Prayer 101 Manual

Practical Teaching on Prayer by 
John Edmiston

The most important commandment states that we should love the Lord our God with everything we got. As someone who is in love, we need to communicate with Him regularly through prayer.
Prayer 101 is a manual that teaches us how to communicate to Him, ask for our hearts’ desires, and pray for others. Though prayer is essential to our relationship with God, it also plays a part in fulfilling the second most essential commandment: to love our neighbor as we love ourselves. It means that we have to regularly intercede to God to bring the needs of our fellow man to His feet. It includes prayer for sickness, loneliness, depression, loss, and grief. If you want to fortify your connection with our Creator and help humanity at the same time, learning how to pray is the first thing you should know.

The Book of Bible Promises

Prayer by 
George Mueller

The Book of Bible Promises is a spirited exposition on the approximately thirty thousand promises God made in the Bible, written by Christian evangelist George Muller. How do His promises become a reality for us? Muller ardently explains that it is solely due to the Lord Jesus Christ and that His promises are founded on His unchanging nature. He, alone, is worthy, and it is He who has made us worthy to approach before Him. His promises are precious and priceless; they are a balm to the soul and remove the burden from the heart.

In The Book of Bible Promises, Muller discusses, in length, His promises borne out of His providence and benevolence and how these oaths, ultimately, are the guiding light for Christians towards the path of righteousness and redemption.

A Simple Way to Pray – Martin Luther

A Simple Way to Pray

Prayer  by 
Martin Luther

A Simple Way to Pray is a passage from the forty-third volume of Luther’s works in the American Edition. This book is a modern translation of Luther’s practical instruction, delivered through his ITCP method of instruction, thanksgiving, confession, and prayer.

Despite the fact that prayer is an essential part of the Christian life, many Christians struggle with it. When Luther’s barber and close friend Peter Beskendorf requested practical guidance on how to pray, he wrote this brief essay, which was first published in 1535.

This method centers prayer on the catechism or other biblical passages, but it also allows the Holy Spirit to stimulate thoughts through the Word, which the mind can chase more freely during prayer. Readers’ prayer life will be renewed and energized as they gain confidence in praying to God. Pastors may purchase in bulk and distribute to members following pastoral care, confirmation, or church membership.

Answering all the important questions, Prevailing Prayer explains the biblical element of the universe which we call prayer.

Exposition of the Lords Prayer

Daily Devotional  by 
Thomas Hooker

A famous leader who founded the colony of Connecticut, Thomas Hooker was an outstanding speaker and a voice of universal Christian suffrage. Being an important figure in the early development and one of the greatest preachers, this is a scarce antiquarian book that is culturally important and classic Christian literature. The book investigates and provides a perfect pattern of prayer that is a reflection of God’s will with a tone that is full and comprehensive, guarantees satisfaction, motivation and inspiration for its reader by delving into expositions of the Lord’s prayer. The book is a well-needed reminder of the Lord’s mercy and the connection prayer establishes with God so that the man can repent. It is a reminder of half sentences and broken speeches that the Lord interprets and regards. It is a reminder of the truth of a soul that is faithful and willing to pass by many failings.

Prayer and Preaching  by 
Karl Barth

Pray and Preaching depicts Karl Barth’s characteristic union of simplicity and profoundness in a wonderful manner. The pages curate the Word from the Lord for revitalizing the Church today. Based on a couple of series of informal lectures that Bath attended; the first lecture he studied is a Christian prayer, particularly the Lord’s Prayer interested by Luther and Calvin whereas the second lecture ventures into the field of practical theology, exploring and discussing the vital characteristics of preaching and methods of preparing a sermon. The influence of the marriage of these studies is evident in the tone of this little book. The book comments on the trust the preachers put in the Scripture and being a notable figure and author himself, the writer remains humble when proclaiming the Word of God. Barth states that even Christians who are not responsible for composing sermons do have the responsibility of hearing God.
