The older I get, the more I am aware of my desperate need of Christ Himself. I want to listen and learn and glorify Him
– Elizabeth Elliot –
Self is the root, the tree, and the branches of all the evils of our fallen state
– William Law –
There is a general kind of praying which fails for lack of precision. It is as if a regiment of soldiers should all fire off their guns anywhere. Possibly somebody would be killed, but the majority of the enemy would be missed
– Charles Spurgeon –
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 greatest old or new testament saints were on a level that is quite within our reach. The same spiritual power that enabled them to become our spiritual heroes, is also available to us.
– Goulburn –
No man is greater than his prayer life. The pastor who is not praying is playing; the people who are not praying are straying. Poverty-stricken as the Church is today in many things, she is most stricken here, in the place of prayer. In the matter of New Testament, Spirit-inspired, hell-shaking, world-breaking prayer, never has so much been left to so few. For this kind of prayer there is no substitute. We do it – or we die!
– Leonard Ravenhill –
Towers of happiness built on the sand of confusion usually ruble down. I’m digging deep, I’m digging deep. Gotta find that solid rock foundation. I’m digging deep, I’m washing with water and cleansing in soil. When I reach a solid self, if there is one , then I’ll build a cabin of home in my heart. And maybe share it with another solid soul

(I am) resolved, never to do anything which I would be afraid to do if it were the last hour of my life.
