Throughout History, the Lord has anointed great men and women to be teachers and preachers, with hearts of fire and messages of truth to match. Here we share some encouraging words about prayer from Godly leaders of our Church history.
"
Come near to the holy men and women of the past and you will soon feel the heat of their desire after God. They mourned for Him, they prayed and wrestled and sought for Him day and night, in season and out, and when they had found Him the finding was all the sweeter for the long seeking." -A. W. Tozer, from The Pursuit of God
You must pray with all your might. That does not mean saying your prayers, or sitting gazing about in church or chapel with eyes wide open while someone else says them for you. It means fervent, effectual, untiring wrestling with God...This kind of prayer be sure the devil and the world and your own indolent, unbelieving nature will oppose. They will pour water on this flame.
