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.

More quotes by Leonard Ravenhill
Any true revival can be proven by the fact that it changed the moral climate of an area or nation.
Leonard Ravenhill
I want to see the glory of God invade this generation.
Leonard Ravenhill
He who fears God fears no man.
Leonard Ravenhill
Where,oh,where are the eternity-conscious believers? Where are the souls white-hot for God because they fear His holy name and presence and so live with eternity's values in view?
Leonard Ravenhill
Christ cared enough for sinners to die for them. Do we care enough for sinners to live to reach them?
Leonard Ravenhill
The world has lost the power to blush over its vice the Church has lost her power to weep over it.
Leonard Ravenhill
We live in a day of itching ears, but I have no commission from God to scratch them.
Leonard Ravenhill
Prayer is preoccupation with our needs. Praise is preoccupation with our blessings. Worship is preoccupation with GOD Himself.
Leonard Ravenhill
Are you wiser in God (now) than you were last year at this time? Peter says we're to grow in grace and the knowledge of the Lord Jesus Christ.
Leonard Ravenhill
Men build our churches but do not enter them, print our Bibles but do not read them, talk about God but do not believe Him, speak of Christ but do not trust Him for salvation, sing our hymns and then forget them.
Leonard Ravenhill
To stand before men on behalf of God is one thing. To stand before God on behalf of men is something entirely different.
Leonard Ravenhill
The question isn't were you challenged. The question is were you changed?
Leonard Ravenhill
Men of prayer must be men of steel, for they will be assaulted by Satan even before they attempt to assault his kingdom.
Leonard Ravenhill
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.
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
The first essential for the coming of the Holy Ghost into a heart today is that the heart should be cleansed from sin, for the Holy Spirit does not fill an unclean heart. What God has cleansed, He then fills. Finally, whom God fills, He uses. A holy life is the authentic sign of being filled with the Spirit.
Leonard Ravenhill
The man who can get believers to praying would, under God, usher in the greatest revival that the world has ever known.
Leonard Ravenhill
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.
Leonard Ravenhill
The less power a church has, the more entertainment it has.
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.
