More quotes by R. A. Torrey
The failure to return thanks for definite blessings received is a manifestation of ingratitude that grieves Jesus Christ.
R. A. Torrey
Cultivate prompt, exact, unquestioning, joyous obedience to every command that it is evident from its context applies to you. Be on the lookout for new orders from your King. Blessing lies in the direction of obedience to them. God's commands are but signboards that mark the road to present success and blessedness and to eternal glory.
R. A. Torrey
Every true revival from that day to this has had its earthly origin in prayer.
R. A. Torrey
I prayed fifteen years for the conversion of my oldest brother. When he seemed to be getting further and further away from any hope of conversion, I prayed on.
R. A. Torrey
The man or woman at home who prays often has as much to do with the effectiveness of the missionary on the field, and consequently with the results of his or her labors, as the missionary.
R. A. Torrey
Do not study commentaries, lesson helps or other books about the Bible: study the Bible itself. Do not study about the Bible, study the Bible. The Bible is the Word of God, and only the Bible is the Word of God.
R. A. Torrey
We are not saved by denying self, or taking up our cross, or doing anything else, we are saved by simply believing in Jesus.
R. A. Torrey
The one who is truly born again will love the Word of God.
R. A. Torrey
It is of the highest importance from the standpoint of experience that we know the Holy Spirit as a person.
R. A. Torrey
All that God is, and all that God has, are at the disposal of player. Prayer can do anything that God can do, and as God can do anything, prayer is omnipotent.
R. A. Torrey
The chief purpose of prayer is that God may be glorified in the answer.
R. A. Torrey
I am ready to meet God face to face tonight and look into those eyes of infinite holiness, for all my sins are covered by the atoning blood.
R. A. Torrey
Prayer can do anything that God can do.
R. A. Torrey
Ninety-nine Christians in every hundred are merely playing at Bible study and therefore ninety-nine Christians in every hundred are mere weaklings, when they might be giants, both in their Christian life and in their service.
R. A. Torrey
The reason why many fail in battle is because they wait until the hour of battle. The reason why others succeed is because they have gained their victory on their knees long before the battle came. Anticipate your battles fight them on your knees before temptation comes, and you will always have victory.
R. A. Torrey
Every Christian who does not study, really study, the Bible every day is a fool.
R. A. Torrey
Prayer that is born of meditation upon the Word of God is the prayer that soars upward most easily to God's listening ears.
R. A. Torrey
Prayer is the key that unlocks all the storehouses of God's. . .grace and power.
R. A. Torrey
If loving God with all our heart and soul and might is the greatest commandment, then it follows that not loving Him that way is the greatest sin.
R. A. Torrey
God has not changed and His ear is just as quick to hear the voice of real prayer, and His hand is just as long and strong to save as it ever was.
