S.D. Gordon –
“The greatest thing anyone can do for God and for man is pray. It is not the only thing; but it is the chief thing.
The great people of the earth today are the people who pray. I do not mean those who talk about prayer; nor those
who say they believe in prayer; nor yet those who can explain about prayer; but I mean those people who take time to pray.”
Christian Prayer –
Definition – “Christian prayer is a reverent, humble, and confident approach to the God of Scripture by
a Spirit-empowered follower of Jesus Christ. Such approach may be in word or thought usually involving beseeching, petition,
intercession, confession, submission, commitment, praise, thanksgiving, adoration, or worship.”
Goal: “Pray until our praying and living are totally integrated.”
