A young man in Bible school offered to help David Wilkerson (of The Sword and The Switchblade) when he was ministering on the streets of New York City. Wilkerson asked him how much time he spent in prayer. The young student estimated about 20 minutes a day.
"Go back for a month and pray two hours a day, every day, for 30 days. When you've done that, come back. I might consider turning you loose on the streets where there is murder, rape, violence, and danger. If I send you out now on 20 minutes a day, I'd be sending a solder into battle without any weapons, and you would get killed."
(Floyd McClung on Apostolic Passion in Perspectives on the World Christian Movement, p. 205)
