- Macaulay, J. C.
Prayer Motivational Quotes



Best Quotes about Prayer

1.
Most men pray for power, the strength to do things. Few people pray for love, the quality to be someone.
Foster, Robert D.

2.
The time of business does not with me differ from the time of prayer, and in the noise and clatter of my kitchen, while several persons are at the same time calling for different things, I possess God as if I were upon my knees at the blessed sacrament.
Lawrence, Brother

3.
Prayer is the slender nerve that moves the muscle of omnipotence.
Tupper, Martin

4.
Moreover, as for me, far be it from me that I should sin against the Lord by ceasing to pray for you, but I will instruct you in the good and right way. [I Samuel 12:23]
Bible

5.
To be sure, this requires effort and love, a careful cultivation of the spiritual life, and a watchful, honest, active oversight of all one's mental attitudes towards things and people. It is not to be learned by world-flight, running away from things, turning solitary and going apart from the world. Rather, one must learn an inner solitude, where or with whomsoever he may be. He must learn to penetrate things and find God there, to get a strong impression of God firmly fixed on his mind.
Eckhart, Meister

6.
Why is it when we talk to God, we're praying, but when God talks to us, we're schizophrenic?
Tomlin, Lily

7.
Prayer and practice is good rhyme.
Proverb, Scottish

8.
The men who have guided the destiny of the United States have found the strength for their tasks by going to their knees. This private unity of public men and their God is an enduring source of reassurance for the people of America.
Johnson, Lyndon B.

9.
One hour in the execution of justice is worth seventy years of prayer.
Proverb

10.
All that I am or hope to be I owe to my angel mother. I remember my mother's prayers and they have always followed me. They have clung to me all my life.
Lincoln, Abraham

11.
Just pray for a tough hide and a tender heart.
Graham, Ruth

12.
Don't put people down, unless it's on your prayer list.
Michalski, Stan

13.
But if it were I, I would appeal to God; I would lay my cause before Him. He performs wonders that cannot be fathomed, miracles that cannot be counted. [Job 5:8-9]
Bible

14.
You should pray for a sound mind in a sound body.
Juvenal

15.
The fates are not quite obdurate; they have a grim, sardonic way of granting them who supplicate the thing they wanted yesterday.
Montgomery, Roselle Mercier

16.
A single grateful thought toward heaven is the most perfect prayer.
Lessing, Gotthold

17.
The wish to pray is a prayer in itself. God can ask no more than that of us.
Bernanos, Georges

18.
Whatsoever we beg of God, let us also work for it.
Taylor, Jeremy

19.
We turn to God for help when our foundations are shaking, only to learn that it is God who is shaking them.
West, Charles C.

20.
Gratitude bestows reverence, allowing us to encounter everyday epiphanies, those transcendent moments of awe that change forever how we experience life and the world.
Milton, John

21.
There is no greater distance than that between a man in prayer and God.
Illich, Ivan

22.
Prayer should be short, without giving God Almighty reasons why he should grant this, or that; he knows best what is good for us.
Selden, John

23.
Practical prayer is harder on the soles of your shoes than on the knees of your trousers.
O'Malley, Austin

24.
Pray as though everything depended on God. Work as though everything depended on you.
Augustine, St.

25.
God answers sharp and sudden on some prayers and thrust the thing we have prayed for in our face, like a gauntlet with a gift in it.
Browning, Elizabeth Barrett

26.
A simple grateful thought turned heavenwards is the most perfect prayer.
Lessing, Doris

27.
Practice in life whatever you pray for and God will give it to you more abundantly.
Pusey, Edward Bouverie

28.
It is good to pray for the repair of mistakes, but praying earlier would keep us from making so many. When puzzled, go to prayer and listen.
Macaulay, J. C.

29.
Spiritual favors are not always to be looked for, and not always to be relied on.
Barr, Amelia E.

30.
If I told you what it takes to reach the highest high you'd laugh and say nothing that simple, but you've been told many times before messiah's point you to the door though no one's got the guts to leave the temple.
Townsend, Peter

31.
Pray that you will never have to bear all that you are able to endure.
Proverb, Jewish

32.
No one can pray well, but those who live well.
Proverb

33.
Pray for what you want, but work for what you need.

34.
If I regard wickedness in my heart the Lord will not hear. [Psalms 66:18]
Bible

35.
We are all weak, finite, simple human beings, standing in the need of prayer. None need it so much as those who think they are strong, those who know it not, but are deluded by self-sufficiency.
Phillips, Harold C.

36.
Prayer is a passport to heaven. Your communication with God.

37.
Prayer is not asking. It is a longing of the soul. It is daily admission of one's weakness. It is better in prayer to have a heart without words than words without a heart.
Gandhi, Mahatma

38.
Pray without ceasing. In everything give thanks. [I Thessalonians]
Bible

39.
To pray is to pay attention to something or someone other than oneself. Whenever a man so concentrates his attention -- on a landscape, a poem, a geometrical problem, an idol, or the True God -- that he completely forgets his own ego and desires, he is praying. The primary task of the schoolteacher is to teach children, in a secular context, the technique of prayer.
Auden, W. H.

40.
Our prayers should be for blessings in general, for God knows best what is good for us.
Socrates

41.
Work as if you were to live a hundred years. Pray as if you were to die tomorrow.
Franklin, Benjamin

42.
There are thoughts which are prayers. There are moments when, whatever the posture of the body, the soul is on its knees.
Hugo, Victor

43.
Father in Heaven! When the thought of thee wakes in our hearts let it not awaken like a frightened bird that flies about in dismay, but like a child waking from its sleep with a heavenly smile.
Kierkegaard, SĀ°ren

44.
More than once I had seen a noble who had gotten his enemy at a disadvantage stop to pray before cutting his throat.
Twain, Mark

45.
We know little of the things for which we pray.
Chaucer, Geoffrey

46.
Our thanks to God should always precede our requests.

47.
Your cravings as a human animal do not become a prayer just because it is God whom you ask to attend to them.
Hammarskjold, Dag

48.
Common people do not pray; they only beg.
Shaw, George Bernard

49.
Prayer is talking with God and telling Him you love Him, conversing with God about all the things that are important in life, both large and small, and being assured that He is listening.
Strait, C. Neil

50.
My prayer to God is a very short one: O Lord, make my enemies look ridiculous! God has granted it.
Voltaire
