Subject: the need for prayer |
Bible Note: The Cinderella of the church of today is prayer. This handmaid of the Lord is unloved and unwooed because she is not dripping with the pearls of intellectualism, nor glamorous with the silks of philosophy; neither is she enchanting with the tiara of psychology. She wears the homespuns of sincerity and humility and so is not afraid to kneel. No man is greater than his prayer life. The pastor who is not praying is playing; the people who are not praying are straying. The pulpit can be the shop window to display one’s talents; the prayer closet allows no showing off. Leonard Ravenhill When God intends great mercy for hispeople, the first thing He does is set them a-praying Matthew Henry The call of the Cross, therefore, isto enter into this passion of Christ. We must have upon us the print of the nails. Gordon Watt |
