You can do more than pray after you have prayed; but you can never do more than pray until you have prayed. — A.J. Gordon
Prayer
God glorified in us
God is most glorified in us when we are most satisfied in Him. -John Piper
Prayer purpose
We look upon prayer simply as a means of getting things for ourselves, but the biblical purpose of prayer is that we may get to know God Himself. — Oswald Chambers
Experience his care
Jesus tends to his people individually. He personally sees to our needs. We all receive Jesus’ touch. We experience his care. — Max Lucado
Disturb us Lord
Disturb us, Lord, when we are too well pleased with ourselves, when our dreams have come true because we have dreamed too little, when we arrive safely because we sailed too close to the shore. — Francis Drake
Prayer is beyond highest activity
Prayer is beyond any question the highest activity of the human soul. Man is at his greatest and highest when upon his knees he comes face to face with God. — Martyn Lloyd-Jones
