Spurgeon…
I believe in business prayers: I mean, prayers in which you take to God one of the many precious promises which he has given us in his Word, and expect it to be fulfilled as certainly as we look for the money to be given to us when we go to the bank to cash a cheque or note. We should not think of going there, Iolling over the counter, chatting with the clerks upon every conceivable subject except the
one thing for which we had gone to the bank… We shouldseek out the promise which applies to that particularcase, plead it before the Lord in faith, expect to have theblessing-to which it relates, and then, having received it, let us proceed to the next duty devolving upon us.
