“How little chance the Holy Ghost has nowadays.
 The churches and missionary societies have so
 bound Him in red tape that they practically ask 
Him to sit in a corner while they do
 the work themselves.”

“What the Church needs to-day is not more machinery or better,
 not new organizations or more and novel methods,
 but men whom the Holy Ghost can use, men of prayer,
 men mighty in prayer.
 The Holy Ghost does not flow through methods, but through men.
 He does not come on machinery, but on men.
 He does not anoint plans, but men, men of prayer.”

indeed abides in you!”
