'We may call prayerlessness neglect, or lack of spiritual appetite, or loss of vision. But that which matters is what God calls it. In 1 Samuel 12:23, God calls prayerlessness sin: God forbid that I should sin against the Lord in ceasing to pray for you.'
'The man behind the pulpit must have a prayer life. With prayer behind him he can carry all before him.'
'Prayer is taxing. Prayer is exacting. Prayer means enduring. Prayer means denying self, a daily dying by choice.'
'The early Church prayed; every revival church has prayed; every participant in revival prayer has known travail. Though there are some tearful intercessors behind the scenes, I grant you that to our modern Christianity, praying is foreign.'
'Satan fears prayer and offsets it at every angle.'
'Prayer is, I think, the language of heaven.'
'Words are not prayer because we utter them on our knees, nor because we say them in the pulpit, nor yet because they are breathed within the confines of a church.'
'The place where the Christian stops to for refuel is prayer.'
