Synopsis

I desire by God's grace to give to you this message-that your God in heaven answers the prayers which you have offered for blessing on yourselves and for blessing on those around you by this one demand: Are you willing to surrender yourselves absolutely into His hands? Every one of us is a temple of God, in which God will dwell and work mightily on one condition-absolute surrender to Him. God claims it, God is worthy of it, and without it God cannot work His blessed work in us.

About this title

About the Author

Andrew Murray (1828-1917) was a South African pastor, missionary leader, devotional writer, and one of the most widely read Christian authors of the nineteenth and early twentieth centuries. Born into a Scottish Dutch Reformed family in South Africa and educated in Scotland and the Netherlands, Murray spent his long ministry preaching, teaching, writing, and encouraging a deeper life of prayer, holiness, surrender, and practical union with Christ. His work is rooted in Protestant evangelical devotion, but its appeal has reached across denominational lines because of its directness, spiritual seriousness, and steady focus on the inner life of the believer.Murray's books remain important in Christian devotional literature because they combine biblical teaching with pastoral urgency. Works such as Absolute Surrender, Abide in Christ, Humility, With Christ in the School of Prayer, and The Master's Indwelling continue to serve readers seeking Christian spiritual growth, prayer, consecration, sanctification, and a disciplined life of faith. His writing is marked by simplicity without shallowness: Murray returns again and again to surrender, dependence on Christ, the work of the Holy Spirit, and the transformation of ordinary Christian life through obedience and abiding communion with God.
