The Power of Prayer

The Power of Prayer is the classic handbook on tapping the unlimited power of God. It discusses the freedom, peace, and security available through communication with God and answers common questions about prayer: - How to pray? - Who can pray? - Why pray? - What interferes with prayer? - How to overcome hindrances to prayer? - What can prayer do for a person or a nation? No other book so clearly outlines the positives of prayer, the prerequisites of prayer, the purpose of prayer, or the power of prayer.

The effective, fervent prayer of a righteous man avails much. --James 5:16 NKJV

• Experience intimacy with God.
• Have immense power in your Christian walk.
• Know that your prayers are answered.
• Pray with confidence and expectation.
• Know God's will for your life.

"Nights in prayer bring days of power," writes Torrey. Prayer is the answer to the poverty and powerlessness that has infested the church of Christ. By example, Jesus demonstrated all that can be accomplished through prayer, and He promises that the same power is available today. As you learn to tap into the power of prayer, you will see lives and circumstances all around you begin to change!

Moody and was the first superintendent of the Moody Bible Institute (1889 - 1908).
