nearly FREE EBOOK FRIDAY (E.M. Bounds)
December 18, 2015
I made a goal at the beginning of 2015 to make prayer a more consistent part of my life (Training Plans). I don’t feel like I have made much progress in that area. Although, I did read the very insightful and challenging book on prayer, The Necessity of Prayer by E.M. Bounds as a result of my desire to improvement my prayer life.
I enjoyed The Necessity of Prayer so much that I am currently reading Power through Prayer by E.M. Bounds. I am more convinced than ever that the Church doesn’t need better methods; it needs better men. The Church needs men, distinguished by Bible-reading and prayer, possessing the soldier element, to live the Christian life in love and kindness.
I highly recommend E.M. Bounds. You can get The Complete Works of E.M. Bounds for $0.99. It is not free but fairly close. I hope you enjoy his writing as much as I have.
A DEVOTED LIFE 
Thanks so much for this stimulating post. i appreciate the challenge you laid down. I plan to order the book upon your recommendation. I know that it will be a blessing and that I will be changed. How providential that you should post it right before we begin the New Year.
Thanks again for the likes and so much more.
I so hope that you enjoy E.M. Bounds. I trust it will be a good words for a new year. Keep up the good work on your blog. I so enjoy it. God Bless! JD
Indeed, the Word of God is the fulcrum upon which the lever of prayer is placed. ‘Never thought of it that way. But when we base our prayers on the truths and promises of scripture, we do indeed add impact to our requests, because we’re praying according to God’s will (1 John 5:14-15). ‘Love the visual of lever and fulcrum! Thank you, JD.
Amen! I loved the word picture of the fulcrum as well. It really provides a practical visual of what we are doing when we pray. Nancy- I so hope you have a wonderful Christmas. God Bless! JD
