PRAYER - and Holy Living

禱告 - 聖潔生活

We cannot expect to live defectively and pray effectively.

我們不能奢望日子過得沒見證,禱告卻能有功效。

A holy mouth is made by praying.

E. M. Bounds

聖潔嘴唇出自禱告。

Prayer and a holy life are one.  They mutually act and react.  Neither can survive alone.  The absence of the one is the absence of the other.

Edmund Burke

禱告與聖潔生活是同一件事。兩者緊密相輔相成,沒有一個能單獨存在。少了這個,那個也不存在。

If you would have God hear you when you pray, you must hear him when he speaks.

Thomas Brooks

如果你希望當你禱告時上帝聽你,那當祂說話時,你就要聽祂。

Prayer will make a man cease from sin, or sin will entice a man to cease from prayer.

John Bunyan

禱告可以讓一個人不再犯罪,或者,罪慫恿一個人不再禱告。

Prayer, and then start answering your prayer.

Deane Edwards

禱告,然後接著回覆你的禱告。(照你禱告的生活。)

There is nothing that makes us love a man so much as praying for him.

William Law

再沒有比為一個人禱告更能夠使我們愛一個人的了。

There is nothing that tells the truth about us as Christians so much as our prayer life.

D. Martyn Lloyd-Jones

再沒有比我們的禱告生活更能夠貼切說出我們是怎樣的一個基督徒了。

What a man is on his knees before God, that he is - and nothing more.

Roert Murry M'Cheyne

一個人在上帝面前屈膝是甚麼樣子,那就是他的真相 - 沒有別的。

How our prayer avails depends upon what we are and what our life is.

Andrew Murray

我們的禱告是否有功效取決於我們的為人及我們的生活。

The decisive preparation for prayer lies not in the prayer itself, but in the life prior to the prayer.

Handley C. G. Moule

禱告的主要預備不在禱告本身,而在於禱告前的生命。

He who prays as he ought will endeavour to live as he prays.

John Owen

殷切禱告的人會努力活出與禱告一致的生活。

Prayer is conditioned by one thing alone and that is spirituality.

leonard Ravenhill

唯一影響禱告的因素就是靈命。

Every prayer should begin with the confession that our lips are unclean.

Friedrich Tholuck

每一個禱告都應該從承認我們的嘴唇不潔淨開始。

Abandon the secret chamber and the spiritual life will decay.

Isaac Watts

放棄密室禱告生活,靈命隨之凋零。
