If your faith does not make you pray, have nothing to do with it; get rid of it, and God help thee to begin again.

The axle of the wheels of the chariot of Providence is Infinite Love, and Gracious Wisdom is the perpetual charioteer.

The wicked watcheth the righteous, and seeketh to slay him. If it were not for the laws of the land, we should soon see a massacre of the righteous. Jesus was watched by his enemies, who were thirsting for his blood: his disciples must not look for favour where their Master found hatred and death.

If the professed convert distinctly and deliberately declares that he knows the Lord's will, but does not mean to attend to it, you are not to pamper his presumptions, but it is your duty to assure him that he is not saved.

He that knows how to overcome the Lord in prayer, has heaven and earth at his disposal.

All good is born in prayer, and all good springs from it.

The grace of the spirit comes only from heaven, and lights up the whole bodily presence.
