John Bunyan
Image
The spirit of prayer is more precious than treasures of gold and silver.
John Bunyan

A sensible thanksgiving for mercies received is a mighty prayer in the Spirit of God. It prevails with Him unspeakably.

John Bunyan
Image
The Lord uses his flail of tribulation to separate the chaff from the wheat.
John Bunyan
Image
Run when I can, walk when I cannot run, and creep when I cannot walk.
John Bunyan
Image
Wherefore, though the Christian, as a Christian, is the only man at liberty, as called thereunto of God yet his liberty is limited to things that are good: he is not licensed thereby to indulge the flesh.
John Bunyan
Image
a man there was, though some did count him mad, the more he cast away the more he had.
John Bunyan
Image
To pray rightly, you must make God your hope, stay, and all. Right prayer sees nothing substantial or worth being concerned about except God.
John Bunyan
Image
Though it be said that faith cometh by hearing, yet it is the Spirit that worketh faith in the heart through hearing, or else they are not profited by hearing.
John Bunyan
Image
No child of God sins to that degree as to make himself incapable of forgiveness.
John Bunyan
