More quotes by Edward McKendree Bounds
If we would have God in the closet, God must have us out of the closet. There is no way of praying to God, but by living to God.
Edward McKendree Bounds
Prayer is of transcendent importance. Prayer is the mightiest agent to advance God's work. Praying hearts and hands only can do God's work. Prayer succeeds when all else fails.
Edward McKendree Bounds
The stream of praying cannot rise higher than the fountain of living.
Edward McKendree Bounds
Only God can move mountains, but faith and prayer can move God
Edward McKendree Bounds
Praying men are God's agents on earth, the representative of government of Heaven, set to a specific task on the earth.
Edward McKendree Bounds
I feel it is far better to begin with God, to see His face first, to get my soul near Him before it is near another. In general it is best to have at least one hour alone with God before engaging in anything else.
Edward McKendree Bounds
Prayer thrives in the atmosphere of true devotion.
Edward McKendree Bounds
We must lose all for Christ in order to gain all for Christ.
Edward McKendree Bounds
Natural ability and educational advantages do not figure as factors in this matter of prayer but a capacity for faith, the power of a thorough consecration, the ability of self-littleness, an absolute losing of one's self in God's glory and an ever present and insatiable yearning and seeking after all the fullness of God.
Edward McKendree Bounds
He only can truly pray who is all aglow for holiness, for God, and for heaven.

Edward McKendree Bounds
God shapes the world by prayer.
Edward McKendree Bounds
It is only when the whole heart is gripped with the passion of prayer that the life-giving fire descends, for none but the earnest man gets access to the ear of God.
Edward McKendree Bounds
There is power through prayer. For many Christians, prayer is nothing special, just something we're supposed to do - go to church, tithe, read the Bible, pray. But prayer should be so much more than an item on our to do lists.
Edward McKendree Bounds
if the devil can get the church to withdraw from prayer by believing reasonable excuses, the church is under his dominion.
Edward McKendree Bounds
It is not great talents or great learning or great preachers that God needs, but men great in holiness, great in faith, great in love, great in fidelity, great for God.
Edward McKendree Bounds
Preaching is not the performance of an hour. It is the outflow of a life. It takes twenty years to make a sermon because it takes twenty years to make the man. The true sermon is a thing of life. The sermon grows because the man grows.
Edward McKendree Bounds
Prayer is a specific divine appointment, an ordinance of Heaven, whereby God purposes to carry out His gracious designs on earth and to execute and make efficient the plan of salvation.
Edward McKendree Bounds
Mans access in prayer to God opens everything and makes his impoverishment his wealth. All things are his through prayer.
Edward McKendree Bounds
God shapes the world by prayer. The more prayer there is in the world the better the world will be, the mightier the forces of against evil
