Importunate praying is the earnest inward movement of the heart toward God.
Prayer is not learned in a classroom but in the closet.
Crucified preaching only can give life. Crucified preaching can come only from a crucified man.
Private place and plenty of time are the life of prayer.
Four things let us ever keep in mind: God hears prayer, God heeds prayer, God answers prayer, and God delivers by prayer.
Prayer is no fitful, short-lived thing. It is no voice crying unheard and unheeded in the silence. It is a voice which goes into God's ear, and it lives as long as God's ear is open to holy pleas, as long as God's heart is alive to holy things.
