In doing God's work, there is no substitute for praying. The men of prayer cannot be displaced with other kinds of men.

Prayer honors God, acknowledges His being, exalts His power, adores His providence, secures His aid.

It is only when the whole heart is gripped with the passion of prayer that the life-giving fire descends, for none but the earnest man gets access to the ear of God.

By prayer, the ability is secured to feel the law of love, to speak according to the law of love, and to do everything in harmony with the law of love.

Private place and plenty of time are the life of prayer.

He who would pray, must obey.

The greatest value in trouble comes to those who bow lowest before the throne.
