It is doubtful whether God can bless a man greatly until He has hurt him deeply.

O God, wake us up to Jesus, give us His passion for prayer and His passion for people.
May our needs drive us to Thee and the needs of others drive us to them.

There is no condition of life in which we cannot abide in Jesus. We have to learn to abide in Him wherever we are placed.

I am convinced that what is needed in spiritual matters is reckless abandonment to the Lord Jesus Christ, reckless and uncalculating abandonment, with no reserve anywhere about it; not sad, you cannot be sad if you are abandoned absolutely.

The sin of prayerlessness is a proof…that the life of God in the soul is in deadly sickness and weakness.

I grieve that my love is no stronger, and that I am no more like Him. I wonder at His glory, and sink before Him with shame. How is it that the soul being of such value, and God so great, eternity so near and yet we are so little moved?

These days of ours have sore need of a generation of praying men, a band of men and women through whom God can bring his great and his greatest movements more fully into the world. The Lord our God is not straitened within himself, but he is straitened in us, by reason of our little faith and weak praying. A breed of Christian is greatly needed who will seek tirelessly after God–who will give him no rest, day and night, until he hearkens to their cry. The times demand praying men who are all athirst for God’s glory, who are broad and unselfish in their desires, quenchless for God, who seek him late and early, and who will give themselves no rest until the whole earth be filled with his glory.

The greatest Old or New Testament saints were on a level that is quite within our grasp. The same power that was available to them is also available to us.
