“Prayer is a serious thing. We may be taken at our words.”

You might as well try to hear without ears or breathe without lungs, as to try to live a Christian life without the Spirit of God in your heart.

If a man just stops to think what he has to praise God for, he will find there is enough to keep him singing praises for a week.

Fervency in prayer by the power of the Holy Spirit is a good preservative against thoughts rushing in. Flies never settle on the boiling pot.

This lost world will never be reached and brought back to loyalty to God, until the children of God wake up to the fact that they have a mission in the world. If we are true Christians we should all be missionaries.

Spread out your petition before God, and then say, “Thy will, not mine, be done.” The sweetest lesson I have learned in God’s school is to let the Lord choose for me.

Every one of our children will be brought into the ark, if we pray and work earnestly for them.

Out of 100 men, one will read the Bible, the other 99 will read the Christian.

The fact is, we are leaky vessels, and we have to keep right under the fountain all the time to keep full of Christ, and so have fresh supply.

Grace isn’t a little prayer you chant before receiving a meal. It’s a way to live. The law tells me how crooked I am. Grace comes along and straightens me out.

In our prayers, we talk to God, in our Bible study, God talks to us, and we had better let God do most of the talking.

Real true faith is man’s weakness leaning on God’s strength.

He who kneels the most, stands the best.

Some people think God does not like to be troubled with our constant coming and asking. The way to trouble God is not to come at all.

Small numbers make no difference to God. There is nothing small if God is in it.

I believe many a man is praying to God to fill him, when he is full already with something else. Before we pray that God would fill us, I believe we ought to pray Him to empty us.

Those who say they will forgive but can’t forget, simply bury the hatchet but leave the handle out for immediate use.

There is no need to get to a place of prayer; pray wherever you are.

The greatest use of your words is prayer. Talk to God about EVERYTHING, all the time. Maintain a running conversation.

My words are written like prayers begging to be answered by you.

When we meet grace, it becomes the fuel of our faith. We pray, we read our Bibles, we worship and we live the purest lifestyle we can because we love a person.

Here are the two best prayers I know: ‘Help me, help me, help me’ and ‘Thank you, thank you, thank you.

You were made for answered prayers.

God’s purposes and plans will not fail. Before you spend all your prayer time telling Him about yours, ask about His.

Start today by practicing constant conversation with God and continual mediation on his Word. Prayer lets you speak to God; mediation lets God speak to you.
