It is not what we escape, but what we gain, by going to heaven that thrills our souls. It is not our desire to be unclothed, but to be clothed upon, that moves us to seek its residence.
In the Thick Darkness
Faith in Islam amounts to a slavelike submission to the power and will of God.
Prayer is one of the most needful and least exercised benefits that we have as believers. It is no wonder individuals, homes, and churches are not experiencing the power of God. We are not even asking for it.
Many of our prayers are carnal and selfish. Paul’s prayers held some spiritual meat and were directed towards spiritual blessings for other believers. Perhaps we would do well to return to spiritual prayer.
