Principles of PRAYER
(Continued)
and begged Him Lord teach is to pray. They knew that the power of effective
prayer can move mountains. They knew that it flowed out of a relationship with
God. When Jesus taught them to pray it was unlike the hollow sounding mantras that were coming out of the mouths of most of the religious leaders. They
needed an audience. With Jesus he, many times, spent the whole night at the top
of a mountain to pray alone to His father. That was so alien to religious thinking.
Praying with no audience? Praying because we wanted not because we had to?
Suzette Hattingh shared so many principles that the Holy Spirit and the Word of
God taught her. She also shared how that, when working with Evangelist
Reinhard Bonnke, she would not import prayer warriors. Instead she birthed
them. She trained people on site the principles of prayer. In that way not only
were new Believers left behind after each meeting but prayer warriors were in
place trained in Gods plan for prayer.
I have so much to do that I spend several hours in prayer before I am able to do it.
John Wesley
I have been driven many times to my knees by the overwhelming conviction that I had absolutely no other place to
go.
Abraham Lincoln
Is prayer your steering wheel or your spare tire?
Corrie Ten Boom
When I pray, coincidences happen, and when I don't pray,
they don't.
William Temple
Pray, and let God worry.
At the end of each programme of Principles of Prayer we are asking each guest
to pray for our viewers. Many are in nations where it is illegal or uncomfortable
to be a Believer. In others it is so comfortable and free to worship and pray that
people take it for granted. This is an even more threatening state of affairs.
More and more people are realising that it takes more faith not to believe in
prayer, not to believe in God, not to believe in creation, not to believe in an
intelligently designed universe than it does to believe. One of the leading opponents of the Bible and creation was pushed on the matter of intelligent design.
With an overwhelming array of evidence from leading scientific scholars he finally
raised a cheeky white flag of defeat. Yes, I believe that intelligent creatures from outer space - designed the creation around us. But I KNOW that they,
themselves, were not intelligently designed. It likes the Sunday Scholl trained
boy who was told by his teacher that the children of Israel crossed the Red Sea in
a shallow spot of it. The boys faith-filled reply? Why teacher, thats an even
more amazing miracle because it means that Pharaoh's army all drowned in
shallow water!
William Temple replied to the critics When I pray, coincidences happen.
When I dont pray they dont.
Martin Luther
Men may spurn our appeals, reject our message, oppose our
arguments, despise our persons; but they are helpless
against our prayers.
J. Sidlow Baxter
Notice, we never pray for folks we gossip about, and we never gossip about the folk for whom we pray! For prayer is a
great deterrent.
Leonard Ravenhill
In prayer it is better to have a heart without words than words
without a heart.
John Bunyan
If you can't pray a door open, don't pry it open. Lyell Rader
The Church is looking for better methods; God is looking for
better men. The Holy Ghost does not flow through methods,
but through men. He does not come on machinery, but on
men. He does not anoint plans, but menMen of prayer."
E. M. Bounds
