The greatest, strongest, mightiest plea for the church of God in the world is the existence of the Spirit of God in its midst, and the works of the Spirit of God are the true evidences of Christianity. They say miracles are withdrawn, but the Holy Spirit is the standing miracle of the church of God to-day.

Prayer is one of the necessary wheels of the machinery of providence.

Trust in the person's promise who dares to refuse what they fear they cannot perform.

For a successful season of prayer, the best beginning is confession.

The nearer a man lives to God, the more intensely has he to mourn over his own evil heart." -Charles Spurgeon

If Christ be anything he must be everything. O rest not till love and faith in Jesus be the master passions of your soul!

I trust there are none here present, who profess to be followers of Christ who do not also practice prayer in their families. We may have no positive commandment for it, but we believe that it is so much in accord with the genius and spirit of the gospel, and that it is so commended by the example of the saints, that the neglect thereof is a strange inconsistency.
