Thanks much
Dear John, I’m not sure. I feel it comes from the Hiding Place chapter 11, but I don’t have the book so I can’t check. Hope that helps. Blessings,
Kevin
Just wondering if anyone knows where the quote “Don’t pray when you feel like it. Have an appointment with the Lord and keep it. A man is powerful on his knees” is found. Am in the middle of publishing a book in which this quote is used. I can find this quote all over the web, but cannot find where the quote comes from.
Thanks for any help
Everything I find points to Corrie ten Boom penning this quote. You can look for an electronic version of the Hiding Place and do a search. I feel like it comes from the beginning of the book, but I have no proof of this.
Thanks,
Kevin
