PRAYER AND PREACHING

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

J.H. Jowett

May God help me, if you cease to pray for me! Let me know the day, and I must cease to preach.

C.H. Spurgeon

Shall I give you yet another reason why you should pray? I have preached my very heart out. I could not say any more than I have said. Will not your prayers accomplish that which my preaching fails to do? Is it not likely that the Church has been putting forth its preaching hand but not its praying hand? Oh dear friends! Let us agonize in prayer.

C.H. Spurgeon
