A call to Prayer Part 1

Practical teaching on prayer by 
J.C. Ryle

A Call to Prayer, written by Anglican bishop John Charles Ryle, is a bold, encouraging, and compassionate invitation to all God’s children to come before Him in prayer. It is a direct admonition to pray sincerely and incessantly. In this part, Ryle explains that one of the most important challenges confronting our country and the world is the crisis of fatherhood. Indeed, if the world is to be saved, the Church must be revitalized. If the macro-Church is to be revitalized, the micro-Church of the family must be revitalized as well. And, if the family is to be healed and revitalized, the man who is both husband and father must become the man God made him be – a father on earth like the Father in heaven. Ryle was recognized for his warm, straightforward candor, the kind that appeals to all souls and A Call to Prayer is no exception.

A Call to Prayer is a bold, encouraging, and compassionate invitation to all God’s children to come before Him in prayer. It is a direct admonition to pray sincerely and incessantly.

Private prayer, according to Ryle, is the most neglected of all Christian responsibilities. It is regrettable because private prayer is the genuine measure of a Christian’s walk with God, as well as “the pith and marrow of practical Christianity.” To encourage his readers to practice and enjoy the luxury of private prayer, Ryle highlights both the benefits of prayer and the severe risks of prayerlessness.

A Call to Prayer highlights that prayer, with God’s blessing, gives birth to new life, develops faith, moves mountains, and fosters spiritual growth and contentment that transcends circumstances. His admonition is undoubtedly timely for our contemporary evangelical church, which has been a testimony to a lost and perishing world in the last generation.

Prayer Avails Much

Practical teaching on prayer  by 
T.M. Anderson

An evangelist and a college professor associated with the Methodist Episcopal Church and the Church of Nazarene, Tony Marshall Anderson is convinced that the people of faith have not discovered the full potential and infinite possibilities of praying. The message in his book is addressing this very issue and hence, it is written to stimulate and catalyze the interest of the masses in praying without ceasing. Anderson concludes that Christ is our hope of deliverance in a frenzy world lined with obstacles, he further elaborates by stating the directly proportional relationship between praying, faith and victory that comes with unwavering faith and that we all hope for in the light of God’s unfailing promises. When delivering his message, Anderson also remains humble as he considers it impossible for an individual to present a complete study on the vast subject of prayer; it would be like measuring eternity by a span.

Get up therefore and follow it as gladly, as the Wise Men of the East followed the Star from Heaven that appeared to them. It will do for thee, as the Star did for them, it will lead thee to the birth of Jesus, not in a stable at Bethlehem in Judea, but to the Birth of Jesus in the dark centre of thy own fallen Soul.”
