Every Tuesday moi goes to a prayer group which meets at 6:30 a.m. She has been going for several weeks. Maybe she hasn’t gotten better, but she hasn’t gotten worse and that is a good think. It is good to be part of a community and to know the healing power of prayer. Today’s deposit into the ‘Joy Jar’ is the healing power of prayer.
Wherever pragmatism exits in the church, there is always a corresponding de-emphasis on Christ’s sufficiency, God’s sovereignty, biblical integrity, the power of prayer, and Spirit-led ministries. The result is a man-centered ministry that attempts to accomplish divine purposes by superficial programs and human methodology rather than by the Word or the power of the Spirit.
John MacArthur

God punishes us mildly by ignoring our prayers and severely by answering them.

“Give us this day our daily bread” is probably the most perfectly constructed and useful sentence ever set down in the English language.

No one is a firmer believer in the power of prayer than the devil; not that he practices it, but he suffers from it.

Trouble and perplexity drive me to prayer and prayer drives away perplexity and trouble.

Don’t pray when it rains if you don’t pray when the sun shines.
