The devil trembles when we pray – Samuel Chadwick

The devil trembles when we pray – Samuel Chadwick

Pray with all your might – William Booth

Pray with all your might – William Booth

You must pray will all your might. That does not mean saying your prayers, or sitting gazing about in church or chapel with eyes wide open while someone else says them for you. It means fervent, effectual, untiring wrestling with God. [Be sure that with] this kind of prayer, the devil and the world and your own indolent, unbelieving nature will oppose.

My God, Thou knowest my infirmities; and Thou knowest my desire to overcome them. Send forth Thy Spirit to help me in this warfare. Give me wisdom, O God, and the meekness of wisdom. Let the power of Christ rest upon me.
