In our communion with God, the difficulty is not on His side, but on ours.

Prayer
A life of prayer – Andrew Murray

There’s no better way to become involved in God’s work than this – Dick Eastman
In no other way can the believer become as fully involved with God’s work, especially the work of world evangelism, as in intercessory prayer.

He is a prayer-hearing God.

Dependent on prayer – EM Bounds
“Brethren, pray for us” (1 Thessalonians 5:25).
If Paul was so dependent on the prayers of God’s saints to give his ministry success, how much more important is it that the prayers of God’s saints be centered on the ministry of today!

Give ourselves to prayer – Andrew Murray
Let us give ourselves to be intercessors. Let us cry with importunity to God when we see people who need help, when the spirit of compassion stirs within us, when we feel our own powerlessness to help, or when we see obstacles in the way of our getting an answer. God alone can help. And in answer to our prayers, He will help.

My Motto – Samuel Logan Brengle
For the past ten years God has enabled me to keep a perfect, unbroken purpose to serve Him with my whole heart. No temptation has swerved that steadfast purpose. “HOLINESS TO THE LORD” (Exodus 28:36) has been my motto. My heart pants after Him and, as I seek Him in fervent, patient, believing prayer and in diligent searching of His Word, He is deepening the work of grace in my soul.

The inner chamber – Andrew Murray
Nowhere can we get to know the holiness of God, and come under His influence and power, except in the inner chamber. It has been well said: “No man can expect to make progress in holiness who is not often and long alone with God.”

Dealing with concerns – Corrie ten Boom
Any concern too small to be turned into a prayer is too small to be made into a burden.
