Pursue prayer with an energy that never tires, a persistency which will not be denied, and a courage that never fails.
God is waiting to hear our prayers.
E. M. Bounds, one of the most prolific and powerful writers on prayer, said, “Men and women are needed whose prayers will give to the world the utmost power of God, who will make His promises to blossom with rich and full results.”
A Treasury of PrayerA Treasury of Prayer is the best of seven books on prayer by E. M. Bounds in a single volume, compiled by preacher and intercessor Leonard Ravenhill. Read it until you believe it, then begin to pour out your heart to God in prayer until we experience a mighty visitation of God’s presence. Nothing else will suffice!
“The earnest prayer of a righteous person has great power and produces wonderful results.” James 5:16 NLT
