Faith, and hope, and patience and all the strong, beautiful, vital forces of piety are withered and dead in a prayerless life. The life of the individual believer, his personal salvation, and personal Christian graces have their being, bloom, and fruitage in prayer.

~~~~~~~

Faithful prayer always implies correlative exertion; and no man can ask honestly and hopefully to be delivered from temptation, unless he has himself honestly and firmly determined to do the best he can to keep out of it.

~~~~~~~

Far as distress the soul can wound ‘Tis pain in each degree; Bliss goes but to a certain bound, Beyond is agony. (A Prayer for Indifference)

~~~~~~~

Father in Heaven! When the thought of thee wakes in our hearts let it not awaken like a frightened bird that flies about in dismay, but like a child waking from its sleep with a heavenly smile.

~~~~~~~

Father of All! in every age, In every clime ador’d, By saint, by savage, and by sage, Jehovah, Jove, or Lord!

~~~~~~~

Father of Light and Life! Thou Good Supreme! O teach me what is good! teach me Thyself! Save me from folly, vanity and vice, From every low pursuit: and feed my soul With knowledge, conscious peace, and virtue pure; Sacred, substantial, never-fading bliss.

~~~~~~~

Father of Light! great God of Heaven! Hear’st thou the accents of despair? Can guilt like man’s be e’er forgiven? Can vice atone for crimes by prayer?

~~~~~~~

Father! no prophet’s laws I seek,– Thy laws in Nature’s works appear;– I own myself corrupt and weak, Yet will I pray, for thou wilt hear.

~~~~~~~

Fear of death drives the wretched to prayer. [Lat., In vota miseros ultimus cogit timor.]

~~~~~~~

For earthly blessings, moderate be thy prayer, and qualified; for light, for strength, for grace, unbounded thy petition.

~~~~~~~

For prayer is not a ritual; it is the soul’s inherent response to a relationship with a loving Father.

~~~~~~~

For spiritual blessings, let our prayers be importunate, perpetual and persevering; for temporal blessings, let them be general, short, conditional and modest.

~~~~~~~

For the believer, there is no question; for the non-believer, there is no answer.

~~~~~~~

For the most part, we should pray rather in aspiration than petition, rather by hoping than requesting; in which spirit also we may breathe a devout wish for a blessing on others upon occasions when it might be presumptuous to beg it.

~~~~~~~

For we know not what we should pray for.

~~~~~~~

Fountain of mercy! whose pervading eye Can look within and read what passes there, Accept my thoughts for thanks; I have no words. My soul o’erfraught with gratitude, rejects The aid of language–Lord!–behold my heart.

~~~~~~~

Four things let us ever keep in mind: God hears prayer, God heeds prayer, God answers prayer, and God delivers by prayer.- E. M. Bounds

~~~~~~~

Four things which are not in thy treasury, I lay before thee, Lord, with this petition:– My nothingness, my wants, My sins, and my contrition.

~~~~~~~

From her nest in the holm-oak tree the Nightingale heard him.

~~~~~~~

From the violence and rule of passion, from a servile will, and a commanding lust, from pride and vanity, from false opinion and ignorant confidence; from improvidence and prodigality, from envy and the spirit of slander; from sensuality, from presumption and from despair; from a state of temptation and a hardened spirit; from delaying of repentance and persevering in sin; from unthankfulness and irreligion, and from seducing others; from all infatuation of soul, folly and madness; from willfulness, self-love and vain ambition; from a vicious life and an unprovided death, good Lord, deliver us.
