O prayer! Prayer! It brings and keeps God and man together. It raises man up to God, and brings God down to man.
— George Whitefield (1714-1770)

Our Prayers Do Not Die
Though, we die, our prayers do not die with us. They outlive us, and those we leave behind us in the world may reap the benefit of them when we are turned to dust.

The Power of Prayer
Prayer as it comes from the saint is weak and languid; but when the arrow of a saint’s prayer is put into the bow of Christ’s intercession — it pierces the throne of grace!
— Thomas Watson (c. 1620-1686)

Sighs, Groans, and Tears
Certainly, the very soul of prayer lies in the pouring out of a man’s soul before the Lord, though it be but in sighs, groans, and tears. One sign and groan from a broken heart is better pleasing to God than all human eloquence.

Prayer from the Heart
It is better to have affections without expressions than expressions without affection. God looks more to the desires of the heart then the words of the mouth.
