If the spiritual life be healthy, under the full power of the Holy Spirit, praying without ceasing will be natural.

Power
As water seeks the lowest place – Andrew Murray
Just as water ever seeks and fills the lowest place, so the moment God finds you abased and empty, His glory and power flow in.

What we need – John Stott
What we need is not more learning, not more eloquence, not more persuasion, not more organization, but more power from the Holy Spirit.

A demonstration of the supernatural – Duncan Campbell
The average man is not going to be impressed by our publicity, our posters or our programs, but let there be a demonstration of the supernatural in the realm of religion, and at once man is arrested.

Waiting for God – G. Campbell Morgan
Waiting for God means power to do nothing save under command. This is not lack of power to do anything. Waiting for God needs strength rather than weakness. It is power to do nothing. It is the strength that holds strength in check. It is the strength that prevents the blundering activity which is entirely false and will make true activity impossible when the definite command comes.

The Spirit of Power and Love – Samuel Bolton

(see Romans 8:15, 2 Timothy 1:7)

Seek God Alone – John Wesley

DL Moody was a good preacher but a greater pray-er – RA Torrey
Out of a very intimate acquaintance with D.L. Moody, I wish to testify that he was a far greater pray-er than he was preacher. Time and time again, he was confronted by obstacles that seemed insurmountable, but he always knew the way to overcome all difficulties. He knew the way to bring to pass anything that needed to be brought to pass. He knew and believed in the deepest depths of his soul that nothing was too hard for the Lord, and that prayer could do anything that God could do.

Pray With Authority – T. Stanley Soltau
Pray with authority … Some have spoken of this as “throne prayer”–praying with one’s hand touching the throne of God.
