The Kneeling Christian: If ye have faith and doubt not ... all things, whatsoever ye shall ask in prayer, believing, ye shall receive.
Albert Richardson - 1930
Why do most Christians see so few brought out of darkness to light by their ministry? Because they pray so little. Why are our churches simply not on fire for God? Because there is so little real prayer.We may be assured of this: The secret of all failure is our failure in secret prayer.This book explores, in depth:•God’s wonder at our lack of prayer•God’s incredible promises concerning those who do pray•God's condition for providing signs•God's desire for earnest prayer•God's perspective on hindrances to prayerThe Lord Jesus is as powerful today as ever before. The Lord Jesus is as anxious for men to be saved as ever before. His arm is not shortened that it cannot save, but He does not stretch forth His arm unless we pray more – and more genuinely. Prayer, real prayer, is the noblest, the sublimest, and the most stupendous act that any creature of God can perform. Lord, teach us how to pray.
The Buddha in Me, The Buddha in You: A Handbook for Happiness
David Hare - 2016
