PRAYER-HOLY
SPIRIT
The
Holy Spirit as the Spirit of Power helpeth our
infirmity in prayer.
The Holy Spirit as the Spirit of Life ends our deadness in prayer.
The Holy Spirit as the Spirit of Wisdom delivers us from ignorance in this holy
art of prayer.
The Holy Spirit as the Spirit of Fire delivers us from coldness in prayer.
The Holy Spirit as the Spirit of Might comes to our aid in our weakness as we
pray.
Leonard Ravenhill
Prayer is an
art which only the Spirit can teach us. He is the giver of all prayer.
C.H.
Spurgeon
In our prayer
God returns from His projection in Nature to speak with Himself. When we speak
to God it is really the God who lives in us speaking through us to Himself. His Spirit returns to Him who gave it; and returns
not void, but bearing our souls with Him

The Soul of
Prayer.
To pray in the Holy Spirit simply means to lean upon His divine
help as we pray.
Bill Thrasher
A Journey to Victorious Praying, Moody Publishers, 2003, p. 42-43.
As we seek to
obey the Spirit’s guidance in prayer, let me tell you what will often happen – nothing! But sometimes “nothing” means
that the Spirit desires to slow us down and lead us into silence. Our society
is addicted to noise, and for that reason we are often insensitive to the
Spirit of God.
Bill Thrasher
A Journey to Victorious Praying, Moody Publishers, 2003, p. 55.
Men of power
are without exception men of prayer. God bestows His Holy Spirit in His
fullness only on men of prayer. And it is through the operation of the Spirit
that answers to prayer come.

For the Holy
Spirit is prayer's great Helper. We are incapable of ourselves to translate our
real needs into prayer. The Holy Spirit does this for us. We cannot ask as we
ought. The Holy Spirit does this for us. It is possible for unaided man to ask
what is for our ill. The Holy Spirit can check this. No weak or trembling hand
dare put in motion any mighty force. Can I – dare I – move the Hand that moves
the universe? No! Unless the Holy Spirit has control of me.
