We cannot talk to God strongly when we have not lived for God strongly. The closet cannot be made holy to God when the life has not been holy 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 only limits to prayer are the promises of God and His ability to fulfill those promises.

Praying men must be strong in hope, and faith, and prayer.

Prayer is the one prime, eternal condition by which the Father is pledged to put the Son in possession of the world. Christ prays through His people. Had there been importunate, universal, and continuous prayer by God's people, long ere this the earth had been possessed for Christ.

He who would pray, must obey.

We can learn more in an hour praying, when praying indeed, than from many hours of rigorous study.
