There is no greater distance than that between a man in prayer and God.
Sentiment: NEGATIVE
Jesus is the inspiration for anyone to go the distance.
Men who pray are, in reality, the only religious men, and it takes a full-measured man to pray.
He who lives in our mind is near though he may actually be far away; but he who is not in our heart is far though he may really be nearby.
Men of prayer, before anything else, are indispensable to the furtherance of the kingdom of God on earth. No other sort will fit in the scheme or do the deed. Men, great and influential in other things but small in prayer, cannot do the work Almighty God has set out for His Church to do in this, His world.
I think there's a difference between God and religion.
A man can preach no better than he prays.
Prayer is simply a two-way conversation between you and God.
Prayer gives a man the opportunity of getting to know a gentleman he hardly ever meets. I do not mean his maker, but himself.
Man goes far away or near but God never goes far-off; he is always standing close at hand, and even if he cannot stay within he goes no further than the door.
Over the years as I went through a lot more things, I've gotten closer and closer to God as far as praying a lot more, being into the Word.
