“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 those who
explain prayer; but I mean those who actually take the time to pray.
They have not time. It must be taken from
something else.
That
something else is important, very important and
pressing, but still, less important and pressing than prayer.
There are
people who put prayer first, and group the other items in life's
schedule around and after prayer. These are the people today who are
doing the most for God in winning souls, in solving problems, in
awakening churches, in supplying both men and money for mission posts,
in keeping fresh and strong their lives far off in sacrificial service
on the foreign field, where the thickest fighting is going on, and in
keeping the old earth sweet a little while longer.”
S.D. Gordon (Emphasis added)
