Power, Passion And Prayer

Power, Passion And Prayer
Charles G. Finney

"There are two kinds of means requisite to promote a revival; the one to influence man, the other to influence God"

Best known for messages on revival that ignited America's Second Great Awakening in the 1800s Charles G. Finney started the conflagration one Christian at a time.

"The truth is employed to influence man, and prayer to move God. When I speak of moving God, I do not mean that prayer changes God's mind, or that His disposition or character is changed, But prayer produces such a change in us as renders it consistent for God to do, as it would not be consistent for Him to do otherwise" Charles G. Finney
