quotes from Chapter 50 Accountability in Prayer by John D. Floyd
"I sincerely believe things happen all over the world every day purely as an answer to my prayers. If I did not believe this, I would not pray. This makes the accountability in prayer huge."
"J. Oswald Sanders said it well: 'True prayer is not asking God for what we want, but for what He wants.' We limit what God will do by our failure to ask. God certainly has the power to do whatever He wills, but he has decided to do some things only as an answer to prayer. We are accountable to pray."
"It is easy enough to criticize political leaders for poor decisions, but how much better to help them make good decisions by interceding for them."
"Through prayer God gave Peter directions to go to Cornelius and to Paul to go to Macedonia. The work of churches is governed through prayer."
"We live without revival because we are satisfied to live without revival."
