These prayer-meetings should be kept to their object, and their great attraction should be prayer itself.
An address if you like, a few burning words to stir up prayer if you like, but if you cannot have them, do not look upon speech-making as at all necessary.
Let it be a standing ordinance in the church that at certain times and occasions many shall meet together to pray, and supplication shall be their sole object.
The private Christian will read, and hear, and meditate, but none of these can be a substitute for prayer: the same truth holds good upon the larger scale, the church should listen to her teachers, and receive edification from gospel ordinances, but she must also pray; nothing can compensate for the neglect of devotion.
From a sermon by Charles Haddon Spurgeon entitled "The Special Prayer Meeting," delivered July 20, 1875.
