Promises, though they be for a time seemingly delayed, cannot be finally frustrated…. the heart of God is not turned though His face be hid; and prayers are not flung back, though they be not instantly answered.
Martin Luther
Prayer is not overcoming God’s reluctance, but laying hold of His willingness.
Thomas Brooks
Your life is short, your duties many, your assistance great, and your reward sure; therefore faint not, hold on and hold up, in ways of well-doing, and heaven shall make amends for all
Christopher Fowler
[Believers] have joy and comfort—that joy that angels cannot give, and devils cannot take.
Thomas Watson
The more we enjoy of God, the more we are ravished with delight.
