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

The story of every great Christian achievement is the history of answered prayer.

. . . every preacher who does not make prayer a mighty factor in his own life and ministry is weak as a factor in God's work and is powerless to project God's cause in this world.

A holy life does not live in the closet, but it cannot live without the closet.

Men would pray better if they lived better. They would get more from God if they lived more obedient and well-pleasing to God.

It is not great talents or great learning or great preachers that God needs, but men great in holiness, great in faith, great in love, great in fidelity, great for God.

The pride of learning is against the dependent humility of prayer.
