Praying People will always change the World! In this wonderful classic book about prayer, author Edward M Bounds, clearly identifies those throughout the Bible who knew the importance of praying to God. From Joshua and Jacob, and Samuel and Samson, to Daniel and David, and Peter and Paul, the sidnificance that prayer made in the lives of biblical men is unquestionable. Prayer is the difference between bictory and defeat- between communication with and isolation from God. "Hezekiah had hardly finished his prayer, and Isaiah was just about to go home when God gave him another message for Hezekiah, this time one more pleasant and encouraging. the mighty force of prayer had affected God, and had changed His edict and reversed Him in His purpose concerning Hezekiah. what is that which prayer cannot do? what is it which a praying man cannot accomplish through prayer?" Learn how you can be vitorious through praying such as those men in the Bible who overcame great odds to fulfill their destinies in God.

"My earnest wish is to paint in true colors the goodness of God to me, and the depth of my own ingratitude…" Jeanne Marie Bouvier de La Motte was born near Paris in 1648. She was a sickly child who married a wealthy neighbor (22 years her senior) when she was 16 years of age. At age 28 she was a widow with three small children. At age 47 she was imprisoned because her writings about God and prayer ran contrary to the established church of the time. She lost her freedom for 7 years during which time she continued to write about the God she loved. "People want to direct God instead of resigning themselves to be directed by Him. They want to show Him a way, instead of passively following that wherein He leads them. Hence many souls, called to enjoy God Himself, and not barely His gifts, spend all their lives in running after little consolations, and feeding on them-resting there only, making all their happiness to consist therein." You are invited to read Madame Guyon's autobiography and judge for yourself if her experiences and writings are ones to condemn or condone.

What is prayer with a purpose? "The definite and direct utterance of one who knew that he had the ear of God, and that God had the willingness as well as the power to grant the petition which he asked of Him." There are basics of prayer. When you understand them, your prayers will change you, your family, and the world. Here are a few of the basics: The more praying there is in the world the better the world will be. Prayer is a disinfectant and a preventive. It purifies the air; it destroys the contagion of evil. Prayer is no fitful, short-lived thing. It is no voice crying unheard and unheeded in the silence. God shapes the world by prayer. Author Edward M. Bounds, a prolific writer about prayer, focuses on the purpose in prayer rather than the purpose of prayer-and answers many questions you may have about how to improve your prayer time. Why don't we pray more? "Other duties become pressing and absorbing and crowd out prayer. Choked to death, would be the coroner's verdict in many cases of dead praying, if an inquest could be secured on this dire, spiritual calamity." Will you be the one to pray for the various interests of earth and Heaven?

"…it is not the object of this book to ask anything of you, but to tell you that salvation is all of grace, which means, free, gratis, for nothing." C.H. Spurgeon is best known for his reasonalble and rational sermons and teachings. He preached to thousands in England during the 1800s; many times in contradiction to the established church beliefs. All of Grace insights include: The salvation of God is for those who do not deserve it. Faith is the work of God's grace in us. Forgiveness leads to repentance. If you look to Christ for your beginnings, beware of looking to yourself for your endings. The life of your soul lies in faith; its health lies in love. Common and vivid illustrations such as limpets at the seaside, a cup by the fountain, and fighting a swarm of flies with a sword characterizes the simple yet eternal truths of the gospel as shared by C.H. Spurgeon, a Reformed Baptist preacher. Always humbly directing the focus on the God of all grace, the author beckons his readers to accept salvation as the free and for nothing promise from a faithful heavenly Father of love.

Although written by a pastor born in South Africa in 1828, the wisdom shared in The Deeper Christian Life applies to modern-day, everyday Christians. In the Deeper Christian Life, he discusses situations and problems facing you today, including: · Doubting your relationship with God. · Dealing with sin and unforgiveness. · Unbelief. If there is to be any deepening of the spiritual life in us, we must come to the discovery, and the acknowledgment of the unbelief in our hearts. Unbelief is the mother of disobedience, and of all my sins and short comings my temper, my pride, my unlovingness, my worldliness, my sins of every kind. Discover your path to a deeper Christian life through this classic writing by a servant of God who changed the course of many turning them toward their destiny.

Many devout Christians will not like this book as I have discovered that they are neither interested, nor concerned with anything which challenges their long taught beliefs. I did not make history, but merely write on its historical significance in the events of mankind. For those truth seekers who are interested in the 'Why' regarding religious beliefs, this book offers a genesis of Christian beliefs. Religion is a multi-million dollar a year business, and world wide, that figure runs into the billions. Is the true nature of faith focused on mankind or merely a financial endeavor? Extraordinary care has been taken to present the good, and the bad, as well as the ugly side of religion.
