 Prayer is the supreme activity of all that is noblest in our personality, and the essential nature of prayer is faith. Author: Oswald Chambers |
| Prayer is not an exercise, it is the life. Author: Oswald Chambers |
| Prayer is not logical, it is a mysterious moral working of the Holy Spirit. Author: Oswald Chambers |
| Prayer is the evidence that I am spiritually concentrated on God. Author: Oswald Chambers |
| Prayer is God's answer to our poverty, not a power we exercise to obtain an answer. Author: Oswald Chambers |
| Never say you will pray about a thing; pray about it. Author: Oswald Chambers |

| We lean to our own understanding, or we bank on service and do away with prayer, and consequently by succeeding in the external we fail in the eternal, because in the eternal we succeed only by prevailing prayer. Author: Oswald Chambers |
| Can Jesus Christ see the agony of His soul in us? He can't unless we are so closely identified with Him that we have His view concerning the people for whom we pray. May we learn to intercede so wholeheartedly that Jesus Christ will be completely and overwhelmingly satisfied with us as intercessors. Author: Oswald Chambers |
| The inattentive, slovenly way we drift into the presence of God is an indication that we are not bothering to think about Him. Whenever our Lord spoke of prayer, He said, "Ask." It is impossible to ask if you do not concentrate. Author: Oswald Chambers |
| It is impossible to live the life of a disciple without definite times of secret prayer. You will find that the place to enter in is in your business, as you walk along the streets, in the ordinary ways of life, when no one dreams you are praying, and the reward comes openly, a revival here, a blessing there. Author: Oswald Chambers |
| Prayer is simple, prayer is supernatural, and to anyone not related to our Lord Jesus Christ, prayer is apt to look stupid. Author: Oswald Chambers |
| One of the most subtle burdens God ever puts on us as saints is this burden of discernment concerning other souls. He reveals things in order that we may take the burden of these souls before Him and form the mind of Christ about them. It is not that we bring God into touch with our minds, but that we rouse ourselves until God is able to convey His mind to us about the one for whom we intercede. Author: Oswald Chambers |
