Revival and PRAYER QUOTES

-From- http://www.sermonindex.net


"If sinners be damned, at least let them leap to Hell over our
bodies. If they will perish, let them perish with our arms about their
knees. Let no one go there unwarned and unprayed for."
-Charles Spurgeon

"The new wine of revival will shatter the old wineskins of formality."
-Leonard Ravenhill

"We need a baptism of clear seeing. We desperately need seers
who can see through the mist--Christian leaders with prophetic
vision. Unless they come soon it will be too late for this generation.
And if they do come we will no doubt crucify a few of them in the
name of our worldly orthodoxy." -A.W. Tozer

"It doesn't take an extraordinary person - just devotion to our
extraordinary God - to live an extraordinary life." -Unknown.

"The shortest distance between a problem and the solution is the
distance between your knees and the floor." -Anonymous

"In the Irish Revival of 1859, people became so weak that they
could not get back to their homes. Men and women would fall by
the wayside and would be found hours later pleading with God to
save their souls. They felt that they were slipping into hell and
that nothing else in life mattered but to get right with God... To
them eternity meant everything. Nothing else was of any
consequence. They felt that if God did not have mercy on them
and save them, they were doomed for all time to come."
-Oswald J. Smith

"In every generation the number of the righteous is small. Be sure
you are among them." -A. W. Tozer

"We fear men so much, because we fear God so little. One fear
cures another." -William Gurnall

"Making heaven on earth is our business." -William Booth

"If your faith can't be tested, it can't be trusted." - Unknown.

"If we look carefully within ourselves, we shall find that there are
certain limits beyond which we refuse to go in offering ourselves
to God. We hover around these reservations, making believe not
to see them, for fear of self-reproach. The more we shrink from
giving up any such reserved point, the more certain it is that it
needs to be given up. If we were not fast bound by it, we should
not make so many efforts to persuade ourselves that we are free."
-François Fénelon (1651-1715), Spiritual Letters

"Is what you're living for worth Christ dying for?"
- Epitaph of Leonard Ravenhill

"Beware of prayerless tears and beware of tearless prayers."
- Unknown

"Pray hardest when it is hardest to pray."
- Charles H. Brent

"Your character is who you are when no one but God is watching
you." - Unknown

"Could a mariner sit idle if he heard the drowning cry?
Could a doctor sit in comfort and just let his patients die?
Could a fireman sit idle, let men burn and give no hand?
Can you sit at ease in Zion with the world around you DAMNED?"
- Leonard Ravenhill

"And When I am dying, how happy I'll be,
If the lamp of my life has been burned out for Thee."
-Author Unknown

“Preach abroad….It is the cooping yourselves up in rooms that
has dampened the work of God, which never was and never will be
carried out to any purpose without going into the highways and
hedges and compelling men and women to come in.”
- Jonathan Edwards

"No sort of defense is needed for preaching outdoors, but it would
take a very strong argument to prove that a man who has never
preached beyond the walls of his meetinghouse has done his duty.
A defense is required for services within buildings rather than for
worship outside of them.” - William Booth
