"As a general principle, wherever people are seeking the gift of the Holy Spirit, a period of instruction from God's Word should always precede any period of prayer. For my own part, if I were allotted thirty minutes to help believers seeking the gift of the Holy Spirit, I would spend at least half that time - the first fifteen minutes - giving scriptural instruction. The next fifteen minutes devoted to prayer would produce a far more positive result than a full thirty minutes given to prayer without any instruction beforehand".
Derek Prince - "Foundational Truths for Christian Living" - (2006) Charisma Press - p230.
"The man who never reads will never be read. He who never quotes will never be quoted. He who will not use the thoughts of other men's brains proves that he has no brains of his own ... You need to read" - C H Spurgeon. "To fail to learn from the pulpit of the past is to impoverish that of the present" - Tony Sargent
