The lips that uttered them may be closed to death, the heart that felt them may have ceased to beat, but the prayers live before God, and God's heart is set on them and prayers outlive the lives of those who uttered them they outlive a generation, outlive an age, outlive a world.

The soul which has come into intimate contact with God in the silence of the prayer chamber is never out of conscious touch with the Father the heart is always going out to Him in loving communion, and the moment the mind is released from the task upon which it is engaged, it returns as naturally to God as the bird does to its nest.
Edward McKendree Bounds

Edward McKendree Bounds
Our praying, however, needs to be pressed and pursued with an energy that never tires, a persistency which will not be denied, and a courage which never fails.
Edward McKendree Bounds
That man cannot possibly be called a Christian, who does not pray.
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
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
Prayer is not learned in a classroom but in the closet.
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
Prayer in Jesus' name puts the crowning crown on God, because it glorifies Him through the Son and it pledges the Son to give to men 'whatsoever and anything' they shall ask.
Edward McKendree Bounds
We can never know God as it is our privilege to know Him by brief repetitions that are requests for personal favors, and nothing more.
Edward McKendree Bounds
Prayer honors God, acknowledges His being, exalts His power, adores His providence, secures His aid.
