Without a doubt, prayer is the greatest art in the world, a holy art that needs only to be learned and practiced.
The greatest difference between effective and anemic Christianity is prayer. The most fruitful soul winners are those who make much of prayer. The greatest preachers of the gospel and missionaries of the cross are those who pray long and often. Everyday believers who walk in the power and miracles of God are people who see prayer not as a series of isolated acts but as an attitude of life.
To succeed at prayer is to realize that heaven is not far from earth. It is the ability to bend the arm of God.
Join with best-selling author Dr. Herbert Lockyer as he sets out to study the nature of prayer and to better understand the simplicity and effectiveness of heartfelt communication with God.
About the author
DR. HERBERT LOCKYER (1886-1984) was a preacher and Bible teacher, and the author of more than fifty books. His best-known titles include All the Men of the Bible and All the Women of the Bible. Dr. Lockyer held pastorates in Scotland and England for twenty-five years. As pastor of Leeds Road Baptist Church in Bradford, England, he became a leader in the Keswick Higher Life Movement, which emphasized the significance of living in the fullness of the Holy Spirit. This led to an invitation to speak at the Moody Bible Institute's fiftieth anniversary in 1936. His warm reception at that event led to his ministry in the United States. He received honorary degrees from both the Northwestern Evangelical Seminary and the International Academy in London.
