10 WITTY QUOTES ABOUT GOD

Intro:
Many people love quotes. And they have good reason to do so because quotes are crisp, they are memorable and profound. By God’s grace, I coin quite a few almost daily as I write on diverse issues. I would love to compile and categorise them sometime. I actually started to do that a while back and issued some in the post below.

12 Quotes on God’s Faithfulness

Today, I present ten sayings about God for you to ponder on. (There is so much to be said about and on behalf of God.) I have included the titles of posts they were lifted or modified from where that is the case so you can check them out, perhaps, and see how the thoughts were further developed.

Tell me what you think about the quotes in this collection and watch out for more of such posts from edithohaja.com. You are blessed!

2. God is vast and layered in mystery. It’s impossible to pigeonhole him.

3. You have an infinitesimal fraction of eternity to spend on earth. With God’s help, you can make it count.

4. Worship of God is not a currency for buying yourself good health, easier circumstances and wealth.

5. A proper relationship with God is not a business transaction without emotional commitment.

Bonus:
The mills of God grind slowly, an English proverb says. But they do grind and you have the best flour afterwards.

6. If we want to be a blessing on the earth, we should put God in the saddle of our lives.

    Wow……this is awesome, ma. But the one that captivates me the most is number three.

  • Thought provoking quotes. I am really blessed. Thank you, ma.

  • Rita

    Very very witty,..like it!!!

  • Obasi Kosiso

    Wonderful! I pray I will be an amazing writer like you. So that I will join in disseminating God’s messages. U are really a rare gem.

    • Edith Ohaja

      Awwww! What a nice thing to say. Praise the Lord! And I say a big “Amen” to your prayer in Jesus’ name.

  • Iroegbu Amarachi

    The quotes are awesome but the one which drew my attention is quote number 8. People tend to remember God in times of need and when life becomes better they enjoy everything and forget Him.

    • Edith Ohaja

      May we not be counted among those who do so in Jesus’ name. May you be awesomely blessed, Amarachi!

  • Emmanuel Ujevwe

    These quotes are amazing. They boost our faith in God and help us to hold on tight to Him because with Him, all things are possible.

    • Edith Ohaja

      Thank you very much, Emmanuel! I pray the quotes serve the purpose you mentioned in Jesus’ name. You are soooo blessed!

  • Agugbua Chisom

    This post is really fantastic, ma. The 10 quotes are really awesome and true. It is important for people to read this post because there are so many things people don’t know about God. There are also so many people that misunderstand God. This post is a good and true summary of God.

    • Edith Ohaja

      Glory to God! I doubt that He can be summarised though. We can only talk of those aspects of Him that we have experienced. God bless you richly in Jesus’ name, Chisom!

  • Abutu, Charity Nebechi

    This post is wonderful because it reminds us to stay closer to God while chasing the things of the earth for the world is not our home and our home is only for those who prepare themselves

  • Ewurum John

    I feel very inspired ma. What I really observed about these quotes is that they serve as an engine and a power house in our spiritual lives. It is said that the spiritual controls the physical and therefore our source should be problem free, to guarantee an obstacle-free and moral lifestyle.

  • adumike geraldine nneoma

    I and most Christians out there need these quotes to push us more in believing in what God can do.

  • Ikenna precious olachi

    I love number one most but the quotes are really inspiring. Thanks ma

  • Ezenwa Obinna G.

    Aunty, I must confess my optimum agreement with your number 8 quote which says it is easy to serve God in obscurity and want. But the true test of love is if we still serve him when we’re famous and rich. It is at this point that man fail God because the rich will always have so many issues to attend to by reason of his wealth, position or status and might have little or no time for God. I pray such will not be my lot if God decide to bless me with riches tomorrow. Thanks ma for the wonderful quotes, they are indeed inspirational.

  • Jeremiah Chioma Juilet

    ” God’s principal tense is the past participle” really thought-provoking.
    God is indeed faithful and Gracious

  • Sandra Oweka

    Gods love for us is forever. He is our rock and fortress.

  • thelma Ideozu

    God’s principal tense is the past participle. Made me chuckle. Very clever & funny quotes here.

  • Nwankwo Anita

    Tomorrow holds a promise when its seen through God’s eyes.God factor is very important in all we do because he sees and knows the future..This is commendable ma!

  • UGWU, CHINAGOROM JOSEPH

    Wonderful,Quotes, Ma. You are indeed very creative. They are original as i have not heard exactly the same quotes any other place. I like the number 4 and 5. God bless you!

  • ohakwe oluchi judith

    The Christian does not think God will love us because we are good, but that God will make us good because He loves us…bless you ma FOR THIS PIECE I WAS INSPIRED

  • Akwara Agatha Uchechi

    We could go on and on but we wont be able to fully classify God’s attributes. His love is unconditional and unfailing. He is ever available to us in every areas of life and everytime we need him. His name is Alpha and Omega. I call him Mighty working God

  • Okorie Flora

    These quotes are amazing and touching. It makes us know more about our God. we could go on and on but we will not be able to call all the attributes of God and his unconditional love for us. He is my rock and salvation and will always be. be blessed MA.

  • Paschal Odigonma Victoria

    No 4&5..hmm. So many Christians have forgotten that is an emotional affair. They feel all they have to do is sow a seed, they forget the worship of God which is very important.

  • Happiness Saturday

    Many people always believe to get everything from God immediately they ask him .But we should worship him in spirit and in truth.

  • CHUKWU MICHAEL

    FROM all the quotes,it is evidently clear God is more than anything,everything we could imagine.HE knows the end from the beginning

  • ASOGWA CHIBUZOR HENRY

    This one is true and assured.Tomorrow holds a promise when it’s seen through the eyes of God.God is the alpha and omega.he know what good is there for us tomorrow

  • ONUOHA PROSPER

    God is vast and layered in mystery. It’s impossible to pigeonhole him. YES INDEED.God is everything one could ever treasure in life.for he knows our thought,suffering and desires,he himself is a mystery who no being could ever describe

  • CHINEGWU OBINNA GODWILL

    You have an infinitesimal fraction of eternity to spend on earth. With God’s help, you can make it count.we are all passengers on this earth with God by our side our actions and achievement will all be significant

  • God is an epitome of creativity, he’s diverse, words are not even enough to describe him. When you put him first in your life, nothing can go wrong!

  • Anabude oluchi

    Well said ma but the quote I would love to point out is number three going with the fact that a life without God is filled with crises and there is no achievement or success that cannot be attained if God be with you

  • Mbata Jemita

    This is indeed lovely ma. The second quote truly got me. I remember growing up I asked my mum of the person that created God before he created us and in return I got I that it’s all a mystery! Nice post.

  • ifunaya chukwuemeka

    The mills of God grind slowly, an English proverb says. But they do grind and you have the best flour afterwards.his does it for me and the one of tomorrow makes sense when seen through God’s eyes..such profound deep meaning words ..cant wait to not just post it and quote you Ma but use it to mirror my decisions in life

  • Amarachi Duru

    “Worship of God is not a currency to buy ursef good health, easier circumstances and wealth”.
    This is so true as I see the fair weather kind of Christianity in play today.
    People want a payback for everything they spend in the service of God. They want a reward and feel since they serve God, all should and must always be well with them. No arguments about that. But the truth is, once in a while, we have to get tested as in Malachi 3:3 states. The refiner indeed has to purify us.
    Thank you ma for this.

  • Okechukwu Obiora C

    God is love for he is the Alpha and Omega. I can’t stop thinking about my Heavenly Father who has my back everytime. God bless you ma

  • “If we want to be a blessing on the earth, we should put God in the saddle of our lives”… This quote tells us the importance of God in our life. We should put God first, and believe in him and our days on earth will be fruitful.

  • Bob Charles Ngene

    No. 10 is a hit quote!!! This post is proof that God actually loves his people enough to bless them with words of wisdom

    Thank you Aunty Edifh

  • Ugwu Chiamaka

    “Tomorrow holds a promise when it’s seen through the eyes of God.” This is my favorite quote among the rest of them because it reminds me of the hope God gives.

  • Ossai Chidimma Linda

    The bonus qoute:The mills of God grind slowly, an English proverb says. But they do grind and you have the best flour afterwards. I know despite everything we will be alright by his grace.

  • Emmanuel Steve Sunny

    I particularly enjoyed Quote 5. No doubt, if you’re not emotionally committed to the things of God, you cannot reap from God. God cannot be deceived, and He knows those who serve him diligently in spirit and in truth. If you give to God without emotional or serious commitment then you’ve given nothing, drawing inference from the story of Cain and Abel. May God help us!

  • Bryan. c. okoroigwe

    ‘God’s principal tense is the past participle’ Resonated deep within me. Kudos ma

  • Adiukwu Desire

    “If we want to be a blessing on the earth, we should put God in the saddle of our lives”. This is a blatant truth. Without God I can do nothing. He holds my future. So I can’t be a blessing to my generation without knowing the holder of my future. Factor God is important to me. There is a popular quote that says “Grace signifies G- God factor in the RACE.” God bless you Aunty Edith for the 10 witty quotes about God.

  • Abaraonye, Chidinma Blessing

    Beautiful quotes ma. I so much like the bonus quote talking about God’s mill grinding slowing…this is to test our patience and produce a beautiful testimony.

  • Ezekiel Stanley C.

    Indeed ma If we want to be a blessing on the earth, we should put God in the saddle of our lives. This a bitter pill to swallow as some of us rely on our strength, academic achievement which are bound to fail. Little wonder did Solomon Lange, a gospel artist once said some trust in thier chariots, fame, wealth, degree but we trust in the name of the Lord. May the Lord help us all to acknowledge him and put him first

  • Richards Orighomisan

    OK, I must confess, some of these quotes got me thinking for a while, they are witty but thought provoking. N0 4,struck me most anyway, cos that’s what present day Christianity is about, about 90% of the people we see go to church, go not really to serve God for who He is but for the things they can get. It is well.

  • Ndieze Kelechi

    No 8 rings true as regards human nature. We must learn to worship God in lack and plenty but most especially in plenty because it’s the true test of your loyalty to him when you have everything.

  • Blessing Chris Okeke

    Every saying made me think, thank you so much. Such a beautiful piece.

  • When you have God, you have peace. Nice one

  • Uchegbu Ogechi Elizabeth

    All the quote are amazing. The one that captivates me more is no 4. People tend to give God condition whenever they worship him. Some say God I will do this if You do that, which is very wrong.

  • Okoro Ugochi Angel

    A bird in the hand is worth a lot of trouble if not received from God. Chai d (world) said its better 2 keep what u hv than 2 risk losing it by searching 4 another, dat it doesn’t matter hw I got it. No. 1 quote hs given me a deeper thought. If nt recevied frm God, it will definitely crash. Thank u, ma, and God bless u abundantly.

  • Uchechukwu Chikezie

    This is wonderful ma,Mummy you are impeccable writer.

  • Itodo Amarachukwu Grace

    Ma you are covered in wisdom.
    Keep up the good work 😊😊😊

  • FAVOUR OMEJE

    These quotes are an eye opener to me.
    Of a truth, our relationship with God is not a business transaction without emotional committment. We must be fully committed to him(God) for us to be able to draw blessings from the ocean of his grace. You cannot be a partaker of his grace without being emotionally committed to him.
