Most of us pray, but the truth is that our prayers are often shallow or produce no results at all, if any. Most of us mumble for a few minutes or cry out when we are desperate. Most of us just have lists that we bring before God and hope for the best. But there is more...
"How to Pray effectively" is a prayer classic that biblically guides even the most seasoned person of prayer into more profound, more significant prayer. It will renew your desire to seek God in prayer and guide you in best practices.
Filled with a spirit of graciousness, Pastor, Evangelist, and Author R. A. Torrey explains the elements of biblical, powerful prayer that avail much. Torrey reveals that there is more to it than just mouthing requests to God. There is more to prayer than reciting the Lord's Prayer or following a technique. It is a way to find the very heart and will of God and have faith to see Him move as a result of us on our knees.
"In Ephesians 6:18, we read words that show the incredible importance of prayer very clearly and forcefully: "Praying at all times in the Spirit, with all prayer and supplication. To that end, keep alert with all perseverance, making supplication for all the saints." When we really stop to understand the meaning of these words and their context, we will say, "I must pray, pray, pray. I must put all my energy and all my heart into prayer. Whatever else I do, I must pray! ...Pray for great things, expect great things, work for great things, but above all pray!" ― R. A. Torrey
