Kindle Notes & Highlights
Preaching of the type mentioned affects men; prayer affects God. Preaching affects time; prayer affects eternity.
The tragedy of this late hour is that we have too many dead men in the pulpits giving out too many dead sermons to too many dead people.
Unction cannot be learned, only earned—by prayer. Unction is God’s knighthood for the soldier-preacher who has wrestled in prayer and gained the victory. Victory is not won in the pulpit by firing intellectual bullets or wisecracks, but in the prayer closet; it is won or lost before the preacher’s foot enters the pulpit.
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 two prerequisites to successful Christian living are vision and passion, both of which are born in and maintained by prayer.
to be much for God, we must be much with God.
A sinning man will stop praying, and a praying man will stop sinning.
because the Church has lost Holy Ghost fire, men go to hell-fire!
There are three persons living in each of us: the one we think we are, the one other people think we are, and the one God knows we are.
