Cheerfulness is the support of our strength; in the joy of the Lord are we strong.

Shall I give you yet another reason why you should pray? I have preached my very heart out. I could not say any more than I have said. Will not your prayers accomplish that which my preaching fails to do? Is it not likely that the Church has been putting forth its preaching hand but not its praying hand? Oh dear friends! Let us agonize in prayer!

Jesus gave both His hands to the nails; how can I keep back one of mine from this blessed work? Night and day He toiled and prayed for me; how can I give a single hour to selfish indulgence? Up, idle heart; stretch out thy hand to work, or uplift it to pray: heaven and hell are in earnest; LET ME BE SO…

O, how precious is Christ! How can it be that I have thought so little of him…

Nobody can do as much damage to the church of God as the man who is within its walls, but not within its life.

Faith in Jesus is more than a match for worldly trials, temptations, unbelief, and overcomes them ALL. The same absorbing principle shines in the faithful service of God; with an enthusiastic love for Jesus, difficulties are surmounted, sacrifices become pleasures, sufferings are honors…if Christ be anything, He must be EVERYTHING. Oh rest not till love and faith in JESUS be the master passions of your soul!

We must remember that the goal of prayer is the ear of God. Unless that is gained, the prayer has utterly failed. The uttering of it may have kindled devotional feeling in our minds, the hearing of it may have comforted and strengthened the hearts of those with whom we have prayed, but if the prayer has not gained the heart of God, it has failed in its essential purpose.

There is dust enough on some of your Bibles to write ‘damnation’ with your fingers.

The more I look at the sufferings of the Son of God, the more sure I am that they must meet my case. Why did He suffer, if not to turn aside the penalty from us?
