Prayer

Prayer is the Power of the Church – N. Murray

Prayer is the power of the Church; and could I speak as loud as the trumpet which is to wake the dead, I would thus call upon the Church, in all branches and in all lands: “Awake! awake! put on thy strength, 0 Zion! put on thy beautiful garments, O Jerusalem! Arise, shine, for thy light is come, and the glory of the Lord is risen upon thee.” Patriarchs, prophets, apostles. martyrs, reformers, were mighty in prayer.

My Single Prayer – Charles Spurgeon

I have now concentrated all my prayers into one, and that one prayer is this, that I may die to self, and live wholly to Him.

– Charles Spurgeon –

A Prayerless Soul is a Christless Soul – Charles Spurgeon

A prayerless soul is a Christless soul. Prayer is the lisping of the believing infant, the shout of the fighting believer, the requiem of the dying saint falling asleep in Jesus. It is the breath, the watchword, the comfort, the strength, the honour of a Christian.

– Charles Spurgeon –

Power of Prayer – John R. Mott

If added power attends the united prayer of two or three, what mighty triumphs there will be when hundreds of thousands of consistent members of the Church are with one accord day by day making intercession for the extension of Christ’s Kingdom.

– John R. Mott –

Prayer is Absolutely Vital – Charles Spurgeon

Whether we like it or not, asking is the rule of the Kingdom. If you may have everything by asking in His Name, and nothing without asking, I beg you to see how absolutely vital prayer is.

– Charles Spurgeon –

Beware the Prayerless Leader – David Smithers

A man can not lead others where he is not willing to go himself. Therefore, beware of the prayerless church leader who no longer readily admits his own need for more of the person and power of Jesus Christ. Only a seeking, praying heart can truly encourage spiritual HUNGER in others!
