Our spiritual immutarity never shows up more than in our lack of praying, be it alone or in a church prayer meeting. Let 20% of the chior members fail to turn up for rehearsal and the chior master is offended. Let 20% of the church members turn up for a prayer meeting, and the pastor is elated.

The understanding soul prays; the praying soul gets understanding.

Could a mariner sit idle if he heard the drowning cry? Could a doctor sit in comfort and just let his patients die? Could a fireman sit idle, let men burn and give no hand? Can you sit at ease in Zion with the world around you damned?

A man may study because his brain is hungry for knowledge, even Bible knowledge. But he prays because his soul is hungry for God.

Get rid of this bunkum about the 'carnal Christian'. Forget it! If you're carnal, you're not saved.

Men of prayer must be men of steel, for they will be assaulted by Satan even before they attempt to assault his kingdom.

Christianity is Christ plus nothing!
