It is in the field of prayer that life's critical battles are lost or won. We must conquer all our circumstances there. We must first of all bring them there. We must survey them there. We must master them there. In prayer we bring our spiritual enemies into the Presence of God and we fight them there. Have you tried that? Or have you been satisfied to meet and fight your foes in the open spaces of the world?
John Henry JowettAll vital praying makes a drain on a man's vitality. True intercession is a sacrifice, a bleeding sacrifice.
John Henry JowettLet us sing even when we do not feel like it, for in this way we give wings to heavy feet and turn weariness into strength.
John Henry JowettIt is possible to evade a multitude of sorrows by the cultivation of an insignificant life.
