The Weapon of Prayer
Practical teaching on prayer by
E.M. Bounds
The Weapon of Prayer explores that it must never be forgotten that Almighty God rules this world. He is not an absentee God. His band is ever on the throttle of human affairs. He is everywhere present in the concerns of time. “His eyes behold, his eyelids try the children of men.” This lesson needs to be emphasized, iterated and reiterated in the ears of men of modern times and brought to bear with cumulative force on the consciences of this generation whose eyes have no vision for the eternal things, whose ears are deaf toward God.
Talking to God: Theology of Prayer
Theology of prayer by
Thomas L. Constable
Talking to God: Theology of Prayer explores Why a theology of prayer? Because counterfeit prayer abounds, we need Scripture’s guidance, writes Thomas Constable. Praying as God desires requires considering what God has revealed about it. As we give prayer our careful attention, we gain greater understanding of what he intends it to be. Constable details the different forms of communication God invites us to use. He identifies the counterfeits that pass for prayer, discusses the conditional nature of prayer, and explains why some prayers seem to go unanswered.
