“So He is presented in Isaiah 30:18, ‘And therefore will the Lord wait, that He may be gracious unto you.’ Yes, He waits to be sought unto; waits for faith to lay hold of His readiness to bless. His ear is ever opened to the cries of the righteous.” – Arthur W. Pink, Profiting from the Word

“Freedom and delight in prayer are stimulated by the consciousness that God is, through Jesus Christ, willing and ready to dispense grace and mercy to suppliant sinners. ‘There is no reluctance in Him which we have to overcome. He is more ready to give than we are to receive.’” – Arthur W. Pink, Profiting from the Word

“Joy in prayer is furthered by the heart’s apprehension and the soul’s sight of God as on the throne of grace — a ‘sight’ or prospect not by carnal imagination, but by spiritual illumination, for it is by faith that we see ‘Him who is invisible’” (Heb 11:27). –

“Merely to ‘say’ our prayers each morning and evening is an irksome task, a duty to be performed which brings a sigh of relief when it is done. But really to come into the conscious presence of God, to behold the glorious light of His countenance, to commune with Him at the mercy seat, is a foretaste of the eternal bliss awaiting us in heaven. ” – Arthur W. Pink, Profiting from the Word

“Just because it ‘may be’ God’s will to grant a certain temporal mercy unto me, it is my duty to cast myself upon Him and plead for it, yet with entire submission to His good pleasure for the performance of it.” –
