Prayer Treasures

Prayer of Praise “Forgetting our own difficulties and troubles, let us praise God for an opportunity to live for the glory of His name. Let the fresh blessings of each new day awaken praise in our hearts for these tokens of His loving care. When you open your eyes in the morning, thank God that He has kept you through the night. Thank Him for His peace in your heart. Morning, noon, and night, let gratitude as a sweet perfume ascend to heaven.” —The Ministry of Healing, p. 253.

Prayer of Revival “A revival of true godliness among us is the greatest and most urgent of all our needs. To seek this should be our first work. There must be earnest effort to obtain the blessing of the Lord, not because God is not willing to bestow His blessing upon us, but because we are unprepared to receive it. A revival need be expected only in answer to prayer.” —Selected Messages, bk. 1, p.121.

Pray in Reverence “In prayer we enter the audience chamber of the Most High; and we should come before Him with holy awe.” —Thoughts From the Mount of Blessing, p.106.

Prayer of Thanksgiving “We do not pray any too much, but we are too sparing of giving thanks. If the loving-kindness of God called forth more thanksgiving and praise, we would have far more power in prayer. Pray, pray earnestly and without ceasing, but do not forget to praise.” —Testimonies for the Church, vol. 5, p. 317.

Intercessory Prayer “There are souls who have lost their courage; speak to them, pray for them. There are those who need the bread of life. Read to them from the Word of God. . . . Pray for these [persons], and bring them to Jesus Christ.” —Welfare Ministry, p. 71.

Prayer of Obedience “Those who bring their petitions to God, claiming His promise while they do not comply with the conditions, insult Jehovah. They bring the name of Christ as their authority for the fulfillment of the promise, but they do not those things that would show faith in Christ and love for Him.” —Prayer, p. 67.
