What is the cause of most backslidings? I believe, as a general rule, one of the chief causes is neglect of private prayer.

By affliction He teaches us many precious lessons, which without it we should never learn. By affliction He shows us our emptiness and weakness, draws us to the throne of grace, purifies our affections, weans us from the world, makes us long for heaven.

No prayers can be heard which do not come from a forgiving heart.

The work of the preacher resembles that of the sower. Like the sower, the preacher must sow good seed, the Word of God.

Do you wish to grow in grace and be a holy Christian? Then never forget the value of prayer.

A saved soul has many sorrows. They have their share of bereavements, deaths, disappointments , crosses. What shall enable a believer to bear all this? Nothing but the consolation there is in Christ.

There is more to be learned at the foot of the Cross than anywhere else in the world.
