12 Rounds with God

Two More Thoughts on Prayer


"The battle of prayer is against two things in the earthlies: wandering thoughts, and lack of intimacy with God's character as revealed in His word. Neither can be cured at once, but they can be cured by discipline."  -  Oswald Chambers

"Praying Hard is going twelve rounds with God.  A heavyweight prayer bout with God Almighty can be excruciating and exhausting, but that is how some of the greatest prayer victories are won.  Praying hard is more than words; its blood, sweat, and tears.  
Praying hard is two-dimensional: Praying like it depends on God, and working like it depends on you.  It's praying until God Answers, no matter how long it takes. Praying with a holy desperation."  -  Mark Batterson
