No one can believe how powerful prayer is and what it can effect, except those who have learned it by experience. Whenever I have prayed earnestly, I have been heard and have obtained more than I prayed for. God sometimes delays, but He always comes.
– Martin Luther –
The only saving faith is that which casts itself on God for life or death
– Martin Luther –
When the devil throws our sins up to us and declares that we deserve death and hell, we ought to speak thus: “I admit that I deserve death and hell. What of it? Does this mean that I shall be sentenced to eternal damnation? By no means. For I know One who suffered and made satisfaction in my behalf. His name is Jesus Christ, the Son of God. Where he is, there shall I be also.”
– Martin Luther –
As a shoe maker makes a shoe, or a tailor makes a coat, so ought a Christian to pray. Prayer is the daily business of a Christian.
– Martin Luther –
Faith like light, should always be simple and unbending; while love, like warmth, should beam forth on every side and bend to every necessity of our brethren.
– Martin Luther –
I have so much business to do today that I shall not be able to get through it with less than three hours [of] prayer.
– Martin Luther –
Faith like light, should always be simple and unbending; while love, like warmth, should beam forth on every side and bend to every necessity of our brethren.
– Martin Luther –
Remove Christ from the Scriptures and there is nothing left.
– Martin Luther –
If I am not allowed to laugh in heaven, I don’t want to go there.
