FOUR PRINCIPLES ABOUT PRAYER
No believer’s spiritual life will rise to stay above the level of his/her praying.
No church’s ultimate effectiveness will rise to stay above the level of its corporate prayer life.
No church’s corporate prayer life will be greater than the personal prayer lives of those who make up its constituency.
No believer’s prayer life will rise to stay above the level of his/her own personal, regular, daily time spent with God.
