Jesus taught that perseverance is the essential element in prayer.

God shapes the world by prayer. The prayers of God's saints are the capitol stock of heaven by which God carries on His great work upon the earth.

The conditions of praying are the conditions of righteousness, holiness, and salvation.

We can do nothing without prayer. All things can be done by importunate prayer. It surmounts or removes all obstacles, overcomes every resisting force and gains its ends in the face of invincible hindrances.

Talking to men for God is a great thing, but talking to God for men is greater still.

The men who have done the most for God in this world have been early on their knees.

If God is not first in our thoughts and efforts in the morning, He will be in the last place the remainder of the day.
