The world knows little of the works wrought by prayer.

God commands us to be filled with the Spirit, and if we are not filled, it is because we are living beneath our privileges

The man that is popular with the world is not a friend of Jesus. You cannot serve two masters. The world hates Christ, and if you are a friend of the world you cannot be a friend of His. You may be sure that something is wrong with you when everybody is your friend.

His is a loving, tender hand, full of sympathy and compassion.

Seeking to perpetuate one's name on earth is like writing on the sand by the seashore; to be perpetual it must be written on eternal shores.

The law stops every man's mouth. God will have a man humble himself down on his face before Him, with not a word to say for himself. Then God will speak to him, when he owns that he is a sinner, and gets rid of all his own righteousness.

Prayer is a serious thing. We may be taken at our words.
