The only reason we don't have revival is because we are willing to live without it!
Leonard Ravenhill
Image
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.

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!!!

The church as we know it today seems a million miles from the New Testament church. That may be a great generalization, but I will stand on it. There is a gulf between our average Christianity and the church of New Testament that makes the Grand Canyon look like a cavity in someone's tooth.

As long as we are content to live without revival, we will.

LORD strengthen me where I am too weak and weaken me where I am too strong!

In the New Testament church it says they were all amazed - And now in our churches everybody wants to be amused.

Image
We Christians are debtors to all men at all times in all places, but we are so smug to the lostness of men. We've been 'living in Laodicea,' lax, loose, lustful, and lazy. Why is there this criminal indifference to the lostness of men? Our condemnation is that we know how to live better than we are living.

Redemption is a magnificent thing ..the life of God in the soul of man

It may be that Satan has little cause to fear most preaching. Yet past experiences sting him to rally all his infernal army to fight against God's people praying.

Children can tell you what Channel 7 says, but not what Matthew 7 says.
Leonard Ravenhill

Prayer is as mighty as God, because He has committed Himself to answer it.

If you kneel before God, you will stand before men.

A true shepherd leads the way. He does not merely point the way.
