Essentials of Prayer Perfect Edward M. Bounds

E.M. Bounds' classics on prayer have been continuously in print for over 100 years. Prayer has to do with the entire man. Prayer takes in man in his whole being, mind, soul and body. It takes the whole man to pray, and prayer affects the entire man in its gracious results... The whole man must be given to God in praying. ... God wants, and must have, all that there is in man in answering his prayers. He must have whole-hearted men through whom to work out His purposes and plans concerning men. God must have men in their entirety. No double-minded man need apply. No vacillating man can be used. No man with a divided allegiance to God, and the world, and self, can do the praying that is needed. Holiness is wholeness, and so God wants holy men, men whole-hearted and true, for His service and for the work of praying... These are the sort of men God wants for leaders of the hosts of Israel, and these are the kind out of which the praying class is formed. E.M. Bounds Subjects covered in this book: Prayer takes in the whole man Prayer and humility Prayer and devotion Prayer Praise and Thanksgiving Prayer and trouble Prayer and God's work Prayer and Consecration Prayer and a definite religious standard Prayer and compassion Concerted prayer The universality of prayer Prayer and missions
