The attitude of the average Christian today is relax and be raptured. But He is coming... and when God gets angry you´ve no idea what it is. Like a thousand volcanoes exploding. He has appointed a day in which He is going to judge the world and the poor blindworld doesn´t know much about it and the poor blind church doesn´t think much about it now.

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.

The law of prayer is the law of harvest: sow sparingly in prayer, reap sparingly sow bountifully in prayer, reap bountifully. The trouble is we are trying to get from our efforts what we never put into them.

Ministers who do not spend two hours a day in prayer are not worth a dime a dozen - degrees or no degrees.

I doubt if 5% of professing Christians in America are born again-and that's true of England!

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

The true church lives and moves and has its being in prayer.

If I don't believe the Word of God, why should you believe it? If we don't believe it, why should the world believe us?

If Thou canst do something with us and through us, then please, God, do something without us! Bypass us and take up a people who now know Thee not!

Prayer is preoccupation with our needs. Praise is preoccupation with our blessings. Worship is preoccupation with GOD Himself.
