Prayer is not a preparation for work, it IS work. Prayer is not a preparation for the battle, it IS the battle. Prayer is two-fold: definite asking and definite waiting to receive.

Make converts to your own thoughts and opinions.

Keep your soul fit to manifest the life of the Son of God. Never live on memories; let the word of God be always living and active in you.

Complete weakness and dependence will always be the occasion for the Spirit of God to manifest His power.

The prayer of the saints is never self-important, but always God-important.
