Prayer

The reason why many fail in battle is because they wait until the hour of battle. The reason why others succeed is because they have gained their victory on their knees long before the battle came. Anticipate your battles; fight them on your knees before temptation comes, and you will always have victory. - R. A. Torry 1856-1928
My Grandfathers taught at a small Bible college in upstate New York from 1919 to 1976.  I have been reading some of their textbooks that they used.  I have been impressed with R.A. Torry and wanted to pass on the quote.  In all the technology and knowledge we have available today sometimes we look back with arrogance.  We need to understand that many of those that have already passed can help us understand the struggles ahead.
