You never have to advertise a fire. Everyone comes running when there's a fire. Likewise, if your church is on fire, you will not have to advertise it. The community will already know it.

More quotes by Leonard Ravenhill
I'd rather have ten people that want God than 10,000 people who want to play church.
Leonard Ravenhill
Paul never glamorized the gospel! It is not success, but sacrifice! It's not a glamous gospel ,but a bloody gospel, a gory gospel, and a sacrificial gospel! 5 minutes inside eternity and we will wish that we had sacrificed more!!! Wept more, bled more, grieved more, loved more, prayed more, given more!!!
Leonard Ravenhill
Books on prayer are good, but not good enough. As books on cooking are good but hopeless unless there is food to work on, so with prayer. One can read a library of prayer books and not be one whit more powerful in prayer. We must learn to pray, and we must pray to learn to pray.
Leonard Ravenhill
The tragedy is that we have too many dead men in the pulpits giving out too many dead sermons to too many dead people.
Leonard Ravenhill
But have we Holy Ghost power — power that restricts the devil's power, pulls down strongholds, and obtains promises? Daring delinquents will be damned if they are not delivered from the devil's dominion. What has hell to fear other than a God-anointed, prayer-powered church?
Leonard Ravenhill
I want to see the glory of God invade this generation.
Leonard Ravenhill
I doubt that more than two percent of professing Christians in the United States are truly born again.
Leonard Ravenhill
A true shepherd leads the way. He does not merely point the way.
Leonard Ravenhill
The self-sufficient does not pray, the self-satisfied will not pray, the self-righteous cannot pray. No man is greater than his prayer life.
Leonard Ravenhill
The only reason we don't have revival is because we are willing to live without it!
Leonard Ravenhill
The more men pray, the less worldly they become. The less they pray, the more worldly they become. I am, of course, speaking of professing Christians at this point.
Leonard Ravenhill
Satan fools and feigns, blows and bluffs, and we so often take his threats to heart and forget the exceeding greatness of God's power to us.
Leonard Ravenhill
Preaching is not a profession, it's a passion! If a man can't preach with passion he shouldn't preach at all.
Leonard Ravenhill
All you have to do is get in a closer walk with God and you'll find your enemies are in your own church.
Leonard Ravenhill
Church unity comes from corporate humility.
Leonard Ravenhill
The law of prayer is the law of harvest: sow sparingly in prayer, reap sparingly sow bountifully in prayer, reap bountifully. The trouble is we are trying to get from our efforts what we never put into them.
Leonard Ravenhill
We have adopted the convenient theory that the Bible is a Book to be explained, whereas first and foremost it is a Book to be believed (and after that to be obeyed.)
Leonard Ravenhill
This life is a dressing room for eternity - THAT'S ALL IT IS!
Leonard Ravenhill
Prayer is as mighty as God, because He has committed Himself to answer it.
Leonard Ravenhill
If Jesus had preached the same message that ministers preach today, He would never have been crucified.
