We observe that in the scriptures, fasting almost always is linked with prayer. Without prayer, fasting is not complete fasting; it's simply going hungry.

Joseph B. Wirthlin

Prayer can come in only when fasting has done its work. It can make fasting easy and bearable.

Mahatma Gandhi

The Lord intends us to be powerful people-mighty in optimism and hopeful of spirit, powerful in evangelistic zeal, potent in influence, sturdy in moral fiber and purity. We can be powerhouses in prayer and preaching.

David Jeremiah

Just a thank you is a mighty powerful prayer. Says it all.

Rosanne Cash

Prayer is reaching out after the unseen; fasting is letting go of all that is seen and temporal. Fasting helps express, deepen, confirm the resolution that we are ready to sacrifice anything, even ourselves to attain what we seek for the kingdom of God.

Andy Murray

Mighty prayer has often been produced by mighty trial.

Charles Spurgeon

In Shansi I found Chinese Christians who were accustomed to spend time in fasting and prayer. They recognized that this fasting, which so many dislike, which requires faith in God, since it makes one feel weak and poorly, is really a Divinely appointed means of grace. Perhaps the greatest hindrance to our work is our own imagined strength; and in fasting we learn what poor, weak creatures we are-dependent on a meal of meat for the little strength which we are so apt to lean upon.

Hudson Taylor

Bear up the hands that hang down, by faith and prayer; support the tottering knees. Have you any days of fasting and prayer? Storm the throne of grace and persevere therein, and mercy will come down.

John Wesley

I believe that there is no prayer without fasting, and there is no real fast without prayer.

Mahatma Gandhi

As a people of faith, we know that prayer is a powerful instrument. And as one Nation under God, we know that many times our most powerful tool is prayer.

Nick Rahall

I think the Lord's Prayer is a very powerful prayer. And the prayer of St. Francis.

Dennis Kucinich

Fasting and prayer are common injunctions in my religion.

Mahatma Gandhi

The most powerful prayer, one wellnigh omnipotent, and the worthiest work of all is the outcome of a quiet mind. The quieter it is the more powerful, the worthier, the deeper, the more telling and more perfect the prayer is.

Meister Eckhart

There is no such thing as a powerful prayer; we only have powerful people praying to a powerful God.

Chris Oyakhilome

Through prayer, fasting, and studying, God will answer.

Monica Johnson

We must continue in prayer if we are to get an outpouring of the Spirit. Christ says there are some things we shall not get, unless we pray and fast, yes, "prayer and fasting." We must control the flesh and abstain from whatever hinders direct fellowship with God.
