Prayer
.
My prayer is that what we have gone through [world war one] will startle the world into some new realization of the sanctity of life, animal as well as human.
The constant habit of perusing devout books is so indispensable, that it has been termed the oil of the lamp of prayer. too much reading, however, and too little meditation, may produce the effect of a lamp inverted; which is extinguished by the very excess of that ailment, whose property is to feed it.
Did not god sometimes withhold in mercy what we ask, we should be ruined at our own request.
Prayer is not eloquence but earnestness.
What ascends up in prayer descends to us again in blessings. it is like the rain which just now fell, and which had been drawn up from the ground in vapors to the clouds before it descended from them to the earth in that refreshing shower.
Prayer is not eloquence, but earnestness; not the definition of helplessness, but the feeling of it; not figures of speech, but earnestness of soul.
Many christians backslide...they are unable to stand against the temptations of the world, or of their old nature. they strive to do their best to fight against sin, and to serve god, but they have no strength. they have never really grasped the secret: the lord jesus will every day from heaven continue his work in me. but on one condition-the soul must give him time each day to impart his love and his grace. time alone with the lord jesus each day is the indispensable condition of growth and power.
Shut the world out, withdraw from all worldly thoughts and occupations, and shut yourself in alone with god, to pray to him in secret. let this be your chief object in prayer, to realize the presence of your heavenly father.
Learn to worship god as the god who does wonders, who wishes to prove in you that he can do something supernatural and divine.
I am sure that there are many christians who will confess that their experience has been very much like my own-that we had long known the lord without realizing that meekness and lowliness of heart should be the distinguishing feature of the disciple, as they were of the master. such humility is not a thing that will come on its own. it must be made the object of special desire, prayer, faith and practice.
If the spiritual life be healthy, under the full power of the holy spirit, praying without ceasing will be natural.
The coming revival must begin with a great revival of prayer. it is in the closet, with the door shut, that the sound of abundance of rain will first be heard. an increase of secret prayer with ministers will be the sure harbinger of blessing.
