Preaching is not a profession, it's a passion! If a man can't preach with passion he shouldn't preach at all.

More quotes by Leonard Ravenhill
Testimonies are wonderful. But, so often our lives don't fit our testimonies.
Leonard Ravenhill
Five minutes after you die you'll know how you should have lived.
Leonard Ravenhill
Quit playing, start praying. Quit feasting, start fasting. Talk less with men, talk more with God. Listen less to men, listen to the words of God. Skip travel, start travail.
Leonard Ravenhill
The apostles had no gold, but lots of glory. We have lots of gold, but no glory.
Leonard Ravenhill
The only reason we don't have revival is because we are willing to live without it!
Leonard Ravenhill
Life begets life by its very nature. By the same token, inspired men inspire.
Leonard Ravenhill
No faith is required to do the possible actually only a morsel of this atom-powered stuff is needed to do the impossible, for a piece as large as a mustard seed will do more than we have ever dreamed of.
Leonard Ravenhill
Tell me what time you spend alone with God... and I'll tell you how spiritual you are.
Leonard Ravenhill
You can't develop character by reading books. You develop it from conflict.
Leonard Ravenhill
The brutal, soul-shaking truth is that we are so earthly minded we are of no heavenly use.
Leonard Ravenhill
The Bible parable says that while men slept, the enemy sowed tares among the wheat. A boy who rises at 4:30 to deliver papers is considered a go-getter, but to urge our young people to rise at 5:30 to pray is considered fanaticism. We must once again wear the harness of discipline. There is no other way.
Leonard Ravenhill
One of these days some simple soul will pick up the Book of God, read it, and believe it. Then the rest of us will be embarrassed.
Leonard Ravenhill
The tragedy in our colleges and seminaries right now is that we turn men out who know the word of God. That is never going to turn the world. The question is not whether they know the Word of God.... The question is......Do they know the God of the Word?
Leonard Ravenhill
Thou shalt call his name Jesus. He shall save his people from their sins.
Leonard Ravenhill
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.
Leonard Ravenhill
Prayer is as mighty as God, because He has committed Himself to answer it.
Leonard Ravenhill
When God-given, heaven-sent revival does come, it will undo in weeks the damage that blasphemous Modernism has taken years to build.
Leonard Ravenhill
Praying Christians know nothing of their friends
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
If you're going to be a true Christian, I'll tell you one thing amongst others: it'll be a lonely life. It's a narrow way and it becomes narrower and narrower and narrower.
