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

Image
Five minutes after you die you'll know how you should have lived.
Leonard Ravenhill
Image
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.

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.

I believe every church is either supernatural or superficial. I don't believe there's any middle ground.
Leonard Ravenhill
Image
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.

Image
Revival is when God gets so sick and tired of being misrepresented that He shows Himself.
Leonard Ravenhill
Image
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
Image
Is the world crucified to you or does it fascinate you?
Leonard Ravenhill
Image
There's only one proof of the Holy Ghost in your life and that's a holy life.
Leonard Ravenhill
Image
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
Image
Never have so many left so much to so few.

Image
If Jesus came back today, he wouldn’t cleanse the temple, he’d cleanse the pulpit.

I'd rather have ten people that want God than 10,000 people who want to play church.
