All revival begins, and continues, in the prayer meeting. Some have also called prayer the “great fruit of revival.” In times of revival, thousands may be found on their knees for hours, lifting up their heartfelt cries, with thanksgiving, to heaven.
– Henry Blackaby –
We think of prayer as a preparation for work, or a calm after having done work, whereas prayer is the essential work. It is the supreme activity of everything that is noblest in our personality.
– Oswald Chambers –
A true shepherd leads the way. He does not merely point the way.
– Leonard Ravenhill –
The last words of Jesus to the church (in Revelation) were ‘Repent!’
– Leonard Ravenhill –
The Spirit of God first imparts love; he next inspires hope, and then gives liberty; and that is about the last thing we have in many of our churches.
– Dwight L. Moody –
Every work of God can be traced to some kneeling form.
– DL Moody –
The true church lives and moves and has its being in prayer.
– Leonard Ravenhill –
Prayer meetings are dead affairs when they are merely asking sessions; there is adventure, hope, and life when they are believing sessions, and the faith is corporately, practically and deliberately affirmed.
– Norman Grubb –
Intercession does not develop the one who intercedes; it blesses the lives of those for whom he intercedes. The reason so few of us intercede is because we don’t understand this.
– Oswald Chambers –
