"The church was never in all its history so fully, skillfully, thoroughly, and so perfectly organized as it is today. But if things do not go right, instead of going to the real source of our failure, which is our neglect to depend on God and look to God for power, we look around to see if there is some new organization we can get up, some new wheel that we can add to our machinery. What we really need is the spirit of the living creature in the wheels we already possess. Prayer is the key that unlocks all the storehouses of God’s infinite grace and power. Prayer can do anything that God can do, and as God can do anything, prayer is omnipotent... Prayer will bring the power of God into our work. “Those who wait on the LORD shall renew their strength” (Isa 40:31). It is ours to have the power of God if we will only seek it by prayer in any, every line of service to which God calls us. If we would spend more nights before God on our faces in prayer, there would be more days of power when we faced our congregations." - R.A. Torrey
