Patterson on Prayer, chapter 1
Quotes from chapter 1 of Ben Patterson's
Deepening Your Conversation with God.
When
the excitement died down enough for them to ask the question, his
disciples said, “Why couldn’t we drive it out?” Jesus’ answer is as
devastating as it is brief. He said, “This kind can come out only by
prayer. ( Mark 9:29 ). They had to pray to drive the demon out! What
on earth were
they doing before Jesus walked up? Whatever it was, clearly they
weren’t praying. They were trying to cast out demons without
prayer!...Churches can run without prayer. Whole denominations can run
without prayer. The question is: Is what they’re doing worth doing if
they can do it without prayer? I don’t think so...Do we really believe
that programs and committees and ecclesiastical exertions and
pronouncements are going to change that? Jesus doesn’t...Only by
prayer."
"The
pastor who claims to be too busy to pray is really a lazy person. In
busyness, he or she is procrastinating, avoiding the real work of
prayer."
"Perhaps one reason God delays his answers to our
prayers is because he knows we need to be with him far more than we
need the things we ask of him. I include myself among those who have
prayed for years for someone or something with no apparent answer or
resolution. But we can say that as we prayed long and hard, we found
something we may not have been looking for when we began to pray,
something better than the thing we asked of God. We found his
incomparable presence. The praying can often be greater than the things
we pray for."
