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.

More quotes by Leonard Ravenhill
Love is blind. Marriage is an eye-opener.
Leonard Ravenhill
When there's something in the Bible that churches don't like, they call it 'legalism.'
Leonard Ravenhill
Can any deny that in the modern church setup the main cause of anxiety is money? Yet that which tries the modern churches the most, troubled the New Testament Church the least. Our emphasis is on paying theirs was on praying. When we have paid, the place is taken when they had prayed, the place was shaken!
Leonard Ravenhill
This much is sure in all churches, forgetting party labels the smallest meeting numerically is the prayer-meeting. If weak in prayer we are weak everywhere.
Leonard Ravenhill
Revival is when God gets so sick and tired of being misrepresented that He shows Himself.
Leonard Ravenhill
Isn't it amazing that God gives breath to a man who is going to blaspheme Him all day!
Leonard Ravenhill
At God's counter there are no sale days, for the price of revival is ever the same: travail!
Leonard Ravenhill
Would we send our daughters off to have sex if it would benefit our country? Yet, we send our sons off to kill when we think it would benefit our country!
Leonard Ravenhill
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?
Leonard Ravenhill
Redemption is a magnificent thing ..the life of God in the soul of man
Leonard Ravenhill
Why in God's name do you expect to be accepted everywhere? How is it the world couldn't get on with the holiest man that ever lived, and it can get on with you and me?
Leonard Ravenhill
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.
Leonard Ravenhill
They're called in the Scripture the Beatitudes. You know why they're called the Beatitudes without being prestigious? Because they should be the attitudes of every believer. That's the normal Christian life, not the abnormal Christian life. The normal Christian life is holiness.
Leonard Ravenhill
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.
Leonard Ravenhill
The true Church is born from above. In it there are no sinners, and outside of it no saints. No man can put another's name on its member's roll and no man can cross another's name off that roll.
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
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
This silly world outside thinks it is finished with Jesus Christ but they haven't even started with Him yet.
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
If weak in prayer we are weak everywhere.
