I believe it will only be known on the last day how much has been accomplished in overseas missions by the prayers of earnest believers at home.
One of the great uses of Twitter and Facebook will be to prove at the Last Day that prayerlessness was not from lack of time.
Talking to men for God is a great thing, but talking to God for men is greater still.
We can reach our world, if we will. The greatest lack today is not people or funds. The greatest need is prayer.
I have felt the impact of your prayer in these past weeks. I am certain now that nothing has had a more powerful infl uence on this life of mine than your prayers.
Prayer is the mighty engine that is to move the missionary work.
Do not have your concert first, and then tune your instrument afterwards. Begin the day with the Word of God and prayer, and get first of all into harmony with Him.
The history of missions is the history of answered prayer. From Pentecost to the Haystack meeting in New England and from the days when Robert Morrison landed in China to the martyrdom of John and Betty Stam, prayer has been the source of power and the secret of spiritual triumph.
The spirit of Christ is the spirit of missions. The nearer we get to Him, the more intensely missionary we become.
If God wills the evangelization of the world, and you refuse to support missions, then you are opposed to the will of God.
We talk of the second coming, half the world has never heard of the first.
The history of missions is the history of answered prayer.
Brother, if you would enter that Province, you must go forward on your knees.
The greatest thing anyone can do for God or man is pray.
You have one business on earth – to save souls.
The Christian is not obedient unless he is doing all in his power to send the Gospel to the heathen world.

God isn't looking for people of great faith, but for individuals ready to follow Him
Bear up the hands that hang down, by faith and prayer; support the tottering knees. Have you any days of fasting and prayer? Storm the throne of grace and persevere therein, and mercy will come down.
God's work done in God's way will never lack God's supply.
The concern for world evangelization is not something tacked on to a man's personal Christianity, which he may take or leave as he chooses. It is rooted in the character of the God who has come to us in Christ Jesus. Thus, it can never be the province of a few enthusiasts, a sideline or a specialty of those who happen to have a bent that way. It is the distinctive mark of being a Christian.
I had utterly abandoned myself to Him. Could any choice be as wonderful as His will? Could any place be safer than the center of His will? Did not He assure me by His very presence that His thoughts toward us are good, and not evil? Death to my own plans and desires was almost deliriously delightful. Everything was laid at His nail-scarred feet, life or death, health or illness, appreciation by others or misunderstanding, success or failure as measured by human standards. Only He himself mattered.
'Go ye' is as much a part of Christ's Gospel as 'Come unto Me.'
