I am perfectly confident that the man who does not spend hours alone with God will never know the anointing of the Holy Spirit.

The Church Must Be Spirit-Filled – Samuel Chadwick
The church that is man-managed instead of God-governed is doomed to failure. A ministry that is college-trained but not Spirit-filled works no miracles.

Spirit-Filled All the Time – Leonard Ravenhill
Everyone recognizes that Stephen was Spirit-filled when he was performing wonders. Yet, he was just as Spirit-filled when he was being stoned to death.

What the Church Needs Today – EM Bounds
What the Church needs to-day is not more machinery or better, not new organizations or more and novel methods, but men whom the Holy Ghost can use, men of prayer, men mighty in prayer. The Holy Ghost does not flow through methods, but through men. He does not come on machinery, but on men. He does not anoint plans, but men, men of prayer.

Desperate Need for the Holy Spirit – Samuel Chadwick
Destitute of the Fire of God, nothing else counts; possessing Fire, nothing else matters.

The Holy Spirit Has Little Chance Today – CT Studd

Refrain from preaching unless … – Duncan Campbell
Preaching truth without the anointing of the Holy Ghost is helping
the devil to damn souls. There’s nothing on earth today so
deadening as preaching without heaven’s anointing. Refrain from
preaching unless you know that the dew of heaven is on your soul.

You Need the Holy Spirit – DL Moody
There is no use in running before you are sent; there is no use in attempting to do God’s work without God’s power. A man working without this unction, a man working without this anointing, a man working without the Holy Ghost upon him, is losing time after all.
