This one is my personal favorite, of the E. M. Bounds classics on prayer. If you want a deeper relationship in prayer then this book will inspire you. If you need a clearer understanding of how to pray, this is the book for you. I highly recommend everything written by this Classic Prayer Author.

"The Essentials Of Prayer" by E.M. Bounds focuses on the right attitudes for either individual or corporate prayer.

Some of the points covered include:

1. No person with a divided allegiance to God and the world can do the prayer that is needed.
2. Excellent points on humility.
3. Busy religious activity will not make up for an empty prayer life.
4. Trouble often drives people to prayer. Trouble is neither above God or beyond His control.
5. God works most effectively through holy people.
6. Many Christians are aimless because they have no pattern to follow for shaping their character and conduct.
7. In the lust for more church members, some churches have compromised on purity.
8. No sinner is barred from the mercy seat. All are welcomed to approach the throne of grace in time of need.
9. The key to missionary success is prayer.

Another excellent title by Bounds to approach prayer more seriously.

Highly recommended!

E.M. Bounds truly understood the importance of prayer in the life of a Christian, and this book is an essential read for those who wish to improve their prayer life. I heartily recommend reading and putting into practice the teaching in this book.

Good book about how to pray and how prayer has to do with the entire man. Prayer takes in man in his whole being, mind, soul and body.

The entire man must pray. The whole man, life, heart and mind are in it.
