I prayed for Faith, and thought that some day Faith would come down and strike me like lightning. But Faith did not seem to come. One day I read in the tenth chapter of Romans, 'Now Faith cometh by hearing, and hearing by the Word of God'. I had closed my Bible, and prayed for Faith. I now opened my Bible, and began to study, and Faith has been growing ever since.

My friends, if we are going to do a great work for God, we must spend much time in prayer; we have got to be closeted with God.

The grand question of life is, Is my name written in heaven?

It is a masterpiece of the devil to make us believe that children cannot understand religion. Would Christ have made a child the standard of faith if He had known that it was not capable of understanding His words?

God never made a promise that was too good to be true.

I would rather a thousand times be five minutes at the feet of Christ than listen a lifetime to all the wise men in the world.

In our prayers, we talk to God, in our Bible study, God talks to us, and we had better let God do most of the talking.
