Believers keep up and maintain their walk with God by secret prayer. The spirit of grace is always accompanied with the spirit of supplication. It is the very breath of the new creature, the fan of the divine life, whereby the spark of holy fire, kindled in the soul by God, is not only kept in, but raised into a flame.
George WhitefieldO turn to Him [Jesus Christ], turn in a sense of your own unworthiness, and be not faithless, but believing.
George WhitefieldLet my name die everywhere, let even my friends forget me, if by that means the cause of the blessed Jesus may be promoted
George WhitefieldIf an earthly king was to issue out a royal proclamation, on performing or not performing the conditions therein contained, the life or death of his subjects entirely depended, how solicitous would they be to hear what those conditions were? And shall not we pay the same respect to the King of kings and Lord of lords and lend an attentive ear to his ministers, when they are declaring, in his name, how our pardon, peace, and happiness may be secured?
