「我們既有一位...大祭司，就是神的兒子耶穌，便當堅守所承認的。...所以我們只管坦然無懼的來到施恩的寶座前，為要受憐憫，得恩典，作應時的幫助。」－希伯來書4:14, 16
祂從我們的手中接去那些不完全的禱告，潔淨其中的斑點、缺陷，改正一切的謬誤、妄求；並以自己的名，以祂所成就的救贖和公義，一併地帶到父面前，為我們求禱。
弟兄姊妹們，你在禱告的事上已經疲倦了嗎？
向上看吧！你有福的中保已經為你贏取了禱告，並帶著勝利的回應向著你走來；若你半途而廢，垂頭喪氣迎接基督到來，那將會多麼令祂氣餒難受啊。
祂已經為你進入至聖所，將你的名字雙手呈獻神前；而帶來回應的賜福使者，如今也已行在路上了。
你只需要信靠，聖靈就要在你的心中低語，回應寶座上傳出的答覆：「成了」。
－宣信
在每一個神所成就的禱告中，聖靈總是在其中扮演最關鍵的角色；可惜的是，我們常忽略祂的重要性。
聖靈開啟了心思，使我們明白所需；
祂柔軟了硬心，使我們充分感受其迫切；
祂激動了盼望，使我們向上追求；
祂鼓舞了信心，使我們能不猶疑的信靠真理；
祂也照明了心眼，使我們看見神的智慧、能力和恩典。
禱告是一件太奇妙的事，三一神中的每一位：父、子、聖靈，都協力參與每個蒙應允的禱告。
－詹姆士
"Seeing then that we have a great high Priest?Jesus, the Son of God, let us hold fast our profession. Let us come boldly unto the throne of grace, that we may obtain mercy, and find grace to help
in time of need" (Heb. 4:14,16).
Our great Helper in prayer is the Lord Jesus Christ, our Advocate with the Father, our Great High Priest, whose chief ministry for us these centuries has been intercession and prayer. He it is
who takes our imperfect petitions from our hands, cleanses them from their defects, corrects their faults, and then claims their answer from His Father on His own account and through His
all-atoning merits and righteousness.
Brother, are you fainting in prayer? Look up. Your blessed Advocate has already claimed your answer, and you would grieve and disappoint Him if you were to give up the conflict in the very moment when victory is on its way to meet you. He has gone in for you into the inner chamber, and already holds up your name upon the palms of His hands; and the messenger, which is to bring you your blessing, is now on his way, and the Spirit is only waiting your trust to whisper in your heart the echo of the answer from the throne, "It is done." --A. B. Simpson
The Spirit has much to do with acceptable prayer, and His work in prayer is too much neglected. He enlightens the mind to see its wants, softens the heart to feel them, quickens our desires after suitable supplies, gives clear views of God's power, wisdom, and grace to relieve us, and stirs up that confidence in His truth which excludes all wavering. Prayer is, therefore, a wonderful thing. In every acceptable prayer the whole Trinity is concerned. --J. Angell James
