Synopsis

In this follow-up to his earlier book on prayer, With Christ In the School of Prayer, Andrew Murray explores the idea that Christ actually meant prayer to be the great power by which His Church should do its work, and that the neglect of prayer is the great reason the Church does not have greater power over the masses in so-called Christian and non-Christian countries. Murray is convinced that, “A life abiding in Christ and filled with the Spirit, a life entirely given up as a branch for the work of the vine, has the power to claim these promises and to pray the effectual prayer that availeth much.”If you need any reason why you should pray more, or if you want reassurance that your prayers will be answered accordingly, this is the book for you. Complete with Christian truths and an accompanying 31-day prayer guide, Murray hits another home-run with this book on prayer that will cultivate a deeper desire for communion with God.

About this title

About the Author:

Andrew Murray became a noted missionary leader, writer, and pastor. His father was a Scottish Presbyterian serving the Dutch Reformed Church of South Africa, and his mother had connections with both French Huguenots and German Lutherans. This background serves to explain his ecumenical spirit. Murray considered missions to be the chief end of the church. This led to ministry to blacks in the Transvaal and Malawi regions. He was a leader of the South African Revival of 1860. In addition to his evangelistic tours in South Africa, he spoke at the Keswick and Northfield Conventions, making a great impression upon his audiences. For his contribution to world missions he was given honorary doctorates by the universities of Aberdeen and Cape of Good Hope. Andrew Murray is best known today for his devotional writings, which place great emphasis on the need for a rich, personal devotional life. Many of his over 240 books explain how he saw this devotion working in the life of the Christian. Over the years he has influenced thousands. Several of his books have become devotional classics.
