The Necessity of Prayer - Edward Bounds McKendree
"God shapes the world by prayer."
As The Sunday School Times aptly describes, Edward McKendree Bounds "was a specialist in prayer, and his books are for the quiet hour, for careful meditation, and for all who wish to seek and find the treasures of God."
Bounds beckons readers into the heart of communion with the Divine, unveiling the essential role of prayer in the life of every believer. With fervent passion and unwavering conviction, he guides us through the corridors of faith, urging us to grasp the profound truth that prayer is not merely a religious obligation, but a transformative journey that draws us closer to the very heart of God.
With clarity and conviction, Bounds unveils the secrets of effective prayer, guiding readers toward a richer, more vibrant relationship with the Almighty. Through the pages of this book, you will be inspired to cultivate a deeper intimacy with the Almighty, to tap into the reservoirs of divine power, and to unleash the miraculous potential of a life surrendered to prayer. Whether you are embarking on your spiritual journey or seeking to revitalize your prayer life, this timeless classic will serve as a guiding light, leading you into the sacred sanctuary of prayer where miracles are born and destinies are forged.
"Prayer must be habitual, but much more than a habit. It is duty, yet one which rises far above, and goes beyond the ordinary implications of the term. It is the expression of a relation to God, a yearning for divine communion. it is the outward and upward flow of the inward life toward its original fountain. It is an assertion of the soul's paternity, a claiming of the sonship, which links man to the eternal.
Prayer has everything to do with molding the soul into the image of God, and has everything to do with enhancing and enlarging the measure of divine grace. It has everything to do with bringing the soul into complete communion with God. It has everything to do with enriching, broadening and maturing the soul's experience of God. That man cannot possibly be called a Christian, who does not pray. By no possible pretext can he claim any right to the term, nor its implied significance. If he does not pray, he is a sinner, pure and simple, for prayer is the only way in which the soul of man can enter into fellowship and communion with the source of all Christlike spirit and energy. Hence, if he prays not, he is not of the household of faith."
