Prayer must carry on our work as much as preaching; he preacheth not heartily to his people that will not pray for them.

All I know is that when I pray, coincidences happen; and when I don’t pray, they don’t happen.

Depend upon it, if you are bent on prayer, the devil will not leave you alone. He will molest you, tantalize you, block you … What he minds, and opposes steadily, is the prayer that prays on until it is prayed through, assured of the answer.

When we pray relying on the Holy Spirit, He will always bring us back to this one point: we are not heard because we are in earnest, or because we need to be heard, or because we will perish if not heard; we are heard only on the ground of the Atonement of the Lord. (Hebrews 10:19)

If all prayed, the wicked would flee from our midst or to the refuge.

A man can not lead others where he is not willing to go himself … Only a seeking, praying heart can truly encourage spiritual HUNGER in others!

Christ was in an agony at prayer (Luke 22: 44). Many when they pray are rather in a lethargy, than in an agony. When they are about the world they are all fire; when they are at prayer, they are all ice.
