There are two ways of reaching the people. One way is to invite them to come to you, the other way is to go to them.

Prayer is the key that unlocks all the storehouses of God's. . .grace and power.

Prayer that is born of meditation upon the Word of God is the prayer that soars upward most easily to God's listening ears.

We are too busy to pray, and so we are too busy to have power.

God has not changed; and His ear is just as quick to hear the voice of real prayer, and His hand is just as long and strong to save; as it ever was.

We must always bear in mind that the primary purpose of our work is not to get people to join a church, to give up their bad habits, or to do anything other than to accept Jesus Christ as their Savior.

It is clear that there must be difficulties for us in a revelation such as the Bible. If someone were to hand me a book that was as simple to me as the multiplication table and say, “This is the Word of God; in it He has revealed His whole will and wisdom,” I would shake my head and say, “I cannot believe it; that is too easy to be a perfect revelation of infinite wisdom.” There must be, in any complete revelation of God's mind and will and character and being, things hard for the beginner to understand; and the wisest and best of us are but beginners.
