Satan trembles when he sees the weakest saint upon his knees.
William Cowper
If I could hear Christ praying for me in the next room, I would not fear a million enemies. Yet distance makes no difference. He is praying for me.
Robert Murray M'Cheyne
God never gives us discernment in order that we may criticize, but that we may intercede.
Oswald Chambers
A prayerless soul is a Christless soul.
C. H. Spurgeon
God tolerates even our stammering, and pardons our ignorance whenever something inadvertently escapes us -- as, indeed, without this mercy there would be no freedom to pray.
John Calvin
The childish idea that prayer is a handle by which we can take hold of God and obtain whatever we desire, leads to easy disillusionment with both what we had thought to be God and what we had thought to be prayer.
Robert L. Short
The primary object of prayer is to know God better; we and our needs should come second.
God usually answers our prayers so much more according to the measure of His own magnificence, than of our asking, that we do not recognize His benefits to be those for which we sought Him.
Where there is much prayer, there will be much of the Spirit; where there is much of the Spirit, there will be ever-increasing prayer.
Andrew Murray
Prayer does not fit us for the greater work; prayer is the greater work.
Oswald Chambers
