Edward McKendree Bounds

In doing God's work, there is no substitute for praying. The men of prayer cannot be displaced with other kinds of men. ”

When we say that prayer puts God to work, it is simply to say that man has it in his power by prayer to move God to work in His own way among men, in which way He would not work if prayer was not made. ”

The life of the individual believer, his personal salvation, and personal Christian graces have their being, bloom and fruitage in prayer. ”
