone without being included in that other person’s history. Our history has made us who we are. The images, scars, and victories that we live with have shaped us into the people we have become. We will never know who a person is until we understand where they have been. The secret of being transformed from a vulnerable victim to a victorious, loving person is found in the ability to open your past to someone responsible enough to share your weaknesses and pains. “Bear one another’s burdens, and so fulfill the law of Christ” (Gal. 6:2). You don’t have to keep reliving it. You can release it.”

― T.D. Jakes

“When you’re in trouble, God will reach into the mess and pull you out.”

― T.D. Jakes

“A church that focuses on the external has lost its passion for souls.”

― T.D. Jakes

“first things that a hurting person needs to do is break the habit of using other people as a narcotic to numb the dull aching of an inner void.”

― T.D. Jakes

“Divorce is not merely separating; it is the tearing apart of what was once joined together.”

― T.D. Jakes

“Things that are covered don’t heal well.”

― T.D. Jakes
