"God shapes the world by prayer."As The Sunday School Times aptly describes, Edward McKendree Bounds "was a specialist in prayer, and his books are for the quiet hour, for careful meditation, and for all who wish to seek and find the treasures of God."Bounds beckons readers into the heart of communion with the Divine, unveiling the essential role of prayer in the life of every believer. With meticulous insight, Bounds invites readers into the inner sanctum of prayer, exploring the lives of men whose fervent prayers shaped history. From the pages of Scripture to the annals of church history, he unveils the transformative power of prayer through the lives of biblical heroes and spiritual giants. As you journey through these pages, you will be captivated by the fervor of patriarchs, prophets, apostles, and saints who sought the face of God with unwavering faith. Through their stories, Bounds reveals the profound impact of prayer on individual lives, communities, and nations, inspiring readers to embark on their own journey of spiritual awakening and intercession. With each turn of the page, you will be drawn deeper into the sacred realm of prayer, discovering its power to shape destinies, ignite revival, and usher in the kingdom of God. Whether you are new to the practice of prayer or a seasoned intercessor, this classic work will guide you into a richer, more vibrant relationship with the Almighty, transforming your life and the world around you. The latter portion of the book is equally remarkable, as it delves into the prayer life of the apostle Paul, revealing the indispensable role prayer played in his life and ministry. "How greatly we need a school to teach the art of praying! This simplest of all arts and mightiest of all forces is ever in danger of being forgotten or depraved. The further we get away from our mother's knees, the further do we get away from the true art of praying. All our after-schooling and our after-teachers unteach us the lessons of prayer. Men prayed well in Old Testament times because they were simple men and lived in simple times. They were childlike, lived in childlike times and had childlike faith.In citing the Old Testament saints noted for their praying habits, by no means must David be overlooked, a man who preeminently was a man of prayer. With him prayer was a habit, for we hear him say, "Evening and morning and at noon will I pray and cry aloud." Prayer with the Sweet Psalmist of Israel was no strange occupation. He knew the way to God and was often found in that way. It is no wonder we hear his call so clear and impressive, "O come, let us worship and bow down; let us kneel before the Lord our Maker." He knew God as the one being who could answer prayer: "O thou that hearest prayer, to thee shall all flesh come."
