Union of Faith and Prayer
Mark 9:28-29
And when he was come into the house, his disciples asked him privately, Why could not we cast him out?…


I am thankful that these words concerning prayer have stood the ordeal of the late Revision. One seems to crave a reference to prayer after a lesson on the importance of faith. Prayer seems to be the voice by which faith must express itself; it is almost, or even quite, impossible to conceive of faith coming into action except in connection with and by means of the utterance of prayer.

(Bishop Harvey Goodwin.)
