Image
if the devil can get the church to withdraw from prayer by believing reasonable excuses, the church is under his dominion.

Image
It is true that Bible prayers in word and print are short, but the praying men of the Bible were with God through many a sweet and holy wrestling hour. They won by few words but long waiting.

Image
The word of God is the food by which prayer is nourished and made strong.
Edward McKendree Bounds
Image
. . . every preacher who does not make prayer a mighty factor in his own life and ministry is weak as a factor in God's work and is powerless to project God's cause in this world.

Image
Non-praying is lawlessness, discord, anarchy.
Edward McKendree Bounds
Image
Prayer is the one prime, eternal condition by which the Father is pledged to put the Son in possession of the world. Christ prays through His people. Had there been importunate, universal, and continuous prayer by God's people, long ere this the earth had been possessed for Christ.
Edward McKendree Bounds
Image
God is waiting to be put to the test by His people in prayer. He delights in being put to the test on His promises. It is His highest pleasure to answer prayer, to prove the reliability of His promises.
Edward McKendree Bounds
Image
Prayer and a holy life are one. They mutually act and react. Neither can survive alone. The absence of the one is the absence of the other.
Edward McKendree Bounds
Image
Public prayers are of little worth unless they are founded on or followed up by private praying.
Edward McKendree Bounds
Image
Four things let us ever keep in mind: God hears prayer, God heeds prayer, God answers prayer, and God delivers by prayer.
Edward McKendree Bounds
Image
God shapes the world by prayer. Prayers are deathless. They outlive the lives of those who uttered them.
