Entertainment is the devil's substitute for joy. The more joy you have in the Lord the less entertainment you need.
Leonard RavenhillSome women will spend thirty minutes to an hour preparing for church externally (putting on special clothes and makeup, etc.). What would happen if we all spent the same amount of time preparing internally for churchโwith prayer and meditation?
Leonard RavenhillBooks on prayer are good, but not good enough. As books on cooking are good but hopeless unless there is food to work on, so with prayer. One can read a library of prayer books and not be one whit more powerful in prayer. We must learn to pray, and we must pray to learn to pray.
