Prayer Quotes
-
Yes, yes, I'm coming. Right up the top of the house. One moment I'll linger. How the mud goes round in the mind-what a swirl these monsters leave, the waters rocking, the weeds waving and green here, black there, striking to the sand, till by degrees the atoms reassemble, the deposit sifts itself, and a gain through the eyes one sees clear and still, and there comes to the lips some prayer for the departed, some obsequy for the souls of those one nods to, the one never meets again.
Virginia Woolf
-
God loves it when His children pray BIG, BOLD PRAYERS. Don't be afraid to ask your Father for anything!
Christine Caine
-
Passion produced out of prayer and praise pushes you to extremes.
Carl Lentz
-
The airy sky has taken its place leaning against the wall. It is like a prayer to what is empty And what is empty turns its face to us and whispers: 'I am not empty, I am open'.
Tomas Transtromer
-
Prayer is the highest intelligence, the profoundest wisdom, the most vital, the most joyous, the most efficacious, the most powerful of all vocations.
Edward McKendree Bounds
-
Prayer brings to us blessings which we need, and which only God can give, and which prayer can alone convey to us...Prayer is simply asking God to do for us what he has promised us he will do if we ask him.
Gerhard Tersteegen
-

Adrian Rogers
-
The prayer does call for serious, serious punishment on people. But I didn't call for that, God did.
Wiley Drake
-
Prayer is the most tangible expression of trust in God. If we would trust God for our persecuted brothers and sisters in other countries, we must be diligent in prayer for their rulers. If we would trust God when decisions of government in our own country go against our best interests, we must pray for His working in the hearts of those officials and legislators who make those decisions. The truth that the king's heart is in the hand of the Lord is meant to be a stimulus to prayer, not a stimulus to a fatalistic attitude.
Jerry Bridges
-
Jesus removes all that is superfluous & unclean from our prayers, & adds His perfection, beauty & fragrance to them!
Joseph Prince
-
We need to find God, and he cannot be found in noises and restlessness. God is the friend of silence. See how nature-trees, flowers, grass-grow in silence. Is not our mission to give God to those we walk with? Not a dead God, but a living, loving God. The more we receive in silent prayer, the more we can give in active life. We need silence to be able to touch souls. The essential thing is not what we say, but what God says to us and through us. Words that don't give the light of Christ increase the darkness.
Mother Teresa
-
The same group of New York pseudo-intellectuals who've put down prayer are the same ones who put down L.A.
Marianne Williamson
-

Prayer has not been a part of my life in the sense that truth has been.
Mahatma Gandhi
