"The Possibilities of Prayer" by E.M. Bounds focuses on guidelines for establishing and maintaining a vital prayer life. Bounds does a masterful job of explaining that we have not because we ask not: God"s promises are dependent and conditioned upon prayer. He also discusses how God"s promises are specific, personal and directed towards individuals. The answers to His promises are the result of earnest prayer. Nothing is too hard for God! God can withhold nothing from faith and prayer. Undue worry and anxiety about earthly concerns can be eliminated by prayer. God is concerned about the smallest things in our lives. Bounds also explains how Great faith enables Christ to do great things. In the anxious world of today, our Heavenly Father can, through prayer, quiet every distraction, hush every anxiety, and lift every care from care-enslaved lives. Other points brought out by Bounds include that God’s presence and power will be most felt in the prayer closet, answers to prayer result from abiding in Christ, and that Christ requires specific praying and responds to specific prayers with specific answers. In this book, readers will also learn that prayer is simply asking God to do for us what He has promised us He will do if we ask Him. A lot of power is packed into this small book. Read, enjoy, and be challenged and encouraged!
