Notice, we never pray for folks we gossip about, and we never gossip about the folk for whom we pray! For prayer is a great deterrent.
Leonard Ravenhill
Image
God doesn't answer prayer, He answers desperate prayer!
Leonard Ravenhill

We need to close every church in the land for one Sunday and cease listening to a man so we can hear the groan of the Spirit which we in our lush pews have forgotten.

The only power that God yields to is that of prayer.
Leonard Ravenhill
Image
By our attitude to prayer we tell God that what was begun in the Spirit we can finish in the flesh.

Our spiritual immutarity never shows up more than in our lack of praying, be it alone or in a church prayer meeting. Let 20% of the chior members fail to turn up for rehearsal and the chior master is offended. Let 20% of the church members turn up for a prayer meeting, and the pastor is elated.

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.

Can any deny that in the modern church setup the main cause of anxiety is money? Yet that which tries the modern churches the most, troubled the New Testament Church the least. Our emphasis is on paying theirs was on praying. When we have paid, the place is taken when they had prayed, the place was shaken!

Praying men stop sinning and sinning men stop praying.

Great eagles fly alone great lions hunt alone great souls walk alone-alone with God. Such loneliness is hard to endure, and impossible to enjoy unless God accompanied. Prophets are lone men they walk alone, pray alone and God makes them alone.

God asks the best we have Because He gave the Best He had.
