Pray, and let God worry.
To be a Christian without prayer is no more possible than to be alive without breathing.
The Bible is alive, it speaks to me; it has feet, it runs after me; it has hands, it lays hold of me.
As is the business of tailors to make clothes and cobblers to make shoes, so it is the business of Christians to pray.
To gather with God's people in united adoration of the Father is as necessary to the Christian life as prayer.
The less I pray, the harder it gets; the more I pray, the better it goes.
If I fail to spend two hours in prayer each morning, the devil gets the victory through the day. I have so much business I cannot get on without spending three hours daily in prayer.
I have so much to do that I shall spend the first three hours in prayer.
No one can believe how powerful prayer is and what it can effect, except those who have learned it by experience. Whenever I have prayed earnestly, I have been heard and have obtained more than I prayed for. God sometimes delays, but He always comes.
Prayer is a strong wall and fortress of the church; it is a goodly Christian weapon.
To pray well is the better half of study.
Grant that I may not pray alone with the mouth; help me that I may pray from the depths of my heart.
Prayer is climbing up into the heart of God.
God wants us to pray, and he wants to hear our prayers-not because we are worthy, but because he is merciful.
All who call on God in true faith, earnestly from the heart, will certainly be heard, and will receive what they have asked and desired.
We cannot attain to the understanding of Scripture either by study or by the intellect. Your first duty is to begin by prayer. Entreat the Lord to grant you, of His great mercy, the true understanding of His Word. There is no other interpreter of the Word of God than the Author of this Word, as He Himself has said, "They shall be all taught of God" (John 6:45). Hope for nothing from your own labors, from your own understanding: trust solely in God, and in the influence of His Spirit. Believe this on the word of a man who has experience.
If I should neglect prayer but a single day, I should lose a great deal of the fire of faith.
None can believe how powerful prayer is, and what it is able to effect, but those who have learned it by experience.
The fewer the words, the better the prayer.
In human affairs we accomplish everything through prayer. What has been properly arranged we keep in order, what has gone amiss we change and improve, what cannot be changed and improved we bear, overcoming all the trouble and sustaining all the good by prayer. Against force there is no help but prayer alone.
This is the good and happy news, that Christ has paid for our sin, and through His suffering has redeemed us from eternal death. It is His kingdom and His ministry, to preach the Gospel to the poor; that is His purpose. For to the great and holy He cannot come. They do not wish to be counted sinners, and therefore do not need His Gospel.
Prayer, study, and suffering make a pastor.
I cannot neglect prayer for a single day.
It is a good thing to let prayer be the first business in the morning and the last in the evening. Guard yourself against such false and deceitful thoughts that keep whispering, "Wait a while. In an hour or so I will pray. I must first finish this or that." Thinking such thoughts we get away from prayer into other things that will hold us and involve us till the prayer of the day comes to naught.
The believing man hath the Holy Ghost; and where the Holy Ghost dwelleth, He will not suffer a man to be idle, butstirreth him up to all exercises of piety and godliness, and of true religion, to the love of God, to the patient suffering of afflictions, to prayer, to thanksgiving, and the exercise of charity towards all men.
