Text Quotes
Apostolic preaching cannot be carried on unless there be apostolic prayer  (Edward McKendree Bounds Quotes) The conditions of praying are the conditions of righteousness, holiness, and salvation  (Edward McKendree Bounds Quotes) The lazy man does not, will not, cannot pray, for prayer demands energy  (Edward McKendree Bounds Quotes) Few persons are made of such strong fiber that they will make a costly outlay when surface work will pass as well in the market  (Edward McKendree Bounds Quotes) Prayer is the highest intelligence, the profoundest wisdom, the most vital, the most joyous, the most efficacious, the most powerful of all vocations  (Edward McKendree Bounds Quotes) If the devil can get the church to withdraw from prayer by believing reasonable excuses, the church is under his dominion  (Edward McKendree Bounds Quotes) No learning can make up for the failure to pray. No earnestness, no diligence, no study, no gifts will supply its lack  (Edward McKendree Bounds Quotes) By prayer, the ability is secured to feel the law of love, to speak according to the law of love, and to do everything in harmony with the law of love  (Edward McKendree Bounds Quotes) Bible revelations are not against reason but above reason, for the uses of faith, mans highest faculty  (Edward McKendree Bounds Quotes) Preaching is not the performance of an hour. It is the outflow of a life. It takes twenty years to make a sermon because it takes twenty years to make the man. The true sermon is a thing of life. The sermon grows because the man grows  (Edward McKendree Bounds Quotes) Praying which does not result in pure conduct is a delusion. We have missed the whole office and virtue of praying if it does not rectify conduct. It is in the very nature of things that we must quit praying, or quit bad conduct  (Edward McKendree Bounds Quotes) Our praying, to be strong, must be buttressed by holy living. The life of faith perfects the prayer of faith  (Edward McKendree Bounds Quotes) Prayer, like faith, obtains promises, enlarges their operation, and adds to the measure of their results  (Edward McKendree Bounds Quotes) Prayer, in one phase of its operation, is a disinfectant and a preventive. It purifies the air; it destroys the contagion of evil  (Edward McKendree Bounds Quotes) A man can pray better because of the prayers of the past; a man can live holier because of the prayers of the past; the man of many and acceptable prayers has done the truest and greatest service to the incoming generation  (Edward McKendree Bounds Quotes) When trust is perfect and there is no doubt, prayer is simply the outstretched hand ready to receive  (Edward McKendree Bounds Quotes) Praying gives sense, brings wisdom, and broadens and strengthens the mind. The prayer closet is a perfect schoolteacher and schoolhouse for the preacher. Thought is not only brightened and clarified in prayer, but thought is born in prayer  (Edward McKendree Bounds Quotes) A holy life does not live in the closet, but it cannot live without the closet  (Edward McKendree Bounds Quotes) Public prayers are of little worth unless they are founded on or followed up by private praying  (Edward McKendree Bounds Quotes) The little estimate we put on prayer is evidence from the little time we give to it  (Edward McKendree Bounds Quotes) It is necessary to iterate and reiterate that prayer, as a mere habit, as a performance gone through by routine or in a professional way, is a dead and rotten thing  (Edward McKendree Bounds Quotes) Prayer should not be regarded as a duty which must be performed, but rather as a privilege to be enjoyed, a rare delight that is always revealing some new beauty  (Edward McKendree Bounds Quotes) Little praying is a kind of make believe, a salve for the conscience, a farce and a delusion  (Edward McKendree Bounds Quotes) Our praying, however, needs to be pressed and pursued with an energy that never tires, a persistency which will not be denied, and a courage which never fails  (Edward McKendree Bounds Quotes) Prayer is a trade to be learned. We must be apprentices and serve our time at it. Painstaking care, much thought, practice and labour are required to be a skillful tradesman in praying. Practice in this, as well as in all other trades, makes perfect  (Edward McKendree Bounds Quotes) No erudition, no purity of diction, no width of mental outlook, no flowers of eloquence, no grace of person can atone for lack of fire. Prayer ascends by fire. Flame gives prayer access as well as wings, acceptance as well as energy. There is no incense without fire; no prayer without flame  (Edward McKendree Bounds Quotes)
