Pray earnestly, prayer. Now Peter and John went up together into the temple at the hour of prayer , being the ninth hour. It is in our times of prayer that miracles are generated and the supply of the Spirit is given.
Prayer is the threshold to the miraculous.
Prayer is the entrance into the power of God. Without it we are paralyzed and helpless to save a crippled world. Without the same devotion to prayer we will be powerless and impotent in our ministry. We must give ourselves to prayer before we give ourselves to the people. But we will give ourselves continually to prayer , and to the ministry of the word.
