Charles Spurgeon
1834-1892

Oh! men and brethren, what would this heart feel if I could but believe that there were some among you who would go home and pray for a revival. Men whose faith is large enough, and their love fiery enough to lead them from this moment to exercise unceasing intercessions that God would appear among us and do wondrous things here, as in the times of former generations.


The condition of the church may be very accurately gauged by its prayer meetings. So is the prayer meeting a grace-ometer, and from it we may judge of the amount of divine working among a people. If God be near a church, it must pray. And if He be not there, one of the first tokens of His absence will be a slothfulness in prayer.


A church should be a camp of soldiers, not an hospital of invalids. But there is exceedingly much difference between what ought be and what is, and consequently many of God's people are in so sad a state that the very fittest prayer for them is for revival.



That is the very reason why we do not get revival, if we had learned to expect revival we should no doubt obtain it. But we put them on the shelf, as being curiosities of Scripture and history.


To pray is to enter the treasure-house of God and to gather riches out of an inexhaustible storehouse.


He who knows how to overcome with God in prayer has heaven and earth at his disposal.


If you want that splendid power in prayer, you must remain in loving, abiding union with the Lord Jesus Christ.


We know not what prayer can do!



It is one of the temptations of the devil to tell you not to pray when you don’t feel like praying. Pray twice as much then.



Prayer is doubts destroyer, ruin’s remedy, the antidote to all anxieties.


I would rather teach one man to pray than ten men to preach.


Prayer can never be in excess.


Prayer girds human weakness with divine strength, turns human folly into heavenly wisdom, and gives to troubled mortals the peace of God. We know not what prayer can do.


I know of no better thermometer to your spiritual temperature than this, the measure of the intensity of your prayer.
​

Oh! commend me to the man who talks like Jesus, who will not for the world suffer corrupt communications to come out of his mouth. I know what people will say of you if you are like this: they will say you are straight-laced, and that you will not throw much life into company. Others will call you mean-spirited. Oh, my brethren! bold-hearted men are always called mean-spirited by cowards. They will admonish you not to be singular, but you can tell them that it is no folly to be singular, when to be singular is to be right.


I believe the holier a man becomes, the more he mourns over the unholiness which remains in him.
