Below are quotes from Leonard Ravinhill gleaned from his various books:
We have too many dead men in the pulpits giving out too many dead sermons to too many dead people.
The secret of praying is praying in secret.
A sinning man will stop praying and a praying man will stop sinning.
A sober church never does any good. At this hour, we need men drunk with the Holy Ghost.
The only power that God yields to is the power of prayer.
If there are degrees of death, then the deadest I know of is to preach about the Holy Ghost without the anointing of the Holy Ghost.
I do not marvel at the patience of the Lord with sinners. After all, would we not be patient with a man both blind and deaf? But I do marvel at the Lord's patience with the sleeply, sluggish, selfish church.
God has nothing more to give to this world. He gave His only begotten Son for sinners. He gave the Bible for all men. He gave the Holy Ghost to convict the world and equip the church. What good is a meeting, if the living Lord is absent?
In praying, some assume the unpardonable arrogance of crying for the blessed Spirit to come with His grace.....but not with His gifts.
God asks men to do NOT what they can, but what they can't.
No man is greater than his prayer life.
The sign of Christianity is not a cross, but a tongue of fire.
If any of us knows God, then look out Lucifer!!
