“[Jesus] prayed briefly when He was in a crowd; He prayed a little longer when He was with His disciples; and He prayed all night when He was alone. Today, many in the ministry tend to reverse that process.”

many of whom are found in the churches.”

“The church should be setting the pace. The church should be taking its proper place of leadership in the nation . . .God help the church to wake up!”
